An interesting read for a discussion of system design principles in manufacturing system design with special reference to Toyota Production System design is:

According to Spear and Bowen the design of Toyota Production System can be captured by the Four Rules:
Rule 1: All work shall be highly specified as to content, sequence, timing, and outcome.
Rule 2: Every customer-supplier connection must be direct, and there must be an unambiguous yes-or-no way to send requests and receive responses.
Rule 3: The pathway for every product and service must be simple and direct.
Rule 4: Any improvement must be made in accordance with the scientific method, under the guidance of a teacher, at the lowest possible level in the organization.

Axiomatic design—a methodology that has been developed by Suh to provide a structured approach for the generation and selection of good design solutions.
