Abstract
Recently, the authors have worked out a new management principle named New JIT based on TMS, TDS, TPS and TQM-S to strengthen Toyota's global production strategy. This paper verifies the effectiveness of the proposed Advancing TPS as the key to New JIT at Toyota. Toward enabling simultaneous production start-up (the same quality and production at optimal locations), an integrated network system that utilises QCIS (Quality Control Information System), ARIM (Availability Reliability Information Administration Monitor), AWD6P/J (Aging & Work Development 6 Project) and V-IOS (Virtual - Intelligence Operator System) by using AOL (Advanced Operator Levels) rank model, the next-generation, production quality management model TPS-QAS (Toyota Production System-Quality Assurance System) is proposed. In cases of application, we take up examples for systematic development of quality assurance technologies to test the validity of TPS-QAS as a new global production quality management system at Toyota.
