Book excerpt: In this book, John Allwood establishes the prominence of Standard Work, linking it historically from Taiichi Ohno's own hand to its initial introduction to Western manufacturing and into the waiting hands of Bob Pentland. Bob Pentland later became John Allwood's teacher at Tuthill Pump in Alsip Illinois. Pentland's comments and anecdotes are included throughout the text.John introduces the tools and skills required to perform Time Observations and write Standard Work for the shop floor and then he connects those tools to A PHYSICAL Continuous Improvement Cycle and explains how the CI cycle can be used as a visual control to manage processes. John then explains how these tools and skills line up into a functional "playbook" with which to approach any new and unknown LEAN situations.
