Toyota Motor is set to restart production in its Japanese plants on Wednesday, following a recent system malfunction that disrupted its domestic manufacturing operations. Toyota plans to resume production across 25 production lines in twelve plants. The automaker experienced a system failure that disrupted its supply chain and production ordering. Approximately one-third of Toyota’s global production capacity was impacted by the disruption. Toyota’s reliance on just-in-time inventory management is evident in this incident. The company’s domestic production had been recovering after semiconductor-related output cuts. The exact cause of the malfunction is under investigation.
