Toyota Internal Benchmarking
& Best Practice = Safety
1. As a group (All NAM) we compare each Example
NAMC to each other as well as TMC
• Safety Concern at NAMC triggered
2. Identify Leader activity to bench mark each NAMC to
find best practice
3. Investigate the lead plant activity
and roll out as Best Practice to all • Each plant investigated their own
other NAMC current activity
• At the all NAM meeting each
NAMC presented their activity
• Best Practices from each NAMC
were combined to make a North
American wide standard that would
be used at all NAMC’s
New Standard
Utilize each New
NAMC resources / Standard
with all
skill for the NAMC
benefit of all buy-in!
Jishuken Activity / Yokoten
1. Each NAMC sends 2. Team focus on 3. Team uses Toyota problem solving 4. Roll out
member(s) to participate issue at the NAMC methods (TBP) develop countermeasure or to all NAMC
in the Jishuken Activity as a Group suggestions to NAMC. NAMC implements (Yokoten)
at alternating NAMC’s changes and documents results

Future Technology & Trends
Die Related Equipment Related
Multiple Part Production (1 Stroke) Increased Focus on Machine Accuracy (key point
• Double Dies of Die Repeatability)
• Baby Part
Adopt Servo Press technologies with High Speed
Die Design Standards: Interchangeability from Automation for increased productivity
Line to Line / Plant to Plant
Increase common equipment and part usage for
Process Reductions (4 Dies to 3 Dies to 2 Dies) spare parts reduction and sharing
amongst NAMC
Increased focus on Die Repeatability Reduction in plant size with streamlined layout
and less inventory
Increased use of digital development tools (FEA,
FEM) and measurement for more Increased focus on reducing Die Change Time
accurate initial die build (less and methods to aid as a method to
modifications after first hit) achieve reduced lot sizes
Material Changes
• Coatings
• High Strength Materials
Balance Technology & Investment Take advantage of
New Technology to
improve productivity,
reduce lead times

Supplier Competition
How can you increase your abilities
and, at the same time,
share your capability with others
in the same industry?
Example: Toyota Based Stamping Forum
Supplier Forum: “Co-opetition”
Competitors Cooperation = Co-opetition
+ (Technical Forum)
Toyota Competition to
strengthen
each other...
But not to
reveal trade
or product
secrets
Supplier Forum Example: GSPH/SPM
What Does Competition Do? Changes your
Environment & Challenges
