A hands-on guide to adapting Lean principles and the Toyota
Production System to high-mix/low-volume environments, Lean
Production for the Small Company uses charts, pictures, and
easy-to-understand language to describe the methods needed to
improve processes and eliminate waste. It walks readers through the
correct order of implementation and describes problems and pitfalls
along with time-tested solutions. Explaining how to incorporate
existing systems into a Lean strategy, the book starts with the
fundamentals and builds on them to describe the full range of tools
and processes needed to implement Lean. It outlines how to design
factories for Lean manufacturing and demonstrates how to remove
variations within business and manufacturing processes to achieve a
smooth continuous flow of product that delivers your product on
time to customers. The tools, methods, and ideals discussed are
applicable in any industry and all parts of your business from
manufacturing and sales to human resources. The text unveils new
methods and tools that can help you reduce inventory, improve
inventory turns, and facilitate raw material flow through the
factory. It details how to use customer order demands to schedule
the production floor, rather than using estimated production
schedules. It also considers the accounting process and explains
how to improve your cash-to-cash cycle time. Drawing on the
author's decades of experience transforming high-mix plants to
Lean, the text brings together coverage of the tools and processes
that have made Toyota so successful. All the chapters in this book,
when implemented, will result in a culture change that will
transform your company into a learning organization that
continuously eliminates waste and improves its processes.
