If you are challenged
with designing and
implementing a Kanban system or rectifying
issues with your current Kanban
system this book
is for you. It fills a
serious void in today’s
publications of how to
design and implement a Kanban
system.
The
distinction in design
from one Kanban system
to another cannot be
overstated and is
literally dependent upon
the unique
characteristics of each
manufacturing or
distribution entity.
Just as there are no two manufacturing sites or
distribution entities
the same so it is with
the Kanban system. This
book covers thirty
design elements that
make up the Kanban
system and reflects the
choices of Kanban
techniques that are
selected based upon the
specific environmental
factors of the business.
The net result is a Kanban system design
that is tailored to meet
the needs of the
specific environment it
is intended to serve.
Equally as important, it
covers the required
steps of how to
successfully implement
the Kanban system and
can also be used to as a
guide in rectifying
issues with the current
Kanban system. Raymond
Louis, author of Kanban
for American Industry
and How to Integrate
Kanban with MRPII,
publisher Productivity
Press, is the author of
this book. He is the
unquestioned industry
leader in the design and
implementation of highly
advanced replenishment
systems. |
