Just-in-Time Manufacturing
and Lean Production Q. Just-In-Time Philosophy: Just-in-time manufacturing is defined in many ways, but the most popular is the elimination of
all waste and continuous improvement of productivity. Waste means anything other than the
minimum amount of equipment, parts, space, material, and workers’ time absolutely necessary to
add value to the product. This means there should be no surplus, there should be no safety
stocks, and lead times should be minimal: “If you can’t use it now, don’t make it now.”
Adding value to a product does not mean adding cost. Users are not concerned with the
manufacturer’s cost but only with the price they must pay and the value they receive. Many
activities increase cost without adding value and, as much as possible, these activities should be
eliminated.
Value starts in the marketplace when marketing must decide what the customer wants. Design
engineering must design the product so it will provide the required value to the customer.
Manufacturing engineering must first design a process to make the product and then build the
product according to certain specifications. The loop is complete when the product is delivered
to the customer. Figure shows this loop schematically. If any part of the chain does not add
value for the customer, there is waste.
Q. Waste: � Waste Caused by Poor Product Specification and Design
� Component standardization
� Waste Caused in Manufacturing
Toyota has identified seven important sources of waste in manufacturing. The first four relate
to the design of the manufacturing system and the last three to the operation and management
of the system:
i. The process.
ii. Methods
iii. Movement
iv. Product defects
v. Waiting time
vi. Overproduction
vii. Inventory
� Poke-Yoke (Fail Safe)

Q. Lean Production: Lean production implies understanding and correctly implementing the major enterprise-wide
changes required to truly eliminate or significantly reduce waste in the system. It is the
system-wide philosophical approach used to integrate the system toward an ultimate goal of
maximized customer service with minimal system waste.
Some Lean Production Tools:
� Value stream mapping
� Kaizen
� Takt time
� 5S approach: In general it is a structured approach to organizing the operation for more
effectiveness and less waste that is the overall goal of a lean production system.
a. Sort—determine things that are needed and those not needed in the workplace. Remove
those that are not needed.
b. Straighten—Put the necessary things in good order so they may be readily available when
needed.
c. Shine—clean the area, and keep it clean.
d. Standardize—maintain the order and cleanliness that have been developed.
e. Sustain—Train and develop attitudes to keep the orderliness as an expected and ongoing
part of the organization culture.

Chapter: Total Quality Management Q. What Is Quality? Quality means user satisfaction: that goods or services satisfy the needs and expectations of
the user. To achieve quality according to this definition, we must consider quality and product
policy, product design, manufacturing, and final use of the product.
� Quality and product policy
� Quality and product design
� Quality and manufacturing
� Quality and use- Quality has a number of dimensions, among which are the following:
1. Performance The primary operating characteristics, such as the power of an engine.
Performance implies that the product or service is ready for the customer’s use at
the time of sale. The phrase “fitness for use”—that the product does what it is
supposed to do—is often used to describe this. Three dimensions to performance are
important: reliability, durability, and maintainability. a. Reliability means consistency of performance. It is measured by the length of time a
product can be used before it fails.
b. Durability refers to the ability of a product to continue to function even when subjected
to hard wear and frequent use.
c. Maintainability refers to being able to return a product to operating condition after it
has failed.
2. Features-Secondary characteristics—little extras, such as remote control on a VCR.
3. Conformance-Meeting established standards or specifications. This is
manufacturing’s responsibility.
4. Warranty-An organization’s public promise to back up its products with a guarantee
of customer satisfaction.
5. Service-An intangible generally made up of a number of things such as availability,
speed of service, courtesy, and competence of personnel.
6. Aesthetics-Pleasing to the senses; for example, the exterior finish or the
appearance of a product.
7. Perceived quality-Total customer satisfaction based on the complete experience
with an organization, not just the product. Many intangibles, such as a company’s
reputation or past performance, influence perceived quality.
8. Price. Customers pay for value in what they buy. Value is the sum of the benefits
the customer receives and can be more than the product itself. All the dimensions
listed are elements of value.
Q. Total Quality Management (TQM): TQM is an approach to improving both customer satisfaction and the way organizations do
business. TQM brings together all of the quality and customer-related process improvement
ideas.
Basic Concepts- There are six basic concepts in TQM:
1. A committed and involved management directing and participating in the quality program.
TQM is a continuous process that must become part of the organization’s culture. This requires
senior management commitment.
2. Focus on the customer. This means listening to the customer so goods and services meet
customer needs at a low cost. It means improving design and processes to reduce defects and
cost.

3. Involvement of the total workforce. Total quality management is the responsibility of
everyone in the organization. It means training all personnel in the techniques of product and
process improvement and creating a new culture. It means empowering people.
a. Training
b. Organization
c. Local Ownership/empowerment
d. Teams
4. Continuous process improvement. Processes can and must be improved to reduce cost and
increase quality.
5. Supplier partnering. A partnering rather than adversarial relationship must be established.
6. Performance measures. Improvement is not possible unless there is some way to measure the
results.
- Discover which process needs improvement.
- Evaluate alternative processes.
- Compare actual performance with targets so corrective action can be taken.
- Evaluate employee performance.
- Show trends.
Q. Quality Cost Concepts:
� Costs of Failure - Internal failure costs- The costs of correcting problems that occur while the
goods are still in the production facility. Such costs are scrap, rework, and
spoilage. These costs would disappear if no defects existed in the product before
shipment.
- External failure costs. The costs of correcting problems after goods or services
have been delivered to the customer. They include warranty costs, field servicing
of customer goods and all the other costs associated with trying to satisfy
customer complaints.
� Costs of Controlling Quality - Prevention costs include training, statistical process control, machine
maintenance, design improvements, and quality planning costs.
- Appraisal costs-The costs associated with checking and auditing quality in the
organization. They include product inspection, quality audits, testing, and
calibration.

