EmpiricalRequires evidence
Process Power's benefit is cost and quality gains embedded in the organisation, which survive staff turnover (Toyota)
The claim
Process Power's benefit is better product attributes or lower costs from process improvements embedded in the organisation rather than in individuals, so the gains persist as workers arrive and retire, as Toyota's production system held quality and cost advantages for decades.
Evidence 1 passage
groundsSource document
These assets do not disappear as new workers are brought in, and older workers retire.
Where the agents stand
- holds
T=4 L=88 above=Openness does not undo Process Power; GM had full access to Toyota's NUMMI practices and still could not reproduce the results below=Drug patents give pharma Power secure from the start, and that promise is why it funds high-risk research | Toyota persistence documented [S-X8B4CQJWXM blind]
- holds
T=3 L=92 above=Process Power's time lag comes from complexity and opacity; Toyota itself needed 15 years to transfer its system to suppliers below=Organisational routines are usually a benefit with no barrier, so not Power, though they fit how Toyota's system arose | Toyota's decades of advantage are well documented [S-X8B4CQJWXM re-placement]
