Toyotism

Toyotism, also known as the Toyota Production System, is a manufacturing philosophy developed by Toyota that emphasizes efficiency, quality, and continuous improvement. It focuses on eliminating waste, reducing inventory, and streamlining production processes through techniques like just-in-time manufacturing and jidoka (automation with a human touch). This approach encourages workers to identify problems and suggest improvements, fostering a culture of teamwork and adaptability. Overall, Toyotism aims to increase productivity while maintaining high-quality standards and minimizing costs, making production more responsive to customer needs.
