The document discusses just-in-time (JIT) and lean operations. It originated in the 1960s at Toyota and was later adopted by other automakers. JIT aims to increase productivity and quality while reducing costs and waste. Benefits include reduced throughput times, inventory, and resource needs. Key elements are eliminating waste, quality at the source, balanced workflow, continuous improvement, and focusing on customer needs. The document outlines various JIT concepts and their application to both manufacturing and non-manufacturing operations.
Operation management, toyota production systemOmar Hamdan
The success of Toyota Motor Company is due to the unique reduction systems that focus on continuous improvement and just in time management. Toyota has created a decentralised structure that encourages employee participation and team working. Toyota incorporated concepts just as supply chain management and inventory management to create high quality automobiles and gain a competitive edge in the highly competitive global automobile market. Toyota’s success and its lean manufacturing philosophy have been widely studied. The Toyota manufacturing system is centred on achieving a high level of productivity. The company has a unique approach to problem solving and it continuously trains its employees.
CPI uses four very important principles for a total improvement to any program/process.
- Lean (Eliminate Waste)
- Six Sigma (Minimize Variation)
- Theory of Constraints (Strengthening Weakest Link)
- Training within Industry (Standard Work)
You can’t just use one……When all four are used together, you can truly see the difference!!!

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

2. Developments of JIT and
Lean Operations
1960’s: Developed as Toyota Production
System by Taiichi Ohno and his colleagues
1970’s: U.S. and European auto makers
began to apply JIT to improve quality and
productivity
1990’s and beyond: Expanded the JIT
concept to streamline all types of operations
3. Definition of JIT
A set of techniques to increase
productivity, improve quality, and
reduce cost of an operations
A management philosophy to promote
elimination of waste and continuous
improvement of productivity
5. Expected Benefits of JIT
Reduction in throughput times
Reduction in WIP
Improvement in quality
Improvement in productivity
Reduction in resource requirements
Improvement in customer satisfaction
improvements in return on assets
6. Main Elements of JIT
Elimination of waste
Quality at the source
Balanced and flexible work flow
Respect for people
Continuous improvement (Kaizen)
Simplification and visual control
Focus on customer needs
Partnerships with key suppliers
8. Wastes
Anything that exceeds the minimum resources
needed for the appropriate value
Toyota’s seven deadly wastes:
•Overproduction (excessive production resources)
•Inventory
•Waiting
•Transportation
•Processing
•Motion
•Defective parts
10. Importance of Inventory
Reduction
Inventory costs money - carrying costs,
obsolescence costs, and opportunity costs
Inventory covers up problems and
bottlenecks.
Inventory reduction forces organization
and employees to eliminate sources of
problems and work as a team.
11. Quality at the Source
Jidoka – autonomation (automatic
detection of defects, e.g., Poka-yoke)
Employee empowerment
Statistical process control
Prevention orientation (elimination of root
causes through PDSA cycle)
12. Balanced and Flexible
Work Flow
Yo-i-don (ready, set, go) system
Stable production schedule
Set-up time reduction
Flow-shop and cellular layouts
Shojinka (flexible & multi-skilled workforce)
Teamwork
Total productive maintenance (TPM)
13. Respect for People
Productivity improvement needs employee support
Demonstrate by
• providing cross-training opportunities
• creating a safe and equitable work environment
• encouraging people to achieve their potential by
giving them greater responsibility and authority
• promoting teamwork (formal and informal)
• developing partnerships with unions
15. Simplification and Visual
Control
Standard and simple product designs
Andon boards
Kanban pull system
Flag systems
Music as signals
Performance display systems
16. Focus on Customer Needs
Customer needs determine the “value” of
a product or service
Be responsive to customers needs
(present and future)
Strive to “delight,” not just “satisfy”
customers
17. Partnerships with Suppliers
Reduce number of suppliers
Use long-term contracts
Emphasize price, delivery, and services
Improve communication
Share information
Develop local just-in-time delivery
Provide technical support to suppliers
18. JIT Implementation
Top management commitment
Steering committee
Education program
Pilot project planning
Employee training
Pilot implementation
Pilot post mortem
Feedback to steering committee
Expansion to next project
19. Advancements in JIT (JIT II)
Backwards Integration of staff and line
functions to suppliers (e.g., purchasing)
Requires EDI or web access to materials
and logistics systems
On-site supplier representative(s) with
transaction processing authority
Goal: link suppliers’ cycle to firm’s cycle to
mutually reduce wait and move times
20. How Can JIT Be Applied to Non-
Manufacturing Operations?
21. JIT for Non-Manufacturing
Operations (Lean Operations)
Implement demand-pull operations
Eliminate unnecessary activities
Standardize process flows
Increase process flexibility
Reorganize physical layouts
Upgrade housekeeping and workplace
organization
22. JIT for Non-Manufacturing
Operations (Lean Operations)
Develop supplier partnership networks
Level work load
Organize problem-solving groups
Improve quality
Develop effective suggestion systems
Cross-train employees
Promote teamwork
24. Toyota’s Secrets of Success
(Steve Spear, HBR, May 2004)
There is no substitute for direct
observation
Proposed changes should always be
structured as experiments
Workers and managers should experiment
as frequently as possible
Managers should coach, not fix
