  1. TOYOTA’S KNOWLEDGE TOYOTA’S KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS By Mohammed Asrar

  2. Knowledge Management at Toyota Knowledge Management at Toyota According to analysts, Toyota's success in both the local and global markets was based on its gaining a competitive advantage through implementation of innovative and path-breaking ideas on its production floors.  Toyota Production System (TPS) worked on the basic idea of maintaining a continuous flow of products in factories in order to adapt flexibly to changes in demand. TPS linked all production activities to real dealer demand through implementation of Kanban, JIT (Just- In-Time) and other quality measures...

  3. TOYOTA WANTS TO TRANSFER KNOWLEDGE OF ITS PRODUCTION SYSTEM TO NEW EMPLOYEES Toyota typically selects a core group of two to three hundred new employees and sends them for several months training and work on the assembly line in one of Toyota’s existing factories. After several months of studying the production system and working alongside experienced Toyota assembly line workers, the new workers are sent back to the new factory site.

  4. TOYOTA WANTS TO TRANSFER KNOWLEDGE OF ITS PRODUCTION SYSTEM TO NEW EMPLOYEES These repatriated workers are accompanied by one or two hundred long-term, highly experienced Toyota workers, who will then work alongside all the new employees in the new factory to assure that knowledge of Toyota’s finely tuned production process is fully implanted in the new factory.

  5. TACIT KNOWLEDGE APPROACH- TACIT KNOWLEDGE APPROACH- QUALITY CIRCLES QUALITY CIRCLES At the end of each work week, groups of Toyota production workers spend one to two hours analyzing the performance and problems in quality or productivity. Each group proposes “countermeasures” to correct identified problems, and discusses the results. Through personal interactions in such Quality Circle group settings, Toyota employees share their ideas for improvement, devise steps to test new ideas for improvement, and assess the results of their tests.

  6. EXPLICIT KNOWLEDGE EXPLICIT KNOWLEDGE APPROACH APPROACH Documenting the tasks that each team of workers and each individual worker is asked to perform on its assembly lines. These documents provide a detailed description of how each task is to be performed, how long each task should take, the sequence of steps to be followed in performing each task, and the steps to be taken by each worker in checking his or her own work.

  7. TOYOTA PRODUCTION SYSTEM TOYOTA PRODUCTION SYSTEM (TPS) (TPS) The TPS organizes manufacturing and logistics for the automobile manufacturer, including interaction with suppliers and customers.. The Toyota Production System (TPS) was established based on two concepts: 1.The first is called "jidoka" (which can be loosely translated as "automation with a human touch") which means that when a problem occurs, the equipment stops immediately, preventing defective products from being produced. 2.The second is the concept of "Just-in-Time," in which each process produces only what is needed by the next process in a continuous flow.

  8. (Innovative Multi-purpose (Innovative Multi-purpose Vehicle) project Vehicle) project In the summer of 2004 Toyota crossed the threshold to a new age of global production with the launch in Thailand of the Hilux Vigo pickup truck, available in standard cab, extra cab and double cab models. Toyota initiated the IMV project to create an optimized global manufacturing and supply system for pickup trucks and multipurpose vehicles to satisfy market demand in more than 140 countries worldwide Toyota IMV Launch Video.mp4
