Abstract: | In 1985, Monsanto's Pensacola facility embarked on a major productivity improvement program. As a result of its efforts in computer integrated manufacturing, total quality management, and self directed workteams, it realized a 50 percent increase in productivity. Because Monsanto was so successful in indentifying the benefits from automation, the Institute of Management Accountants decided to publish a case study describing the process. This article contains a summary of this report. |
