Tomaszawski I found his work to be uniquely his own in the way that each design is composed. I also felt he’s done a fine job in expressing his culture throughout his work.

In both artists work you see their individual cultures expressed. In Tomaszawski work there’s a constant

Just in Time Inventory System Just in Time (JIT) manufacturing is a production and inventory control system in which materials are purchased and units are produced only as needed to meet actual customer demand (Steyn‚ 2010). The basic principle of JIT is that every component needed in the manufacturing system arrives just in time for it to be used. Stock holding facilities are not required with this system because the needed products arrive when needed. Automobile industries‚ like Toyota Motor

prevent the error to become a defect. Shingo and Deming found in this long process a chance to correct the errors made at the production or managerial level. They made up a system called “Poka-Yoke”‚ a Japanese name for mistake-proofing. Shigeo Shingo‚ a Toyota industrial engineer‚ is indeed the founding father of the Poka-Yoke. A device expected to prevent defects‚ Poka-Yoke is extended to inspect the quality of products. Hence‚ the use of this technique cost Toyota no more than 150$ for

manufacturing process that helps an equipment operator avoid (yokeru) mistakes (poka). Its purpose is to eliminate product defects by preventing‚ correcting‚ or drawing attention to human errors as they occur.[1] The concept was formalised‚ and the term adopted‚ by Shigeo Shingo as part of the Toyota Production System.[2][3] It was originally described as baka-yoke‚ but as this means "fool-proofing" (or "idiot-proofing") the name was changed to the milder poka-yoke. More broadly‚ the term can refer to any behavior-shaping

will critically evaluate whether the ‘just in time’ approach to production is still a good strategy and whether it has any implications. The manufacturing approach ‘just in time’ was first established in japan during the mid-1970 by Taichi Ohno and Shigeo Shingo at the Toyota Motor Company. Toyota was one of the first companies to input this approach to streamline its manufacturing and production to minimise the retention of raw materials which enable the company to be more liquid (Rajab Abdullah Hokoma
