摘要
This article presents a case study of a kaizen in a UK diesel engine manufacturer. Kaizen is explained as an emergent strategy; its effectiveness in reducing costs is explained by its effects on the effort bargain and by the organisation of the work standardisation task. Kaizen-related changes, perceptions of the employees, and its effects of the competitive position of the firm are reviewed.
