  • Nowadays, more and more companies recognize and emphasize the importance of continuous improvement. Toyota is the company that best demonstrate the concept of continuous improvement, or, “Kaizen”. Kaizen means change for better (Kai: 改 change; Zen: 善 better). While this concept was originated from a manufacturing company, Toyota, it has turned out to be very powerful in other industries as well.
    While many companies recognize the importance of continuous improvement and some of them even establish a department specially working for it, in real life, it seems very hard for companies to really implement the concept of continuous improvement in the organization. What most often seen is that while everyone in the company has been encouraged to work on continuous improvement, it is rare that the improvements truly make changes and sustain.
    This study will focus on the analysis of the factors affecting the success of continuous improvement and provide suggestions for each factor. The background environment the study focuses on is supply chain in a global IT manufacturing company. Future study could investigate whether the result could be applied to other functions or industries as well.
