What is Toyota doing now?
Taiichi Ohno’s answer was very simple:
“All we are doing is looking at the time line from the moment the
customer gives us an order to the point when we collect the cash. And
we are reducing that time line by removing the non-value-added
wastes.”
Simple but brilliant.
(Taiichi Ohno. Toyota Production System: Beyond Large-Scale Production. p. ix.)

Takt Time
“The rhythm of the
conductor to keep the
Customer demand
orchestra in time”
– Takt time yields the rate at which customers demand product
metronome
– and the production rate to stay synchronized with demand

Takt time =

Example:
Total time available
– Demand = 150,000 cars per year
– Total available production time = 2 x 8 hrs/day x 250 days/yr = 4,000 hrs/year
– Takt = 4,000 hrs/150,000 cars = 1hr/37.5 cars = 96 sec / car

Linking operational measures:
Little’s Law
Inventory I
...
Flow rate/Throughput R
[units]
... ...
[units/hr]
... ...
Flow Time T [hrs]
 Inventory
I
= Throughput x Flow Time
= RxT
 Inventory Turnover = Throughput / Inventory
= 1/ T
