The document discusses the Toyota Production System (TPS), which aims to eliminate waste to improve productivity and quality. It describes the key aspects of the TPS model including just-in-time production, jidoka (building quality into processes), and leveling production. The TPS focuses on minimizing inventory, delays, overproduction, defects and unnecessary processing to maximize efficiency and flow or "continuous flow" through all steps from supplier to customer.
