W. Edwards Deming brought to Japan. After World War II, this concept came
from Japan (Petrozzo,
DP
&
Stepper, JC 1994).
The quality

this
concept focuses on process based rather than functional structural. The Quality

Toyota.
In addition, the USA realized this but they responded a little bit late for the
Japanese attack on their markets. They are still at functional official
organization
structure.

almost

in

Soon,
the
USA realized their mistakes and learned from Japan. Then the reengineering
concept was born. Furthermore, here is the difference between reengineering
and other
methodology shown
in Table 2-3 below:

Handbook, 1st edn, Amacom, New York.
Table 2-0-4. Reengineering and its Relationships to Other Improvement Programs
However, some experts agr ee that reengineering and
continuous
improvement must get along side by side. Radical improvement not
accompanied by continuous maintenance of development will decline in next
development. On the other hand, if radical improvement strengthens with
continuo us
improvement,
it will
maintain
its
momentum
until
it
is the time
for
radical
improvement
takes
place
again.
