Abstract

Takt production has gained wide interest as a change agent for systemic change in recent years. A maturity model for the adoption of takt production based on and validated with Finnish case projects was published in 2020. However, that maturity model has not been validated internationally and companies have continued their development of takt-based operations. In this paper, we suggest updates of the maturity model by reviewing the best practices presented in three international takt forums. We also validate the model using international case projects presented in the takt forums. Industry participants have taken routes to takt production implementation other than those assumed in the initial model. Some have advanced to levels that were not included in the original model. Our suggestions consist of adding four new requirements and modifying the descriptions of eight existing requirements. A modification to the description of one of the levels in the model and the model itself are also suggested. The contribution to knowledge is a new maturity model to use for benchmarking and as a roadmap for improvement of takt production.
