Before I go off and re-invent the wheel with some training, does anybody know of any suppliers of good JIT training material, ie. Videos / CD-ROM etc? (This is the cue for Steve Gregory to start his Net surfing.....) Any info. would be much appreciated!!

Seems like I'm starting to get some sort of reputation here...(a good one I hope!)...GRIN Anyways, I did find sumpin' fer ya! How would you like a whole JIT principles course that was created and written by college students from Curtin University of Technology in Perth, Australia as a class project for free? I knew you would! It's even down around your neck of the woods! So it'll take a couple of milliseconds less to load up on yer 'pooter than it did on mine...hehehe. It's online and yours for the surfing. Go to: http://www.rolf.ece.curtin.edu.au/~clive/jit.jit.htm I ran across that link while at a very good page from a organization called the Manufacturing Management and Technology Insitute. It's a page really worth visiting. Go to: http://www.mmt-inst.com They've another page where I found the link to the Curtin University thing called their JIT/Lean Production Resource List. It's just jam-packed with all kinds of links about that stuff. Go to: http://www.mmt-inst.com/otherresouces.htm I think that'll keep ya' busy for a while!
