| Abstract: | More and more British companies introduce Japanese manufacturing methods. The Japanese-style practices include total quality control, just-in-time (JIT) production, team-based organization of production and flexible labour deployment. The use of these methods is examined at two groups of manufacturing companies: Japanese-owned companies operating in Britain, and Western manufacturing companies listed in The Times 1.000 index. |
