Abstract

The journey of manufacturing from the job shop to mass production has evolved several tools and techniques. However, today before the world of work, globalization and ICT have posed severe challenges like how to meet unpredictable and continually changing market demands for product and services. Tools like TQM, JIT, Lean manufacturing, FMS, CIM, six-sigma, PLM are found to be un-able to cope up with the agile market environment. agile manufacturing can be the answer. In this paper a review of agile manufacturing literature is presented. agile is a concept like gravity, mind, infinity or electrical current that cannot be seen but can be sensed and realized. Scope for future research work is also presented. Systems thinking, thoughts, actions and deeds of people and good blending of hard and soft skills can lead an organization to agile environment rather than fully depending on inanimate ICT data. It is believed that this paper will prove to be of interest to all agile people.
