All About Pull Production is a practical guide for anyone looking to implement pull systems. It focuses on practical application and values functionality over theory, albeit it explains the underlying relations. It is not a high-level philosophical discussion of lean, but a book to help you roll up your sleeves and get the job done. It is written for the practitioner. If you are working in production or logistics and want to implement pull, then this book is for you. It also serves as a useful reference for students and researchers of lean manufacturing. With a foreword by John Shook. Praise for All About Pull Production "This book provides you the means to create supply systems for the rapidly evolving complexities of the twenty-first century, anywhere, in any industry."-John Shook, Chairman, Lean Global Network "Prof. Roser is the go-to source for anything about lean. With this comprehensive book on pull production he has written an authoritative work. Highly recommended for anyone interested in getting to the heart of Toyota's pull principle."-Dr. Torbjørn Netland, Professor of Production and Operations Management, ETH Zürich "This book explains pull production very well and in an excellent style. The book definitely demystifies pull. Without doubt, the book will be the go-to guide for both beginners and experienced practitioners."-Cheong Tsang, Bosch Plant Manager (Retired) "Readers will definitely obtain a lot of valuable insights and new ideas from this book on pull production."-Dr. Masaru Nakano, Professor, Keio University; Former Toyota Manager "This is by far the best in-depth exploration of pull. It is amazingly comprehensive, including warnings, common errors, and applicability of various pull systems. I am sure that it will become THE standard reference book on pull systems."-Dr. John Bicheno, Emeritus Professor of Lean Enterprise, University of Buckingham "This book presents pull production control in a comprehensive and practice-oriented way for students and practitioners alike."-Dr.-Ing. Jochen Deuse, Professor, Head of Institute of Production Systems, TU Dortmund University; Director Centre for Advanced Manufacturing, University of Technology Sydney "The book provides well structured, in-depth insights in the application of pull systems, from Kanban to less-known but powerful alternatives. The book is a valuable source for students and practitioners in industry, from lean experts to production managers."-Dr.-Ing. Ralph Richter, Former Head of the Bosch Production System and Plant Manager at Bosch "With this deeply researched and considered book, Prof. Roser goes beyond the simple explanations of pull to reveal pull production in its compelling simplicity. The results provide a convincing case and trusty guide."-Peter Willats, Professor, University of Buckingham, Co-Founder, Kaizen Institute of Europe "Anyone considering a pull system should read this book."-Mark Warren, Manufacturing Engineer and Production Historian "What you have put together in this book is amazing-this may become your magnum opus in due course! It's going to be a great reference resource for practitioners and academics."-Dr. Rajan Suri, Emeritus Professor of Industrial Engineering, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Inventor of POLCA "This book is excellent material for understanding and using pull production. It is very informative and written in a very polite and pleasant personal style with good reflections and clarifications."-Dr. Björn Johansson, Professor of Sustainable Production, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden

Written in clear, straightforward language, Just-in-Time Manufacturing: An introduction discusses in-depth the implementation of JIT manufacturing. The objectives are twofold: firstly, to acquaint the reader with the overall JIT concept and the factors necessary for its implementation, and secondly to reinforce this with an actual case study of JIT implementation in a manufacturing company.
Creating Level Pull
The Creating Level Pull workbook shows you how to advance a lean transformation from a focus on isolated improvements to improving the entire plantwide production system by implementing a lean production control system. "The workbook is unique because it is a step-by-step case study on how to implement a level, pull-based production control system," said author Art Smalley. This is a new step towards 'system kaizen that is not yet well understood outside of Toyota.The lean efforts at most companies focus on "point kaizen" (e.g., reducing set up times, implementing 5S, etc.) that improves a small portion of the value stream running from raw materials to finished products. Or they focus on "flow kaizen" that improves the entire value stream for one product family. Creating Level Pull shows how companies can make the leap to "system kaizen" by introducing a lean production control system that ties together the flows of information and materials supporting every product family in a facility. With this system in place, each production activity requests precisely the materials it needs from the previous activity and demand from the customer is levelled to smooth production activities throughout the plant.[Source : 4e de couv.].
