War on waste, A Lean-Kaizen tool for identifying, reducing and eliminating process waste
The concept of non-value adding activities originated from the practice of Mr.Taiichi Ohno of the Toyota Production System. The need of such a concept was born out of the national economic crisis Japan was reeling under then, during the decades that followed the infamous World War second. Toyota family had lots of challenges to meet before they could become profitable and beat the other car makers in Americas.
Analysis of value adding and non-value adding activities led the company to comprehend the concept of the seven wastes, and then gradually implement it across the factory. The rigorous and discipline approach towards eliminating the process wastes improved their quality drastically, simultaneously also bringing down their cost and also accelerated the production flow thus bringing in dramatic gains both in terms of top line as well as bottom line.
