including interaction with suppliers and customers. The system is a major precursor of the more generic "Lean manufacturing." Taiichi Ohno‚ Shigeo Shingo and Eiji Toyoda developed the system between 1948 and 1975. Originally called "Just In Time Production‚" it builds on the approach created by the founder of Toyota‚ Sakichi Toyoda‚ his son Kiichiro Toyoda‚ and the engineer Taiichi Ohno. The founders of Toyota drew heavily on the work of W. Edwards Deming and the writings of Henry Ford. When these men came

of production. Many of the production successes between 1950 and 1980 have been accredited to the Toyota Production System and its chief engineer during that time‚ Taiichi Ohno. He started experimenting to improve production in the late 1940s‚ but it took many years to develop the systems described below‚ such as kaizen and kanban‚ and to have them widely adopted across the company. Even in the 1990s‚ experimentation and change were still taking place to improve production.
