Abstract
Lean starts from the refusal to accept waste as defined by several authors like Helmold and Samara, Ohno, or Liker. Credited to Taiichi Ohno the lean system was developed through the 1950s and 1960s to provide the best quality, lowest cost, and shortest lead time through the elimination of waste. The Japanese term for what American companies usually categorize as waste is muda and was defined by Fujio Cho of Toyota as “Anything other than the minimum amount of equipment, space and worker’s time, which are absolutely essential to add value to the product”.
