Job Methods - JM

Improving the way jobs are done for continual improvement

The aim of the program is to produce greater quantities of quality products in less time by making the best use of the people, machines, and materials currently available. 

Participants are taught how to break down jobs into their constituent operations.  Every detail is questioned in a systematic manner to generate ideas for improvement.  New methods are developed by eliminating, combining, rearranging, and simplifying steps in the process.

Job Methods yields significant benefits including reduced cost through productivity gains, increased throughput, and reduced work in process.
