  7. Lean manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_manufacturing

    Lean manufacturing is a method of manufacturing goods aimed primarily at reducing times within the production system as well as response times from suppliers and customers.It is closely related to another concept called just-in-time manufacturing (JIT manufacturing in short).

  8. Experience curve effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experience_curve_effects

    An example of experience curve effects: Swanson's law states that solar module prices have dropped about 20% for each doubling of installed capacity. [1] [2]In industry, models of the learning or experience curve effect express the relationship between experience producing a good and the efficiency of that production, specifically, efficiency gains that follow investment in the effort.

  9. Lean Six Sigma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_Six_Sigma

    It was developed as a guide for managers of manufacturing plants on how to combine lean manufacturing and Six Sigma to improve quality and cycle time in the plant. [5] In the early 2000s Six Sigma principles expanded into other sectors of the economy, such as healthcare, finance, and supply chains. [citation needed]
