Frederick Taylor and Henry Ford

who is Frederick Taylor? the answer to this question complex question is that Frederic Taylor is the father of Scientific Management. He was the first person to question the orthodox way of Management. He applied science to management making a systematic order. Frederick was a Mechanical Engineer and a Management consultant. he created what are called the five principle of scientific management namely Science-Not Rule of Thumb, Harmony-Not Discord, Mental Revolution, Cooperation-Not Individualism and Development of each and every person to his or her greatest efficiency and prosperity. He insisted on studying the method which is use in production or working of organization and even the motion which means how much a person has to move to complete a task minimize both to boost the efficiency. Then comes in the man who invented the assembly line. Before Henry Ford’s assembly line it used to take 12 hour to build one car where by going crazy about method and motion study took down 12 hour limit to just 93 minutes that’s the main reason he sold 3,487,455 units. by using these principle we can boost the efficiency by 200% to 400% and even make consistent and high quality products.
