Contains answers to every problem a JIT professional will face and multiple options for every stage of JIT implementation 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. Hiroyuki Hirano, February 1989, from the Introduction Volume 1 – The Just-In-Time Production System Volume 2 – Waste and the 5S’s Volume 3 – Flow Manufacturing – Multi-Process Operations and Kanban Volume 4 – Leveling – Changeover and Quality Assurance Volume 5 – Standardized Operations – Jidoka and Maintenance/Safety Volume 6 – JIT Implementation Forms and Charts While each of the volumes is available individually, we have affordably priced the set to honor Hirano’s recommendation that readers avoid taking a piecemeal approach! The overall flow is the most important aspect of production, and the key ingredient for creating a good overall flow is comprehensive improvement! . Catalog no.