Q. Variation as a Way of Life:
� Chance variation- 1. People- Poorly trained operators tend to be more inconsistent compared with well-
trained operators.
2. Machine-Well-maintained machines tend to give more consistent output than a
poorly maintained, sloppy machine.
3. Material- Consistent raw materials give better results than poor quality,
inconsistent, ungraded materials.
4. Method- Changes in the method of doing a job will alter the quality.
5. Environment- Changes in temperature, humidity, dust, and so on can affect some
processes.
6. Measurement- Measuring tools that may be in error can cause incorrect
adjustments and poor process performance.
Q. Process Control:
� Control Charts - Run charts
- X (X bar) and R Chart.
� Other Quality Control Tools
- Pareto charts.
- Checksheets.
- Process flowcharts
- Scatterplots.
- Cause-and-effect (fishbone) diagrams
Q. Sample Inspection: There are two inspection procedures: 100% and acceptance sampling.
A 100% inspection means testing every unit in the lot. This is appropriate when the cost of
inspection is less than the cost of any loss resulting from failure of the parts. In cases in which
the cost of failure is exceptionally high, 100% inspection is vital. Products for the medical and
aerospace industry may be checked many times because of the importance of product
performance or the high cost of failure.
Acceptance sampling consists of taking a sample of a batch of product and using it to estimate
the overall quality of the batch. Based on the results of the inspection a decision is made to
reject or accept the entire batch.
Reasons for sampling inspection- � Testing the product is destructive.
� There is not enough time to give 100% inspection to a batch of product
� It is too expensive to test all of the batch.
� Human error is estimated to be as high as 20% when performing long-term repetitive
testing.
Conditions necessary for sampling inspection-
� All items must be produced under similar or identical conditions.
� A random sample of the lot must be taken
� The lot to be sampled should be a homogeneous mixture.
� The batches to be inspected should be large.
Sampling Plans: Sampling plans are designed to provide some assurance of the quality of goods
while taking costs into consideration. Lots are defined as good if they contain no more than a
specified level of defects, called the acceptable quality level (AQL). A plan is designed to have a

minimum allowable number (or %) of defects in the sample in order to accept the lot. Above this
level of defects, the lot will be rejected. � Consumer’s risk
� Producer’s risk
� Cost
Q. ISO 9000:2000 The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has issued a series of standards;
the most recent version is ISO 9000:2000. Established in 1947, ISO continues to be a
nongovernmental organization based in Geneva, Switzerland. The acronym (ISO) is derived from
the Greek “isos” meaning equality, and it is used in many languages. The European Community
(EC) has openly accepted the ISO standards, and they are becoming universally accepted,
especially in North America. Besides being a requirement for doing business in Europe,
customers throughout the world have come to expect a quality standard and to demand ISO
certification of their suppliers.
The two categories of ISO standards are technical standards and management standards.
Technical standards allow interchanging of parts such as light bulbs, nuts and bolts, tire sizes,
and electrical connectors. As discussed in Chapter 14, standardizing parts has many advantages
to the production and marketing of products. ISO 9000:2000 is a management standard that
defines how a company conducts its business, which helps it work and understand its suppliers
and customers.
Third-party registration system- ISO 9000:2000 is designed around a process approach to
management and is based on eight principles that are closely aligned with Total Quality
Management (TQM): 1. Customer focus: understanding customer needs, striving to exceed customer expectations.
2. Leadership: establishing direction, unity of purpose, and a supportive work environment.
3. Involvement of people: ensuring that all employees at all levels are able to fully use their
abilities for the organization’s benefit.
4. Process approach: recognizing that all work is done through processes and managed
accordingly.
5. System approach to management: expands on the previous principle in that achieving any
objective requires a system of interrelated processes.
6. Continual improvement: as a permanent organizational objective, recognizing and acting on
the fact that in all cases further improvement is possible.
7. Factual approach to decision making: acknowledging that sound decisions must be based on
analysis of factual data and information.
8. Mutually beneficial supplier relationships: synergy can be found in such relationships.
Examples of services where ISO 9000 can be applied are:
Hospitality, communications, health care, maintenance, government, trading, financial,
professional, administration, purchasing, transportation, scientific, utilities, technical, education

Q. Benchmarking: 1. Select the process to benchmark
2. Identify an organization that is “best in class” in performing the process you want to
study.
3. Study the benchmarked organization
4. Analyze the data.
Q. Six Sigma: The eight essential phases of Six Sigma projects, which may be expressed as DMAIC (design,
measure, analyze, improve, and control).
When the project has been selected:
1. Select the appropriate metrics or key performance output variables.
2. Determine how the metrics will be tracked over time.
3. Determine the current project baseline performance.
4. Determine the input variables that drive the key performance output variables.
5. Determine what changes need to be made to the input variables to positively affect the key
performance output variables.
6. Make the changes.
7. Determine if the changes positively affect the key performance output variables.
8. If the changes positively affect the key performance output variables, establish controls of
the input variables at the new levels.

Q. Quality Function Deployment: Quality function deployment or QFD is a decision-making technique used in the development of
new products or the improvement of existing products, which helps ensure that the wants,
needs, and expectations of the customer are reflected in a company’s designs. Organizations
that ignore the relationship between what is provided in their products and what a customer
wants will not remain competitive. QFD was originally developed in the 1960s by Dr.Yoji Akao
and Dr. Shigeru Mizuno and has been adopted by notable U.S. manufacturers, including: GM,
Ford, DaimlerChrysler, IBM, Raytheon, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and their suppliers. As defined
in the eleventh edition of the APICS Dictionary, it is “A methodology designed to ensure that all
the major requirements of the customer are identified and subsequently met or exceeded
through the resulting product design process.”
