In order to improve quality on the four-station assembly line within the Toyota Production Systems Lab at the Rochester Institute of Technology, two andon systems and a corresponding monitoring system are to be developed. One andon system is to be a typical system consisting of simple electronics. The other andon system is to be purely mechanical in nature. In order to highlight and record abnormalities, which can later be used to perform root cause analysis and develop preventative countermeasures, a monitoring system will be designed alongside the andon systems.

Team behavior expectations It is our expectation that team members will be respectful of each other’s ideas, keep one another informed, and balance workload amongst all people. Honoring the strength of individuals Individual responsibilities will be determined based on who volunteers and/or who is most qualified. Interactions with guide We will schedule and participate in continuous, weekly meetings with our guide. Decision making Under ideals circumstances, we will make decisions based on consensus, but may be required to revert to alternate decision making options (ie: refer to expert, majority rules, etc. ) as specific cases arise.
