Understand the differences and similarities between techniques of Lean Manufacturing and Theory of Constraints (TOC) as applied to field of manufacturing management
This document provides an overview of Vector Consulting Group (VCG) and their use of the Theory of Constraints (TOC) philosophy to improve performance in various industry clusters. VCG employs TOC to help organizations achieve significant gains. The document then discusses various TOC concepts, comparing traditional approaches like Lean/Six Sigma to the TOC way of production management. It covers topics like limiting work-in-process, reducing lead times, implementing a priority system, and using a focusing mechanism to continuously improve the system.
World population is growing continuously with more people living on the Earth than ever before. In 2007, humanity’s total ecological footprint was estimated at 1.5 planet Earths. Resources are becoming increasingly valuable as the Earth is the only source till date and others planets are still to become a viable source of these resources.
Projections estimate that we will need the equivalent of two planets by 2030 to meet our annual demands. The only way, we can reduce our footprint is by producing more with less, and consuming better, wiser and less - the way forward is better and 'frugal' choices!
In this report, we present the trends that encourage better choices; trends in Frugal Innovations, 'Jugaad' and Do-It-Yourself are explored to see how and where we can make our better choices for the future.
We conclude our report with 3 thought provoking future scenarios.

Systematic Innovation in Software Using TRIZMichael Kalika
Someone somewhere has already solved your problem or a very similar problem, and all we need to do is apply the same principle to the current problem and solve it similarly…
TRIZ is Theory of the Resolution of Invention-related Tasks. It is a a problem-solving, analysis and forecasting tool/ framework derived from the study of patterns of invention in the global patent literature that was developed in USSR and “immigrated” to the West after “perestrojka” period in 1990s. It is a well-structured inventive problem-solving approach which replaces the unsystematic trial-and-error method used in the search for solutions. This helps in overcoming psychological inertia and “stuckness” which can impede reaching the best possible design.
As leaders, we are often facilitating discussions as a part of designing new products, architectures, system design or problem solving.
In this lecture you will learn about what TRIZ is and how to apply its fundamental principles in Software Engineering and Architecture world.
Automation, advanced manufacturing, AI, and the move to e-commerce are radically changing the nature of employment, while the gig economy is forcing companies to redefine what it means to be workers. People of all walks of life need to brace for the change they will see in their fields — and plan for positions that do not yet exist but will be a key component of the growth of a new global economy.
During my Global Issues in Marketing course (BAMK-495). We where assigned the task of conducting an innovation analysis of Philips the Netherlands based electronics company. Our team came up with a wonderful presentation that capture how Philips is innovative with their products and how they plan to innovate their products in the future.

Just in Time System: A Study and Reviewvivatechijri
Just in Time has been a very popular operation strategy partly because of its success in Japanese
industry. JIT is a methodologies used to enhance manufacturers’ competitiveness through inventory and lead
time reduction. JIT implementation can involve a series of incremental steps and missteps, before the desired
outcome is achieved. How many people in the automobile industry, manufacturing industry, and electrical
industry can truly say that they have not heard about JIT? JIT implementation improves performance through
lower inventory levels, reduced quality cost and greater customer responsiveness. This paper will examine the
roll of a company’s resource. This paper present a literature review on a small manufacturing that altered its
resources configuration from a producer- consumer relationship separated by a buffer, to a simultaneity
constraint. The result of this paper shows that the removal of the buffer system increased the manufacturing
system’s need for mix flexibility and indicates that JIT system is success full, and operating JIT system can lead
to many advantages to the case company
The Toyota Company is the biggest auto-manufacture in the world. T.docxssusera34210
The Toyota Company is the biggest auto-manufacture in the world. The company headquarters are located in Japan but has global plants in Europe, North America, Australia and Asia. The company has indulged in a customer driven philosophy that has kept top amid economic recession in Europe and North America, its chief customers. This philosophy is known by the company employees as the Toyota Production system (TPS). The three main objectives of this philosophy includes: providing their customers with the best quality vehicles in terms of cost and timely delivery, to treat their employees in such a way that they are satisfies with their jobs and ensure job security. Thirdly, TPS intends to give the company flexibility to respond to market while recording returns through cost reduction measures (Wilson, 2012).
According to Toyota (2012) TPS has the responsibility of minimizing wastes and overloading its employees. It works to ensure that the whole process of production through distribution flows smoothly and efficiently. The integration of human and mechanical resources to ensure maximum quality of the cars as well as improving efficiency and reduction of wastes is the foundation philosophy of the Toyota Company and defines best kaizen. To achieve this, the employees continuously work to improve the standards of increasing their efficiency and waste elimination. This is called kaizen in Japanese ‘or change for the better’ in English. The kaizen was invented by Toyota decades ago and have since acquired a universal acceptance. Just in time production was also coined by the same company in an effort to respond to the forces of demand and supply. The whole process is initiated once the customer places an order to the company. The company then moves to produce the exact parts ordered, assemble and dispatch the car. This limits the production of inventory since production is proportional to the magnitude of the demand (Toyota. (2012).
Lean Production 2
For instance, if the company received a daily order of 400 cars and happen to be operating in 920 minutes daily, the takt time (from German ‘taktzeit’ meaning cycle time) will amount to 2.3 minutes. If this time is operated at a minimum, then the resources will be increased.
Jidoka is a Japanese word for automation. The Toyota Company defines the word as 'automation with a human touch'. This allows all employees the responsibility to stop the production process in case he or she identifies a problem within the production line (Toyota, 2012).
Lean Production Philosophy
Lean production encompasses the reduction of wastages through labor, inventory management, time, space with the primary objective of delivering high quality products. This strategy strives at responding to the market needs through introduction of the right product in the right place in the quantity in the right time. In turn, the production process helps in the realization of reduced wastes and responds to fluctuating market demands. The pr ...
How to Select High Impact Use Cases to Drive a Successful Network Automation ...Itential
As organizations engage on their initiatives to deliver network automation at scale, the prioritization of use cases becomes an essential component to maximize and sustain delivery of benefits to the business. Automating large use cases can have a huge impact, but the time and cost to automate those cases means that benefits will take time to manifest. “Low hanging fruit” use cases can show quick success, but the benefits on their own may be modest. This raises a critical question – How do organizations select the network automation uses cases that provide the most impact?
In Itential’s experience working with hundreds of service providers and enterprises across the world to automate their networks, their team of automation experts has gained first-hand experience in the evaluation, implementation, and execution of thousands of network automation use cases.
Explore what goes into successful use case selection such as:
• The process you should take when selecting the use cases that will drive the most impact to your business.
• The most popular use cases organizations like yours are starting with.
• How to weigh the benefits of tackling low-hanging fruit vs. making big bets.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
