The delivery of real bottom-line results from manufacturing
improvements has proven to be much harder than expected for most
companies. TQM, Zero-Defect Manufacturing, and Business Process
Re-engineering have dropped off the landscape for taking much too
long and failing to deliver the promised results. Lean Six Sigma is
now experiencing the same fundamental difficulty. Delineating a
quantitative approach, Lean Manufacturing: Business Bottom-Line
Based shows you how to revitalize Lean Six Sigma by aligning it
with your business bottom line and thus delivering results that
your executives, business leaders, and customers expect.
Written by an expert who has transformed product design and
manufacturing at companies ranging from Maytag and Visteon to
General Electric, the book demonstrates that an awareness of
manufacturing business metrics is absolutely essential for every
lean manufacturing practitioner. The author has seen first-hand the
limitation of traditional lean manufacturing driven by business
bottom lines. He outlines case studies linking world events and
manufacturing efficiency and presents lean manufacturing strategies
and techniques designed to accelerate responses to current and
future events on the floors of the world s manufacturing
facilities.
Typically, advice on lean manufacturing comes in the form of
techniques regarding a particular tool or tool-box, yet the factory
floor, like everything in the global community, is profoundly
driven by business bottom lines. This book presents a systematic
approach to improve business bottom lines through identifying and
eliminating waste, and adding value and fulfillment by flowing the
product at the demand of the customer.
