Toyota Motor Corporation
- Job Type
- Production management system reconstruction, MES application, and AI data utilization development.
[Features] We are seeking practical team members who can drive the reconstruction of our production management system, which supports production planning, progress, inventory, logistics, and performance management. This will include the application of MES (Manufacturing Execution System) incorporating TPS (Toyota Production System), RFID improvement tools, and AI data utilization.
[Job Description]
[Overview] This role involves reconstructing Toyota's production management system, which supports its manufacturing processes, into a robust operational foundation capable of withstanding future production fluctuations, product diversification, and on-site improvements. This will involve identifying challenges in existing systems and business processes such as production planning, progress management, inventory management, logistics, performance data collection, and traceability, and then developing and applying a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) incorporating the principles of the Toyota Production System (TPS).
By understanding the flow of processes, tasks, materials, and information on-site, developing visualization and improvement tools for the production site using RFID, and further utilizing collected data with AI, we will build a system that contributes to productivity, quality, lead time, and inventory optimization.
[Details]
• Identifying issues related to current operations, existing systems, data integration, and operational rules for the reconstruction of the production management system
• Defining business requirements in the areas of production planning, progress management, inventory management, logistics management, performance data collection, and traceability
• Standardizing and unifying business processes that differ depending on the product being manufactured (molds, equipment, etc.), and designing the ideal business flow
• Defining requirements, application development, and implementation promotion of a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) that reflects the concept of TPS
• Strengthening traceability of parts, work-in-progress, jigs and fixtures, and logistics flow lines using RFID, and developing on-site improvement tools
• Organizing, visualizing, and utilizing data collected from the production management system, MES, and RFID tools for AI analysis
• Using AI for anomaly prediction, work improvement, and waste reduction Identifying data utilization themes for discovering potential issues, improving planning accuracy, and optimizing inventory.
- Requirements adjustment, implementation, and operational stabilization in collaboration with production sites, manufacturing technology, information systems departments, and development vendors.
