OM DETTA AVSNITT
Behind the story: Just-in-time manufacturing transformed industry by reducing inventory, waste and unnecessary costs. But what happens when a missing component brings an entire production line to a halt?
From Toyota's production system to hospitals, supermarkets, electricity grids and cloud computing, SignsWatch explores the tension between efficiency and resilience.
Why can spare capacity look like waste until the moment we need it? And how can organisations distinguish intelligent efficiency from dangerous fragility?
A story about the hidden value of things we hope never to need.
