Introduction
Characteristics
Eliminate waste
The 5 S
Remove Variability
Sources
JIT
Toyota Production System
Kanban
A corporate system designed to produce
output within the minimum lead time
and at the lowest total cost by
continuously identifying and eliminating
all forms of corporate waste and
variance.
 JIT is a philosophy of continuous and
forced problem solving via a focus on
throughput and reduced inventory
 Lean production supplies the customer
with their exact wants when the
customer wants it without waste
o Other resources such as energy, water,
and air are often wasted
o Efficient, ethical, and socially responsible
production minimizes inputs, reduces
waste
o Traditional “housekeeping” has been
expanded to the 5 Ss
 Sort/segregate – when in doubt, throw it
out
 Simplify/straighten – methods analysis
tools
 Shine/sweep – clean daily
 Standardize – remove variations from
processes
 Sustain/self-discipline – review work and
recognize progress
 Two additional Ss
 Safety – build in good practices
 Support/maintenance – reduce
variability and unplanned downtime
 JIT systems require managers to reduce
variability caused by both internal and
external factors
 Variability is any deviation from the
optimum process
 Inventory hides variability
 Less variability results in less waste
1. Incomplete or inaccurate drawings or
specifications
2. Poor production processes resulting in
incorrect quantities, late, or non-
conforming units
3. Unknown customer demands
 The time it takes to move an order from
receipt to delivery
 The time between the arrival of raw
materials and the shipping of the
finished order is called manufacturing
cycle time
 A pull system increases throughput
 By pulling material in small lots,
inventory cushions are removed,
exposing problems and emphasizing
continual improvement
 Manufacturing cycle time is reduced
 Push systems dump orders on the
downstream stations regardless of the
need
 Powerful strategy for improving
operations
 Materials arrive where they
are needed when they are
needed
 Identifying problems and
driving out waste reduces
costs and variability and
improves throughput
 Requires a meaningful
buyer-supplier relationship
 JIT partnerships exist when a supplier
and purchaser work together to remove
waste and drive down costs
 Four goals of JIT partnerships are:
 Removal of unnecessary activities
 Removal of in-plant inventory
 Removal of in-transit inventory
 Improved quality and reliability
o Kanban is the Japanese word for card
o The card is an authorization for the next
container of material to be produced
o A sequence of kanbans pulls material
through the process
o Many different sorts of signals are used,
but the system is still called
a kanban
 Strong relationship
 JIT cuts the cost of obtaining good
quality because JIT exposes poor quality
 Because lead times are shorter, quality
problems are exposed sooner
 Better quality means fewer buffers and
allows simpler JIT systems to be used
 Continuous improvement
 Build an organizational culture and value
system that stresses improvement of all
processes, kaizen
 Part of everyone’s job
 Respect for people
 People are treated as knowledge workers
 Engage mental and physical capabilities
 Empower employees
 Standard work practice
 Work shall be completely specified as to
content, sequence, timing, and outcome
 Internal and external customer-supplier
connection are direct
 Product and service flows must be simple
and direct
 Any improvement must be made in
accordance with the scientific method at the
lowest possible level of the organization
 Develop partnerships with suppliers
 Educate suppliers
 Eliminate all but value-added activities
 Develop employees
 Make jobs challenging
 Build worker flexibility
 The JIT techniques used in
manufacturing are used in services
 Suppliers
 Layouts
 Inventory
 Scheduling
 Lean Production is the set of activities
that achieves quality production at
minimum cost and inventory
 The flow of material is pulled through the
process by downstream operations
 Lean originated with the Toyota
Production System and its two
philosophies – elimination of waste, and
respect for people
