Lessons from Toyota

Toyota has been through the "wringer" recently

with major events impacting their lean supply chain

operations. The top executives who have lived

through these issues have offered our Southern

California Roundtable an opportunity to hear

them discuss the following questions they had to face.

What do you do when your supply chain slams shut?

How does being "lean" add to the problems of

serving your customers?

How does a "Lean System Thinking" culture help the speed

of the recovery?

How do suppliers, factories, logistics, sales, distributors and

dealers contribute to minimize the customer impact and

speed recovery?

What roles do sales, service, parts procurement and

logistics, vehicle logistics, manufacturing and other

functions play?

How does "Lean System Thinking" relate to supply chain

complexity, flexibility, and responsiveness? How do data

systems and communications come into play?

Brief presentations followed by lots of

opportunities for you to get your questions

answered! Then join with the Toyota team

and your industry peers for a great networking

session complete with refreshments.
