Jidoka is the policy of halting the production, or development whenever there’s a fault or bug cropping up. The next step usually involves, fixing and finding a reason for said problem as a preventive measure. This is considered to be a highly beneficial policy, as it helps in increasing the quality of work.

Origin
The concept of Jidoka originated in the early 1900’s when Sakichi Toyoda, founder of the Toyota Group, invented a textile loom that stopped automatically when any thread broke.
