Passion for Manufacturing" reveals the proven principles essential for developing an integrated systems approach for winning in the tough, globally competitive business of manufacturing. The book is based on the remarkable turnaround experience and accomplishments of Richard E. (Dick) Dauch. Dauch is the no-nonsense, visionary, get-it-done executive who led Chrysler’s manufacturing revolution in the 80s, then later co-founded American Axle & Manufacturing (AAM) and transformed troubled, unionized, inner-city manufacturing facilities into one of North America's top 12 automotive suppliers. In this book, Dauch shares his proven personal techniques for building teams, working effectively with unions and suppliers, implementing flexible automation/production systems, introducing Just-In-Time materials management and improving product quality. The book also gives rare insight into plant revitalizations and reorganizations, explaining the whys and hows of workplace training and skill-set development.
Reprinted with a brand new forward, "Passion for Manufacturing" is valuable reading for every manufacturing, technology and business professional.
