CII Virtual Session on Toyota Production System: Key Concepts and Guidelines to Build Lean Value Stream I 21st & 22nd January 2026 (Wednesday & Thursday) I 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Context Setting

This workshop provides an executive-level introduction to the Toyota Production System (TPS) with a focused emphasis on the guidelines for creating a Lean value stream. Anchored in the proven practices of Toyota Motor Corporation, the program traces how TPS evolved as an integrated management system—combining philosophy, principles, and practices—to consistently deliver world-class performance.

It explains how customer demand is translated into takt time, how flow and pull are systematically designed across processes, and how visual management and standard work enable stability and predictability on the shop floor.

The workshop also emphasizes how TPS integrates structure, discipline, and problem-solving at the value-stream level, showing how leadership intent is converted into day-to-day operational control. It highlights the use of standardized processes, visual systems, and fact-based decision-making to ensure stability, expose abnormalities, and enable continuous improvement, thereby helping participants move beyond isolated tool deployment to a coherent, end-to-end TPS-driven value stream.

CII Naoroji Godrej Centre of Manufacturing Excellence (CII CME) is organizing a 2-day Virtual Session on this crucial topic of Toyota Production System: Key Concepts and Guidelines to Build Lean Value Stream on 21st & 22nd January 2026 (Wednesday & Thursday), from 02.00 p.m. to 06.00 p.m. both days.

Objective

  • Understand TPS in its purest form and learn how the seven guidelines for creating a Lean value stream are applied in practice.
  • Build clarity on takt time, flow and pull, work balancing, supermarkets, visual management, and standardization. 

Key Takeaways

  • Clear value-stream perspective and practical guidance on applying TPS-based guidelines to design, improve, and sustain Lean operations.
  • Program equips leaders to guide teams in creating flow, visibility, and stability rather than merely deploying isolated Lean tools in a single-piece flow environment.
