NUMMI - or what General Motors learnt from Toyota and then took too long to implement

This American Life had an interesting two part audio series on the General Motors Fremont plant in California. This was General Motor's worst plant. Then as part of a joint venture with Toyota the work force was sent to Japan to learn how to make Toyota cars. The plant turned around so much that in the end the cars they were making exceeded the quality of Japanese cars.
