Industrial Engineering - Definition

Industrial Engineering is System Efficiency Engineering.

It includes Machine Effort and Human Effort Industrial Engineering.

Industrial Engineering is concerned with efficiency design or productivity design during initial product or process design and productivity improvement on a continuous basis during the life of the product and process. Industrial engineers participate in the installation of processes and process improvement projects and take full responsibility to make their designs or design modifications actual implementations and results generators.

Engineers design and produce.

Value Engineering

Between 1980 and 1999,  the first publications related to 18 ‘concepts’ related to just-in-time, quality improvement tools from Japan (QFD, Poka Yoke, Taguchi, Kaizen, etc.), TPM, the quality management systems ISO 9000, Six Sigma, lean production and their associated techniques, including VSM, Theory of Constraints or more philosophical aspects such as the importance of respect and the participation of people in the competitiveness of companies (Kaizen, Hoshin Kanri, Skills matrix), appeared. 

If initially the role of the United States in IE through its military and automobile industry was unquestionable (methods and times, balancing of assembly lines, statistical process control, project management, MRP, etc.) between 1950 and 1980, from the 1980s onwards, this leadership has declined in favour of Japan and the subsequent ‘concepts’ generated more internationally.
