| dc.description.abstract | This case describes the implementation of Just-in-Time at Eicher Tractors in the mid 1980s. It also highlights the extensive preparatory work Eicher had to do before it could start implementing Just-in-Time. The case also brings out the role JIT plays in the philosophy of the company and the changes that were made on a variety of fronts including human resource development and empowerment, design of JIT manufacturing and inventory systems, methods of ensuring quality and continuous improvements. The main learning value is an exposure to a successful implementation of JIT. | en |
