9. THE TEREX BUSINESS SYSTEM
This is a journey, and although we are still early in this
journey, I am pleased to see the enthusiasm with which the
Terex organization worldwide has rallied around this critical
and transformational strategic initiative.
TBS is based on lean principles and lean thinking as applied
to every aspect of our business. The core applications of
lean thinking involve the promotion of a culture of continuous
improvement and the removal of waste (anything that does
not add value) at every organizational level of the Company.
Terex intends to communicate these principles to all of our
personnel throughout the Company. This is a long-term project
In 2005, we introduced the Terex Business System or “TBS.”
