  1. by using the assembly line to bring the cars to the assembly workers, instead of having the assembly workers going to each car, improving efficiency and speeding up production
  2. minimizing the number of parts in a car (e.g. elimination of the fuel pump in the Model T and using gravity fuel feed instead)
  3. insisting that his dealers must buy and maintain a certain parts stock in advance, instead of only ordering the parts needed to fix the cars they were working on at that moment (this increased parts production and got needed cash into the company fast)
  4. etc.
