This book introduces Lean philosophy and illustrates the effective application of Lean tools with real-world case studies. From fundamental concepts to integrated planning and control in pull production and the supply chain, the text provides a complete introduction to Lean production. Coverage includes small batch production, setup reduction, pull production, preventive maintenance, standard work, as well as synchronizing and scheduling Lean operations. Detailing the key principles and practices of Lean production, the text also illustrates effective implementation techniques with case studies from a range of industries. Includes questions and completed problems in each chapter. Explains how to effectively partner with suppliers and employees to achieve productivity goals.Designed for students who have a basic foundation in production and operations management, the text provides a thorough understanding of the principles of Lean. It also offers practical know-how for implementing a culture of continuous improvement on the shop floor and in the office, creating a heightened sense of responsibility in all stakeholders, and enhancing productivity and efficiency to improve the bottom line. In this third edition, the author addresses management's role in Lean production. Early observers of Japanese methods focused on the shop floor to see amazing things unlike anything practiced elsewhere. The thinking was that if the "methods" could be adopted by companies elsewhere, those companies would experience the success of the Japanese. What the early observers hadn't considered were dramatic differences in the way those companies were managed, both daily and strategically.The "management side" of Lean production is addressed in two new chapters, one devoted to daily management and the other to strategy deployment. Additionally, there is a new chapter that addresses breakthrough improvement and an approach to achieving it called the Production Preparation Process. Every chapter has been revised and expanded to better tell the story of Lean production-its history, applications, practices, and methods.

Lean Production for Competitive Advantage

Accelerated life tests (ALTs) have become an indispensable tool for reliability engineers to quantify a product's reliability, and for product managers to make product release decisions. However, there are many common misuses of ALTs and misinterpretations of their results. This book provides a framework for the proper design and analysis of ALTs. It compares ALTs with other industrial testing experiments, and provides guidance on their appropriate application. It features lots of examples using real data from industrial experiments, and provides statistical software for their implementation. It can be used as a textbook for students of reliability, or as a reference for practitioners

Polycentricity: Studies in Institutional Diversity and Voluntary Governance

Co-production, Institutions, and Governance explores the theory, practice, and transformative potential of co-production across institutional, organizational, and professional contexts. Co-production, broadly understood as the collaborative process whereby citizens, communities, and, in some cases, a variety of public actors jointly design, deliver, and modify goods and services, challenges traditional top-down approaches in both public and private domains. Drawing on diverse social science disciplines, the contributors examine how co-production fosters adaptive, efficient, responsive, and inclusive governance structures. The collection emphasizes both theoretical and applied perspectives, highlighting the ways co-production can enhance private and public value, social learning, and participatory decision-making. Technological, organizational, and institutional shifts over the past decades have increasingly blurred the distinction between producers and users, creating fertile ground for co-production. The case studies and empirical research included in the volume testify the versatility of co-production, from local governance initiatives to large-scale policy interventions, demonstrating its potential to address a variety of complex socio-economic challenges. Additionally, the volume critically examines power dynamics, institutional barriers, and opportunities that lead to co-production, offering practical guidance for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. By integrating interdisciplinary insights with tangible, applied-level experiences, this volume provides a comprehensive account of co-production as both a conceptual framework and a practical tool for fostering collaborative, inclusive, and sustainable governance. It serves as a reference point for all those seeking to understand, implement, and evaluate co-production in diverse socio-economic settings.

The purpose of this book is to explain the concept of portfolio, program, and project investment management and to provide the knowledge and the necessary understanding to effectively undertake the process. It begins by explaining how to understand the business problem the organization is trying to resolve with its strategy objectives. It then looks at financial management, particularly how to calculate the whole-of-life program and project capital and operational costs used to measure value for money from the investment. This information is used to inform program and project business case options analysis, investment appraisal of the initiative, and portfolio prioritization through the entire corporate portfolio management process. This book details the investment management process and how it integrates with an adapted corporate portfolio management process and benefits management process that focuses on a clear line of sight - an industry technique that ensures the achievement of strategy objectives through benefits realization. In addition, it explores specific cognitive bias that impacts and unduly influences the investment decision-making process. Finally, it describes several leading-edge techniques to make it easier to implement and sustain the discipline of portfolio, program, and project investment management.

This book draws on research and experience in occupational health and safety to address a fundamental question: what separates a near miss incident from an accident that results in injury? Through analysis of workplace events, the author proposes that fortuity and luck are the key factors determining accident outcomes. Building on the CECAL (Cause, Effect, and Control of Accidental Loss) model introduced in 2000, the book explores the three 'Luck Factors' that intervene in undesired events, offering a fresh perspective on accident outcomes.This title provides the insights and tools needed to transform your perspective on workplace safety. With real-life examples, including the NASA Columbia disaster and United Airlines Flight 232, it challenges traditional safety metrics and introduces innovative concepts such as the Safety Fear Factor. It explains why measuring safety performance through injury rates is flawed, as these metrics often reflect luck rather than control. Readers will gain practical guidance on implementing proactive Safety Management Systems (SMS) to recognize, assess, and rectify near miss incidents, empowering them to prevent accidents effectively rather than relying on chance.The Safety Luck Factors: The Fortuity Elements that Influence Accident Outcomes is essential for safety professionals, workplace managers, and anyone involved in occupational health and safety.
