Kaizen procedures evolved in the automobile industry. Therefore, most of Kaizen literature, publications, books, cite Kaizen implementation in factories such as Toyota, Ford, Mazda and the like. But work practices within pharmaceutical (medical device and biotech) industry are different from the auto sector.
Regulations, environmental needs, employee skills within pharmaceutical (medical devices and biotech) companies are extremely stringent and totally different from the automobile industry. Therefore, 'as is' Kaizen practices from auto sector won't work for pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotech organizations. Kaizen must be customized for these industries, to achieve its full benefits.
So far, there has been no book on Kaizen that is customized to pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotech industries. Having successfully driven more than 250 Kaizen, Lean Six Sigma, and other continuous improvement projects within pharmaceuticals, NHP, medical devices, biotech sectors, worldwide for over a decade, I have created real success stories; I felt it will be beneficial to share those techniques and experiences.

Kaizen has mainly been used in Japan and many other SE Asian companies and in Europe. Up until now, it has not gained enough significance in North America, because of which it has not been utilized to its full potential. The root cause is the in work culture and corporate governance styles of companies in eastern and western countries; this book totally eliminates this gap.
This book presents Kaizen methodology for direct implementation within a pharmaceutical, medical device, biotech company in east or west. Moreover, this book helps you to customize Kaizen to your company; this book is not a 'vanilla generic'.
