eveloping low-cost production facilities by simplification of production equipments, and keeping high quality in production processes. New Toyota system deploys various efforts to establish the second stage of 'lean production system'. The second stage of new Toyota system revised drastically Fordist type of assembly work within serial flow assembly system. Investment cost of building assembly line is greatly reduced by introducing kit system of parts and shortening length of assembly line. The kit system is called 'Set Parts System (SPS) ' in Toyota. 'Complete process' and standard assembly sequence established at all Toyota plants in the 1990s give the base of kit system. In parallel with innovation of production, organization of work has been restructured based on the concept of 'completed production'. And moreover employment system and personnel system has been reformed towards achievement oriented system with efforts to try to keep cooperation among employees. These reforms of employment system and personnel system are still in the process of trial and error. Less
