Lean Manufacturing
Toyota Production System (TPS) introduced the concept of Lean several decades
ago and this turned Toyota into an industrial and automotive giant. As a
consequence manufacturing organizations world-wide accepted TPS as a model for
eliminating waste, since that is the ultimate goal of industry in order to survive in a
competitive environment.
Toyota have identified seven types of wastes – Over production, Waiting,
Transporting, Inappropriate processing, Unnecessary inventory, Unnecessary
motions and Defects which are detrimental to Supply Chain performance.
“The principal objective of Lean Manufacturing is the elimination of all wastes
which is facilitated by JIT systems. JIT makes use of a “pull” strategy as its
operating principle as opposed to a “push” strategy.”
This means that there is no production until a customer has placed his order. If the
system is to work efficiently it is essential that there should be a smooth flow of
information upstream through the Supply Chain along with a synchronized flow of
material, downstream to the customer.

15. 15
 What a customer is willing to pay towards a product is its value, in the context of
Lean.
 Anything that does not add value to a product from a customer perspective is
called waste.
 It is thought provoking to learn about Toyota’s Lean Strategy – “Brilliant process
management is our strategy. We get brilliant results from average people
managing brilliant processes.
 We observe that our competitors often get average (or worse) results from
brilliant people managing broken processes”.
 The book, “The Machine that Changed the World” had such a global impact that
two of its authors Prof. Jim Womack (USA) and Prof. Daniel Jones (UK) started a
study of how several western businesses had emulated and implemented the
Lean approach in different sectors.
 The success stories were chronicled in the book ‘Lean Thinking’
