Excerpt from Small-Lot Production: Key to High Productivity and Quality in Japanese Auto Manufacturing
Managers around the world, frustrated at the levels of productivity, cost, and quality achieved by Japanese automakers, have often complained that what Japanese companies do is unique. Visitors to Japan often leave convinced that without high-quality Japanese workers and their special culture, including their willingness to cooperate with management, the performance of Japan in, say, auto manufacturing cannot be duplicated. But we now know this is not necessarily the case. Japanese-run automobile plants located in Tennessee (nissan), Ohio (honda), and California (toyota-cm) have demonstrated levels of productivity and quality comparable to what Japanese workers and managers have achieved in Japan.[1] A major reason is that the key to the performance of Japanese firms in auto manufacturing lies as much if not more in their approach to production management as any peculiar characteristics of Japanese workers in.
