and Mass Production

In Numbers

Reducing production time from 12.5 hours before to 93 minutes

 

More than 15 million Model Ts were manufactured in all, reaching a rate of 9,000 to 10,000 cars a day

 

By the time the 10 millionth car was produced, half of all cars in the world were Fords

 

At a price of just $260

  • Standardization of products, components, equipment, process, tasks and tasks of control 
  • Incentive schemes based on results
  • Extensive reliance on rules and procedures

Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black.

Toyota Production System

The lean manufacturing system considers as waste the expenditure of resources for any goal other than the creation of value for the end customer

The main objectives are to design out overburden (muri) and inconsistency (mura), and to eliminate waste (muda).

  1. Waste of overproduction (largest waste)
  2. Waste of time on hand (waiting)
  3. Waste of transportation
  4. Waste of processing itself
  5. Waste of stock at hand
  6. Waste of movement
  7. Waste of making defective products
  8. Waste of underutilized workers

Principles

Long-term philosophy

The right process will produce the right results

    * Bring problems to the surface.

    * Get quality right from the start. (Jidoka)

Add value to the organization by developing your people and partners

    * Grow leaders who live the philosophy.
    * Extend to partners and suppliers.
Continuously solving root problems drives organizational learning
    * Go and see for yourself (Genchi Genbutsu, 現地現物);
    * Make decisions considering all options (Nemawashi, 根回し); implement decisions rapidly;
    * Relentless reflection (Hansei, 反省)

    * Continuous improvement that never stop(Kaizen, 改善).

If you think ... the best you know today, but which is to be improved tomorrow – you get somewhere.  But if you think of standards as confining, then progress stops.

Henry Ford

The Lean Startup

"Lean Startup" is a system for developing a business or product in the most efficient way possible to reduce the risk of failure.

Treat all product and business ideas as assumptions (or hypotheses) that must be validated by rapid experimentation in the marketplace.

 

 

Rely on scientific experimentation, iterative product releases, and customers feedback to generate validated learning.

Product/Market Fit

The only thing that matters is getting to product/market fit.

Marc Andreesen

We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts. It’s our job every day to make every important aspect of the customer experience a little bit better.

A relentless barrage of ‘why’s’ is the best way to prepare your mind to pierce the clouded veil of thinking caused by the status quo. Use it often.
