Small Team Problem Solving Projects For Manufacturing

Some manufacturing problems are relatively small or simple and are dealt with as part of the normal routine. When larger problems are significant enough to discuss in a meeting they often need a concerted effort to resolve. One method of dealing with these problems is to manage them like a project. This book describes how small teams can resolve large problems using the project approach, often with huge impact and with little use of resources. The key to this approach is a structured and managed methodology with consecutive steps such as used in Kaizen projects. This is a book on using the project management approach to solving larger problems in manufacturing. The methods used are explained in detail including a worked example. This is a precise guide with no anecdotes or extraneous material.
