The Toyota Production System, developed by Japan’s top manufacturer Toyota, is a general term for production methods such as the Kanban method, Just-In-Time, Jidoka, and Mieruka. This book provides a richly illustrated explanation of these production methods, tracing them back to Kiichiro Toyoda, the founder of Toyota Motor Corporation, and his ideological background. I hope you will use this book to understand the methods used by Toyota and apply them to your own company.
