Ford Motor Company

Henry Ford Henry Ford was one of America's greatest businessperson, the founder of Ford Motor Company and the man largely responsible for mass production in the American economy. This achievement led Ford to becoming a rich and famous man. Ever since Ford was a child, he had a dream to become an engineer and to manufacture cars. He began to pursue his dream when he Introduced the Assembly line, by breaking down production into simple tasks. He lowered the skill level needed to work in a factory, which allowed enormous amounts of products to be produced at lower prices.During the sass's, Henry Ford's management skills and leadership of The Ford Motor Company expanded the economy by making cars available to all Americans and stimulating industries related to the automobile empire. One way Henry Ford expanded the economy was by making automobiles available to all Americans. His Motor Company helped him produce and manufacture tons of cars. In order to get his company running, he had to pay employees at a lower rate, but also made sure they were paid enough so expenses were affordable. The automobiles made Its Impact felt first In rural areas where cars were used for oaring.They were also used for pastime on the weekends and soon enough the cars were replacing existing transit that brought people to and from work in urban areas (Melodies). Automobiles spurred over many areas, but rural areas were first because of all the activities happening on the weekends. As well as, the number of people who used automobiles to get to and from work. As a matter of fact, â€Å"the convenience of the automobile freed people from the need to live near rail lines or stations; they could choose locations almost anywhere in an urban area, as long as roads were available to connect them to other places† ( History of Automobile).The automobile allowed people to live wherever they chose to rather than living in a specific area, Just so they could get to work or travel places. â₠¬Å"As automobile sales increased, the demand for fuel led to a more systematic way of delivery, and In 1914, Standard 011 of California opened a chain of 34 standardized stations among the West Coast† (Melodies). This is implying that the demand for fuel allowed the automobile companies produce more so that they could get more consumers and increase the assure for all Americans.In fact, â€Å"three hundred men were now employed by the Ford Motor Company, and they were making twenty-five cars a day, and the company was supplying a sales force of 450 agencies across the continent† ( Titlists). The more men meant that more cars were produced, and the more cars produced intended that more cars were available to the employees and any other Americans. Ford's Company later â€Å"increased the production of cars by building several models offering different amenities be sold simultaneously at deferent prices, the company's ratters hoped to maximize their profits by appealing t o a large number of car buyers† (39).By building more different models people had the option to choose what type of car they wanted to get. It also allowed an average American to decide whether to purchase a stylish car that less expensive, or a appealing car that was more class; however, with various models, even a simple car was made affordable by an average household. Overall, cars helped the workers and the Americans because it reduced the work they had to put into carrying parts to and from work and it allowed any people to live freely rather than living in an area where communication to work was accessible.Another way Henry Ford expanded the economy was by stimulating industries related to the automobile empire. For example, â€Å"oil and steel were two well- established industries that received a serious boost by the demand for automobiles† (Age of the Automobile). Many industries like the oil and steel were increasing production for more automobiles being produc ed. During this automobile era, â€Å"manufacturing became a highly mechanized process in which mass manufacturing was performed by unskilled workers and the assembly line cut down on human handling, and machines were designed to handle multiple tasks†(Bianca).In other words, quick development was a very important skill that unskilled workers had to master; however, this was made easy because a lot of the times machines did most of the work and the workers would have to put a little effort to make sure everything was right. This enabled Ford â€Å"to increase production from about 475 cars in a nine-hour day to more than 1,200 auto assemblies in an eight-hour day' (Bianca). Due to more manufacturing of cars and more products of steel, rubber, and glass being created, Ford increased the production of the assembly lines.Having raw materials such as rubber and steel available in the market, â€Å"more people would buy raw materials and products, which stimulated public spendin g throughout. † This gave Ford a chance to another company called â€Å"The Ford Manufacturing Company, which was started to produce engines, running gears and other car parts† (Tilting, 41). Ford realized that in order for the cars to be perfect, he needed another company to aka all his cars stronger, so different industries with different productions parts were created to increase the production of automobiles even more.Although Ford's ultimate goal was to increase the production of automobile, he also focused on the efficiency of the automobiles. His major concern regarding the efficiency was â€Å"mainly towards the strength and reliability, knowing that the metal he was using for certain parts, such as the gears, was too brittle, so he looked out for a stronger kind of steel† (45). Ford knew that if his gears or any other car part broke, the car would be selves, so he wanted to guarantee that his car would be stronger and more efficient than anything else on the market.Thus, Ford not only expanded the production of automobiles, but also other industries that played a major role in producing an automobile. Consequently, Henry Ford has played a huge leadership role because he made Americans lives better. He used many techniques that improved the economy. He did most of this by expanding his company so cars were available to Americans, and by stimulating public spending through many industries. The auto industry provided tit a large market of steel, rubber, glass and petroleum products.All of which were available to consumers in the market at any time. Cars made exploration of the world outside easier and more affordable, which motivated public spending for good roads. His production line manufacturing was widely used for efficiency because before to work or other parts of the city. Many even traveled really far Just to get to work, because trains were mostly the means of transportation before the automobiles (Melodies). Shortly after the inventions of automobiles, the lives of many Americans hanged and the production of cars increased.
