The Old "New Manufacturing Challenge"

March 14, 2007 Modified date: March 14, 2007

I am just re-reading a book that I read at the beginning of my lean journey in 1992. It is The New Manufacturing Challenge: Techniques for Continuous Improvement by Kiyoshi Suzaki. It is still an excellent easy to understand book about implementing lean practices. If you are serious about some specific concepts, this is a wonderful book for a reading group at your company that is adopting lean. It was published in 1987.

Don't jump over this important gem of a book!

Karen Wilhelm also blogged about the book on her blog.
