Fordist production

Fordist production is a method of manufacturing developed by Henry Ford, characterized by the use of assembly lines to produce large quantities of standardized products efficiently. This approach involves breaking down the manufacturing process into simple, repetitive tasks, allowing workers to specialize and speed up production. It also emphasizes economies of scale, reducing costs and making products like cars more affordable. While highly efficient, Fordist production can lead to monotonous work and limited customization, reflecting a focus on mass production and uniformity.
