Productivity improvements using lean practices at Japanese electrical and electronics manufacturing
Nowadays, many companies around the world are struggling to deal with market and demand uncertainty. Unstable demand, poor economic scenario and high operational cost may worsen the company performance and insisting company to slow down its new model development and funding other Research and Develo...
