Elements of a Continuous Improvement Program

by Paul Butler, Bendar Dundat (Other)

Overview

The scientific method of testing hypotheses and improving processes evolved over many years. F. Taylor built on the method in writing the "Principles of Scientific Management." Scientific management and elemental movement analysis were the foundations of industrial engineering. Industrial engineering branched out to process, production, quality control, and other disciplines. Quality expanded to include DMAIC, ISO, Six Sigma, and TPS. This book compiles tools from quality, industrial engineering, and personal experience to create "Elements of a Continuous Improvement Program."
