Book excerpt: Written specifically for the pharmaceutical industry, Continuous Improvement in the Healthcare Manufacturing Industry provides proven methods for cutting costs and improving overall performance according to industry standards. Rather than viewing continuous improvement as a management-led initiative, the author takes a bottom-up approach that involves getting the workforce behind the initiative and then bringing management on board, creating a culture that gives organizations a better and more lasting commitment. She addresses problems that can arise from regulatory pressures, short patent life, competition, right-sizing, and outmoded processes. Features
