Removing the Barriers to Efficient Manufacturing: Real-World Applications of Lean Productivity

This book is a practical roadmap that shows managers how to eliminate the barriers that keep them from achieving high productivity levels while producing consistent quality products. The underlying basis is Demings methodology for reducing variability but presents it in a new way by moving from theoretical to real-life application. It also incorporates other common-sense approaches that have proven to be successful and which enhance some specific foundational principles.
