The Modern Theory of the Toyota Production System by Phillip Marksberry Pdf

Numerous books have been written about Toyota's approach to workplace improvement; however, most describe Toyota's practices as case studies or stories. Designed to aid in the implementation of Lean manufacturing, The Modern Theory of the Toyota Production System: A Systems Inquiry of the World’s Most Emulated and Profitable Management System explains that your organization already has what it takes to succeed with TPS and what’s probably missing is balance. Bridging the gap between implementation and theory, this text is the first of its kind to use systems theory to study how the pieces of the Toyota Production System (TPS) work together to achieve this much needed balance. Lean practitioners will learn how to use system theory to improve overall decision making when applying Lean or Toyota-like management systems. Explaining that the glue that holds the pieces of TPS together is just as important as the pieces themselves, the book provides you with invaluable guidance in the implementation of Lean manufacturing from a management perspective. It outlines a blueprint to help you develop a clear understanding of how the pieces of TPS need to come together so you can achieve something greater than what’s possible with the individual pieces.

Toyota Production System by Y. Monden Pdf

The Just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing system is an internal system in use by its founder, Toyota Motor Corporation, but it has taken on a new look. Toyota Production System, Second Edition systematically describes the changes that have occurred to the most efficient production system in use today. Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 1983, Toyota has integrated JIT with computer integrated manufacturing technology and a strategic informa tion system. The JIT goal of producing the necessary items in the necessary quantity at the necessary time is an internal driver of production and operations management. The addition of computer integrated technology (including expert systems by artificial intelligence) and information systems technology serve to further reduce costs, increase quality, and improve lead time. The new Toyota production system considers how to adapt production schedules to the demand changes in the marketplace while satisfying the goals of low cost, high quality, and timely delivery. The first edition of this book, Toyota Production System, published in 1983, is the basis for this book. It was translated into many languages including Spanish, Russian, Italian, Japanese, etc., and has played a definite role in inspiring production management systems throughout the world.

The Toyota Template by Phillip Ledbetter Pdf

Much has been written about Toyota over the last 30 years focusing on both its products (superior vehicles), and its operational excellence based on its Toyota Production System (TPS). The Toyota Template details the critical concepts and methods that Taiichi Ohno implemented in developing the Toyota Production System. This book is different, however, regarding the parallels it draws between Toyota’s pre-TPS condition and companies today who are attempting to become more efficient and Lean. In view of efficiency, excellence, culture, and general "Leanness," many organizations are in the same position as Toyota prior to implementing what was once called the "Ohno System." The building of TPS, with the goal to eliminate waste, evolved as problems were encountered and solutions put in place. A wonderful byproduct of these years of work was the growth of a problem-solving culture throughout Toyota that is unique in the business world. Currently, the Toyota Production System is well established. Though constantly improving, the historical picture is visible. The question many have tried to answer for their own companies is "how can they achieve world class efficiency?" The Toyota Template answers this question. This book: Explains the critically important elements of the Toyota Production System. Analyzes the sequence of implementation as the system developed. Places these elements in a logical order of implementation based on the history and current knowledge. In addition, it addresses the effect of each element on the culture. The author was prompted to write this book because of his personal observations of the failure of most attempts to develop Lean systems. What makes Toyota stand out is not any of the individual elements – It is crucially important to have all the elements together as a system. Most attempts have been focused on bits and pieces of the elements, or the tools. The Toyota Template is about the relevance of the Toyota Production System to "any type of business" today. It is not an all-inclusive explanation of every aspect of TPS. Rather, this book succinctly identifies the key elements, places them in a logical, sequential order of implementation, and explains how each contributed to the formation of the Toyota culture.

The Evolution of the Toyota Production System by Kazuo Wada Pdf

This book utilizes historical evidence to describe the development of the Toyota Production System (TPS). The development of TPS typifies the transformation of production control in interchangeable industries in the twentieth century. Much of the extensive literature available on TPS has been geared toward describing TPS from a number of different perspectives. Many researchers consider TPS distinct from American mass-production systems. Although TPS (and, more generally, the production control systems in the Japanese assembly industry) has differentiated itself from similar US production systems, the evolution of TPS is largely attributable to attempts to learn from, imitate, and modify pre-World War II US production methods. Through these efforts, TPS has achieved levels of efficiency in Japan comparable to those of US production systems. Additionally, a reliance on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in relation to production control has facilitated the development of TPS. The literature on TPS, however, has largely ignored the vital relationship between ICT and production control due to an inordinate focus on “Kanban.” Kanban translates to “signboard” in Japanese but is used to refer to an organic linkage between work in preceding and subsequent production processes. This book sheds light on the development of a fully digitalized Bill of Materials (BOM) at Toyota, behind its Kanban and production control.

Evolution of Toyota Production System by Taiichi Ohno Pdf

It was the oil shock in the fall of 1973 that drew attention to our Toyota Production system. This was because in the slow growth economy which followed, Toyota Motor Company showed a relatively stronger resistance to recession than other companies.The Toyota approach was the result of many years trial and error as searched for a way to survive in competition with the mass production system already well established in Europe and America. It is a product of the Toyota history which started with Mr. Sakichi Toyota and has continued through Kiichiro Toyota to the present.From the beginning we felt we had some original ideas particularly suited to the economic environment of Japan. So, we did not want other companies especially those of the advanced countries, to understand it easily. Consequently we practiced the system and other techniques without publicizing them. Thus it is only natural that our system was not understood easily. Recently I heard often from the outside that there seems to be some sort of secret in the Toyota production system and in "kanban", which is the method of operating the system. We have received many direct and indirect inquiries from many people on the Toyota method of making things. They were not only from people in business, but from professors who are teaching production management in the universities and management consultants.We are grateful for this interest on the Toyota Production system. However as the attention grows and as more people in the business in this country study the subject, there seems to be misunderstanding in some cases or, sometimes certain convenient portion are abused. One specific example is to make a shortcut conclusion that Toyota Production System is a "Kanban system", but factually wrong. "Kanban" is one of the operational means of the Toyota Production System and just the adoption of "Kanban" alone does not mean that productivity will rise accordingly. And the intent of improving the record of a parent firm by "harassing the subcontractors" is entirely out of character with the idea of the Toyota Production System.So in order for others to understand and apply Toyota Production system correctly I have written this book. In order to ensure correct understanding, emphasis was placed on the ideas and principles involved rather than giving many specific examples. I would like to tell this to readers in advance.
