4 NUMMI helped change the automobile industry by introducing the Toyota Production System and a teamwork oriented environment to the United States. NUMMI grew to become a company of 5,000 team members who produced five award- winning vehicles: Toyota Hilux, Geo Prizm, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Tacoma, and Pontiac Vibe. Throughout its history, NUMMI worked hard to create a unique corporate culture that incorporated values from Toyota and General Motors

5 HISTORY The factory which NUMMI took over was built by General Motors and operated by them from 1962 to 1982.The idea of reopening the plant emerged from the need that GM had to build high-quality and profitable small cars and the need Toyota had to start building cars in the United States, a requirement due to the possibility of import restrictions by the U.S. Congress. The choice of the Fremont plant and its workers was unusual. At the time of its closure, the Fremont employees were "considered the worst workforce in the automobile industry in the United States", according to the United Auto Workers

6 By December 1984, the first car, a yellow Chevrolet Nova rolled off the assembly line. And almost right away, the NUMMI factory was producing cars with as few defects per 100 vehicles as those produced in Japan. But 15 years later, GM had still not been able to implement lean manufacturing in the rest of the United States. By December 1984, the first car, a yellow Chevrolet Nova rolled off the assembly line.

After extensive analysis, GM and Toyota could not reach an agreement on a future product plan that made sense for all parties, GM North America President Troy Clarke said in a statement. "Toyotas hope was to continue the venture and we havent yet decided any plans at the factory, said Hideaki Homma, Toyotas Tokyo-based spokesman. While we respect this decision by GM, the economic and business environment surrounding Toyota is also extremely severe, and so this decision by GM makes the situation even more difficult for Toyota.

Before GM decided to sever its stake in the NUMMI joint venture In November 2009, Toyota's head of U.S. sales took calls from autoworkers, saying that though it has been a difficult decision to shut down the plant, "the economics of having a plant in California so far away from the supplier lines" in the Midwest "just doesn't make business sense" for Toyota to continue running the NUMMI plant.
