This book investigates the strategic imperative of reducing manufacturing cycle times to gain competitive advantage in global markets. The authors, Joseph A. Bockerstette and Richard L. Shell, leverage their expertise in industrial engineering and operations management to argue that time, rather than just cost or quality, is the primary driver of efficiency. They present a framework for identifying and eliminating non-value-added time throughout the production process.
