Synopsis

'Let it be understood at the outset that JIT production is neither one auto maker's production system nor is it the subcontractor's curse. Instead, JIT consists of ideas and technologies for the complete elimination of waste' - Hiroyuki Hirano. Known as the JIT Bible in Japan and authored by a top international consultant with vast experience throughout Asia and the West, this authoritative text is the most comprehensive and detailed manual of its kind for setting up a Just-in-Time manufacturing program from start to finish. This six-volume presentation is filled with practical examples in support of lean implementation and quality maintenance, including more than 200 illustrations, checklists, charts, diagrams, and sample JIT management forms. Encyclopedic in scope, it provides unparalled information on every aspect of JIT, the waste-eliminating, market-oriented production system that is crucial in today's fast-changing global marketplace.

A propos du livre

"This book is a compendium of the experiences and knowledge I have gained during many years of enthusiastic work in battling waste in factories and promoting the development of JIT production. As such, this is a manual for professional consultants. It enables them to tell the plain truth and to overcome vexing problems. This book is not for sale to the general public. I would not want it to be sold that way. It is a book for manufacturing companies that are fighting desperately for survival and that will go to any length to improve their factories and overcome the obstacles to success. One could even call this book a 'bible' for corporate survival."
