Abstract

Lean management is based on two concepts: the elimination of Muda, the waste, from the production process, and Jidoka, the introduction of quality inside the production process and product. In software production, the elimination of Muda received significant attention, while Jidoka has not yet been fully exploited. In this work we want to propose a holistic approach to insert Jidoka in software production. We depict the architecture of a tool to support Jidoka and describe the components that are part of it.
