"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
Known as the JIT bible in Japan, JIT Implementation Manual -- The
Complete Guide to Just-in-Time Manufacturing presents the genius of
Hiroyuki Hirano, a top international consultant with vast experience
throughout Asia and the West. Encyclopedic in scope, this six-volume
practical reference provides unparalleled information on every aspect of
JIT-- the waste-eliminating, market-oriented production system. This
historic, yet timeless classic is just as crucial in today's
fast-changing global marketplace as when it was first published in Japan
20 years ago.
Volume 6: JIT Implementation Forms and Charts provides a
comprehensive diagnostic tool for JIT operations and includes a wealth
of checklists, memos, and essential forms for recognizing waste in
operations and implementing the 5S's. It includes engineering forms for
line-balancing, skills training, visual controls, changeover
improvement, mistake-proofing, and standard operations. This
indispensable resource also supplies a set of forms and charts useful
when introducing and promoting JIT or lean to your plant and includes
the JIT management forms that Hirano uses to implement "JIT Awareness
Revolutions."
