Reinventing the Factory II: Managing the World Class Factory - Tapa dura

Paul R. Zirkel General Manager, U.S. Manufacturing EG&G Instruments Harmon extends opportunities to critical areas of design, support practices and suppliers providing further grist for those engaged in the continuous improvement process. Why anyone organized to provide products or services would not want to do this defies logic.

In this successor to "Reinventing the Factory", Roy Harmon expands on the revolutionary concept of "factories-within-a-factory" with examples and practical, proven techniques drawn from more than 2000 focused factories on six continents. Challenging such current fads as statistical quality control and outdated versions of computer integrated manufacturing as hopelessly complex, Harmon presents new ideas and case examples of methods to guarantee the success of improved operations and continuous future development.
