They took all the elements of a manufacturing
system-- people, machines, tooling, and
products-- and arranged them in a continuous
system for manufacturing the Model T
automobile.

Taiichi Ohno
All we are doing is looking at the time line from the
moment the customer gives us an order to the point when
we collect the cash.
Customer Customer Customer Customer
Order Order Order Order
Waste
Product Product Product Product
Shipment Shipment Shipment Shipment
Long Long Long Long T TT T
And we are reducing
that time line by
removing the non-value
added wastes.
Taiichi Ohno, 1988

Lean Management
During 1980s Americans realized that the
things are not the same anymore.
Japanese were not only making better
cars, they were also doing it cheaply.
Toyota was making cars in America at
25% less cost.
Severely denting American market share.
23
Lean Management Philosophy
An outcome of study of Toyota Production Systems, by a
team of researchers in USA, led by James Womack &
Daniel Jones.
Their books detailing how Toyota has emerged, as the
worlds most efficient automaker popularized Lean
Manufacturing as a new manufacturing philosophy.
The first book was published in 1990 as
The Machine That Changed the World
24
Lean Management
Popularized by another book in 1996.
Lean Thinking - Banish Waste
and Create Wealth
in Your Corporation.

Jim Womacks Comments
We also know that lean thinking is spreading
across the world.
This summer, when Dan Jones, Jose Ferro, and
I visited India for the first Lean Summits, we
were amazed to find some of the leanest
operating practices we have ever encountered
outside of Toyota City.
26
In Order to Survive
We have to make our Organizations Lean
by understanding the Lean philosophy
and promoting Lean Thinking
throughout the organization .
