System Methodology

Traditional TPS (Toyota Production System), the foundation of JIT (Just in Time), has contributed to global business in the latter half of the 20th century as a Japanese production management system methodology. At present, Japanese companies are endeavoring to survive in a competitive market by expanding their global production, achieving globally consistent levels of quality, and carrying out simultaneous new model launches. An advanced production management principle, "Advanced TPS", has been proposed, involving the systematization of Japanese production management methodologies as a strategic tool for global production. The effectiveness of the proposed "Advanced TPS" was verified at Toyota Motor Corporation.

Advanced Production

An advanced production management principle, the New Japan Production Model to further advance TPS (Toyota Production System) called the Advanced TPS is proposed, which involves the systematization of Japanese production management methodology for strategic production. The New Japan Production Modela new management technology principle, proposed and verified in previous studieswas developed through establishing a Global Production Technology and Management Model based on New JIT utilizing three core technologies (TMS, TDS, and TPS), which relates to hardware systems, and Science TQM, which relates to software systems. Formation of the model through utilization of these core technologies signifies the high linkage of business processes that enables a speedy production cycle by using Intelligent Quality Control System, TPS-QAS, Highly Reliable Production System, V-MICS, Renovating Work Environment, TPS-IWQM and Bringing up Intelligent Operators, V-IOS. Effectiveness of the proposed New Japan Production Model was verified at Toyota Motor Corporation.

Push And Pull

Mass customization (MC) is an advanced production mode in the 21st century that combines two opposite production patterns -- customization production and mass production. It keeps low production cost and fast delivery time, while meeting individual customers needs. Firstly, via analyzing the typical production management patterns (material requirement planning (MRP)/ just in time (JIT)), and based on the two strategies of modularization and postponement, the paper presented a push/pull manufacturing model to meet the demands of MC. This model integrates the two different production patterns (push and pull) to reduce inventory, production costs and production time. Before the customer order decoupling point (CODP), common components and selective components are produced via push of plan in presence of inventory. After the CODP, customization production is conducted by pull of orders.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to compare principles from the original Toyota Production System (TPS), the Toyota Way 2001 and Kaizen philosophy with principles derived from Japanese Zen Buddhism. The paper would also like to enlarge the debate concerning some lessons learnt from Japanese culture in order to avoid Lean implementation failures. Design/methodology/approach The original English version of Taiichi Ohno’s book dedicated to the TPS, the Toyota Way 2001 and other relevant papers regarding Kaizen were reviewed and analyzed. The principles that emerged from the review of this literature were then compared with similar philosophical principles from Japanese Soto Zen Buddhism. The literature concerning Zen philosophy was methodically analyzed and categorized using the content analysis. Findings The results of this research show many theoretical parallelisms as well as lessons for practitioners, in particular referring to principles such as Jidoka, just-in-time, waste identification and elimination, challenge, Kaizen, Genchi Genbutsu, respect for people and teamwork. Research limitations/implications Analysis and results are mainly based on the literature that was found, reviewed and categorized, along with the knowledge of authors on Zen philosophy. Results could differ depending on the literature reviewed and categorized. Practical implications The results of this research bring food for thought to practitioners in terms of lessons learnt from Japanese culture, Toyota principles and management style in order to avoid Lean implementation failures. Originality/value This is one of the first papers which compares Lean-TPS and Kaizen principles with the Zen philosophy to try to learn lessons for succeeding in Lean implementation.

Just-in-time JIT, as the name implies, is to produce goods just-in-time for use or sale. It is a Japanese manufacturing management method developed by TaiichiOhno, father of Toyota production system in the 1970s which had its motivation in the Japanese urge to develop better and efficient technique capable of rebuilding their economy after the 2nd World War by focusing on elimination of waste in all forms. In the case of service processing distribution network the customers always needs the right material at right time in right quantity and in right quality for achieving this goal for customer satisfaction the service processing distributors always tries to perform better and better by using new methodology. In this research we will tries to find the role of JIT for achieving customer satisfaction in service processing and distribution network.

In this study, the author has developed a "new production management technology system, Advanced TPS" based on a further evolution of the fundamentals of TPS (Toyota Production System). Advanced TPS was developed through establishing a global production technology and management system based on New JIT, a new management technology principle. The validity of the proposed Advanced TPS was verified at Toyota Motor Corporation.
