Systems Design

<p>The ground-breaking Shingo Model of 2008 introduced principles systems tools and results. At that time however the systems element of the model did not receive the in-depth attention that other parts of the model did. As a result organizations developed their own concept of systems. Some organizations have identified hundreds of systems and tools. In fact the distinction between a system and a tool was not clearly defined until recently with the introduction of the Shingo SYSTEMS DESIGN workshop and the information discussed in this book.</p><p>With the development of the workshop the Shingo Institute is now teaching the three essential systems—work improvement and management—as well as the five required communication tools that are necessary to improve an organization. You’ll find that when these systems are formalized they work together to help create organizational excellence.</p><p>With <b>Systems Design: Building Systems that Drive Ideal Behavior</b> you’ll learn how to formalize the process of creating these three systems. In addition a new tool the Shingo system design map is introduced. This book also details how you can improve the connections you’ve already made between the tools systems results and principles of the Shingo Model.</p>
