    The conventional mass-production system advocates that by producing a limited product line in massive quantities, companies can reach efficiency as well as gain economies of scale. However, this can create a large amount of extra costs such as the warehouse rents for the excess inventories. Moreover, the extreme division of labor and long production runs increase the probability of getting defects, which will eventually lower the profit of a company.…

    The Toyota Way is a collection of fourteen principles that drive the decision making process based on a philosophical sense of purpose. It is something that I was initially introduced to by my father, but have recently grown to appreciate as an adult (I drive a Toyota truck). Toyota Corporation teaches all of their employees that these principles of management are based exclusively on a long-term perspective. They also stress a systematic process for problem solving and an organic growth among company personnel. The company believes that organizational learning is based on an individual’s ability to solve problems systematically. Despite a recent public setback with product recall, Toyota Corporation has consistently stood for quality products, and quality management. In my opinion, the fourteen theories that comprise “The Toyota Way” most accurately depict the optimal principles of management.…

    Toyota Production System (TPS) is one of the most benchmarked business improvement strategies in modern industry. There are three main approaches applied as the companies try to emulate Toyota’s success which are the copy cat approach, the home-grown approach and Suppliers development as it stand out in the transformation effort. The most replicated activities that Toyota conducts on a routine basis is the suppliers development approach in the achievement of TPS. Based on the survey from Henke in 2010, shows that an annual North American original equipment manufacturer (OEM) has been ranked number one for supplier relations over the last seven years. The study shows that Toyota is superior to the major US and Japanese OEM’s in supplier communication, OEM assistance, and supplier profit and partnering. While Toyota may be ranked as one of the leading OEMs in the automotive industry for supplier working relations, it is not clear what parts of TPS plays a significant part in Toyota’s relations with the supply based. This work will be focus on the aspects of the Toyota Way that is used in supplier development for vehicle operations. The goal of this case is to quantify Toyota’s supplier development activities to better understand the aspects of understanding Toyota’s suppliers. It will be expected to provide new insight and understanding Toyota’s supplier development factors and relationships that lead to successful supplier development.…

    The Toyota Production System (TPS) operating management style has become the gold standard in the automotive industry, and even though their strategy has been attempted to be duplicated, it has yet to be replicated. The main reason behind the failures of TPS imitators is that they fall short in developing a management strategy to align the goals and objectives of all the functional groups within the enterprise. These imitators get too caught up in cost-reduction strategic decisions rather than strategies which add the most value to the customer as well as their suppliers. Toyota has tighter supplier relations then their competitors by integrating production facilities and locations with their suppliers. This gives them a competitive advantage in both quality and cost over their competition. Finally, Toyota designs their products with their customers specifically in mind to help add the most value possible to the customer. Toyota is able to concentrate on a value added strategy by using the collaborative technique discussed in class. Toyota employs cross functional collaboration between departments to identify common goals and objectives between functional groups, as well as external collaboration between their suppliers. Toyota takes advantage of their collaborative agreements with their suppliers to not only reduce costs but also to increase quality standards to enhance the value for the customer. Toyota understands that it’s most important to get a quality product from their suppliers, in a timely fashion than it is to get the cheapest product possible, while many of their competitors are focused on just the opposite. With the current economic problems and the credit crisis severely crippling demand in the auto industry, American car makers are facing a big problem in producing a quality product cheaply. Although the Big Three automakers faced similar problems in the 1980’s and survived, they have to try to survive in a much more globally competitive industry.…

    Toyota Motor Manufacturing, U.S.A. (TMM) is deviating from the standard assembly line principle of jidoka in an attempt to avoid expenses incurred from stopping the production line for seat quality defects. This deviation has contributed to the inability to identify the root cause of the problem, which has led to decreased run ratios on the line and an excess of defective automobiles in the overflow lot for multiple days. If this problem isn’t fixed quickly, an increased amount of waste will continue to be incurred and customer value will be threatened.…
