Auto manufacturing practices

Other auto-pipettes need periodic calibration for Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) operation. 

Regularly at safety conferences and in the work of committees drafting safety standards, controversy develops over the level of risk that is acceptable. This chapter presents a thought-provoking review of the levels of risk acceptable in various enterprises (space travel, auto racing, various manufacturing and business entities) and for product safety. It also provides a practical, useable framework for safety practitioners to use in determining acceptable risk levels. 

Toyota Production System (TPS) A manufacturing process model developed by Toyota that contributed to reputation for quality in the auto industry. The Toyota Production System was built on three key factors that differentiated it from practices being employed by their competitors in the auto industry (1) reduced lot sizes, leading to production flexibility (2) controlling parts required in production to enable them to be provided when and where they are needed for specific tasks (3) arranging production equipment in the order that people work and value is added instead of grouping by equipment function. All these elements involved suppliers and customers to some extent.
