This course explains the basic mechanisms of the Toyota production system, examines production as a functional network of processes and operations, and then discusses the mechanism necessary to make JIT possible in any manufacturing plant.
It also demonstrates new ways to think about profit, inventory, waste, and productivity and explains the principles of leveling, standard work procedures, multi-machine handling and supplier relations.
The course also examines the management system that drives the world's leading auto maker. The development of JIT production at Toyota and the company's achievement of unprecedented levels of productivity were made possible by its supportive, integrated management system.
