Japan Adds Total to IE also

H. Yamashina of Japan developed World Class Manufacturing approach and he included Total Industrial Engineering along with Total Quality Management, Total productive Maintenance and Cost Deployment.

According to him TQM is the brain, TPM is the muscle and TIE is the humanware.

I am trying to find out the details of the concept. So far I could only access three or four slides on the concept. Covered in a post on Knol.
