Example 1: What did the Army learn from the Circus?
- Early in the 20th century, European generals were trying to find out the best way to move soldiers, horses, and equipment from one place to another.
- They recognized that a circus faces similar transportation problems on an
ongoing basis.
- PT Barnum's circus successfully transported personnel, equipment, and animals
from one US town to another.
- These European generals studied what made Barnum's circus transportation so
smooth and efficient.
- They then adopted and applied these same Best Practices to improve their own
armies' transportation.
Example 2: Did you know, Toyota’s famous ‘JIT’ was inspired by an American supermarket?
- One of the most recognized benchmarks of inventory management in the world
is Toyota.
- Toyota's just-in-time (JIT) inventory control process is emulated the world over.
It turns out that this JIT system was originally an American idea.
- In the early 1950s, the founder of Toyota sent his son Eiji Toyoda to the US to
benchmark Best Practice manufacturing processes of General Motors, Chrysler,
Ford, etc.
- Toyoda also visited American supermarkets and was impressed with the speed
and accuracy of grocers who restocked their shelves at night so that the
supplies were replenished in time for customers to shop in the day.
- Benchmarking outside his industry, Toyota was able to transport his
observations and insights back to Japan, where they were adopted, adapted,
and even improved upon by Toyota.
