Abstract
Continuous improvement is a vital component of an effective performance management system. Simply measuring performance will not result in system improvements. Getting improvement in any service requires an educational strategy for linking performance measurement to the implementation of the specific system improvements. The aim of the paper is to identify the effectiveness and implementation of the kaizen programme in an electronics manufacturing company. Customers focus on product quality, delivery time and cost. Because of this a company should introduce a quality system to improve and increase both quality and productivity continuously. Kaizen is a methodology that aims to increase the availability of the existing equipment hence reducing the need for further capital investment. This paper identifies role of maintenance in reducing production cost and increasing plant profit with the implementation of kaizen. Use of the Timed-PDCA concept makes it possible to pursue productivity improvement in the current works including nurturing motivations to workers concurrently by arranging kaizen theme.
