Review: What is said about JIT is very logical. Many so called Lean companies and consultants trip over Kanban but shouldn’t. Remember, Time is to Manufacturing functionality as to what Gravity is to the functions of the universe. In JIT, the concept of, you only get what you need when you need is relative to time. Example- If an outside supplier of a machining process, sequenced part says he needs three days lead time to setup, machine, degrease, deburr, delivery, then the Kan ban size inventory is three days worth of material; the Time it takes to resupply. As you consume at your takt-time rate, your supplier makes replenishment at his rate of three days. You should synchronize your material storage to match his Process times to supply you with. I have worked at two Japanese world product foot print manufacturers that are Deep Dive Toyota Process System companies that are very Lean mature and supposedly three Lean American companies. The American company’s interpretation of JIT is to literally only order items when needed (that day). Comparing the cultural JIT application differences was disappointing to witness how poorly the American companies applied the TPS approach. At the American companies We had to continually stop the line for no parts or material because we ignorantly didn’t factor in the lead times to resupply us. Their argument was, “It’s supposed be ordered by ‘Just In Time’ processes. We’re supposed to maintain only what’s needed and only order at the time when needed.” This non-sense behavior applied the literal meaning of the words ‘Just In Time’ while ignoring context, logic, principals, and common sense of what was being taught. That’s why Taiichi Ohno said the misapplication of JIT could cause serious damage to your product flow and the entire operations. Line Stoppage with waste everywhere.
Review: A lire absolument : 120 pages d'une grande simplicité - Ce livre est le livre de référence écrit par l'un des pères fondateurs du lean - Par sa simplicité, il montre bien la difficulté de la mise en place du lean que l'on voudrait trop rapidement classer comme une nième technique ou méthode - Par ailleurs, on retrouvera en fond l'histoire de la compagnie TOYOTA Le meilleur que j'ai lu sur le lean
