This first-time-in-translation book will give modern readers total access to the fundamentals of improving any process.

Praise for the Book

The greatest value of this book is an opportunity to learn how a master sensei thinks about operations improvement. We see how Dr. Shingo thought both about macro-improvement of value streams and micro-process improvement.
Jeffrey Liker New York Times best-selling author,The Toyota Way


This books gives the reader the most wide-ranging overview of Shingo’s contributions to modern industrial engineering and Lean, many not found in any of Shingo’s previously published works. To those new to Shingo and his works, this book offers an excellent introduction. To old friends of his concepts,…this book unveils approaches to facility improvements like transportation, delay, capacity and flow analysis, not previously available in any English translation of Shingo’s before.

Dr. Shingo is brilliant… I can not believe it was not translated 25 years ago. Read this book, study his analysis of Capacity Planning, Flow Analytics, the Coefficient of difficulty to layout design – 10 absolutely brilliant steps to determining the best layout.
