How a Single Kanban Card Cut Inventory 40 Percent
Toyota's kanban system is legendary, but how does it actually work in a non-automotive setting? This episode drills into a specific case: a mid-sized aerospace parts manufacturer that adopted a single kanban card for a high-volume fastener and cut inventory by 40 percent, freed up $2.3 million in working capital, and reduced stockouts by 60 percent. Lucas and Luna walk through the mechanics — how the card works, the one-piece flow principle, and why most companies fail by overcomplicating it. No theory, just the decision that changed the floor.
