Henry ford’s idea was to have one person be an expert at one production step. Therefore, as the cars were being assembled, one person would do his one job over and over every day. It was perhaps boring for the worker, but it was a much more efficient means of production. It also meant all parts of the car should be uniformly made, because no time could be spent making minor changes to a part so that it would fit on a car. Thus Henry Ford became the father of assembly-line production.:)>-
