Publisher's summary
This book is about job shops. Inside is a combination of stories and practical tips from my experience. It’s not theory. This is how I lost money, made money, kept my job, or got promoted. These are all the things I dug through the literature trying to find answers to.
Job shops can be many different types of businesses. Factories, distributors, and government offices could all be considered job shops. Job shops are all those places where the work you do and the volume of work varies from day to day, even custom design businesses where every piece is unique.
There were seven challenges I struggled with that I couldn’t find adequate answers to. We talk about it here by addressing: controlling lead times, eliminating knack points, return on invested capital (ROIC), solving dynamic capacity, getting to full kit, order unevenness (Mura), and minimum viable process (MVP).
If you work in high volume mass production, this probably isn't written for you. If you've never lost a night's sleep trying to understand how your business works, don't listen to this book. If you like big words and highly technical descriptions I’m not your guy.
This book is for the searchers. Because if high-volume production is heavy metal, make-to-order is jazz.
I’m looking forward to this. Come inside.

Paul Jarvis left the corporate world when he realized that working in a high-pressure, high profile world was not his idea of success. In Company of One, Jarvis explains how you can find the right pathway to do the same, including planning how to set up your shop, determining your desired revenues, dealing with unexpected crises, keeping your key clients happy, and of course, doing all of this on your own. Company of One is a refreshingly new approach centered on staying small and avoiding growth, for any size business.
