One-Piece Flow vs. Batching - Charles (Business Improvement Group Protzman - Bog

A silent productivity killer, batching is an extremely difficult mindset to overcome and, as a result, numerous Lean initiatives have been destroyed by it. This book argues the case for one piece flow over batching. It identifies the eight root causes of batching, the wastes created from batching, how batching drives the eight wastes, and the advantages of one piece flow. The book provides concrete arguments as to why batching is usually not the most efficient solution for most processes.
