Primes

• Concurrent, Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • The shared commitment to project success metrics rather than functional metrics (e.g., "reduce time-to-market" rather than "maximize utilization of engineering resources")

    This sourceRawson Associates. The MIT International Motor Vehicle Program study of lean production, documenting that lean automakers integrate functions and orient toward whole-vehicle program performance (time-to-market, total system efficiency) rather than local functional optimization.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
