| Summary: | 碩士 === 東海大學 === 工業工程與經營資訊學系 === 102 === To be able to survive in a global competitive environment and meet customer’s expectation in the progress of information technology, the company use Low-Volume-High-Mix (LVHM) model rather than High-Volume-Low-Mix (HVLM) model.
In recent years, there are various manufacturing methods and systems in the industries throughout the world. Of these, many practice lean manufacturing methods. The most effective and influential to all of these methods is the “Toyota Production System” (TPS). Although One-Piece flow is the most concrete outcome in Lean Revolution, it is not easy to achieve the goal.
Therefore, this study will use the theoretical and practical perspectives to clarify the technical and organizational characteristics of One-Piece flow production. In this study, we want to propose the theory that development of One-Piece flow, it is based on “Socio-Technical” systems in a continuously changing manufacturing environment. The theory that development of One-Piece flow includes a premise and four phases: "Phase 0 - willing", "Phase 1 - setting standards," "Stage 2 - levelized production", "Stage 3 - to solve the problem "and" stage 4 - to maintain and sophisticated ".
Through theoretical analysis backed by my personal observations, it firmly believe that One-Piece flow is the result of is a result of the interaction of social systems and technical systems. Social systems is indispensable in One-Piece flow.
