This book provides a step-by-step guide to implementing lean at
SMEs using an approach that has been tested and fine-tuned at over
a hundred organizations across India, South East Asia and the
Middle East. The book approaches Lean through an implementation
project cycle flow and enables the reader to understand the
imperative for Lean, how to diagnose current operations, how to
plan and deploy Lean and shows a path for long-term sustenance.
Diverse situations such as meeting the demand fluctuations,
designing a facility, or improving profit margin etc. are included
in the case studies from multiple sectors, to ensure that every
reader finds a situation similar to their organizational situation.
While the publicly available literature on lean offers a large
collection of tools and techniques, given each organization's
unique context, the choice of the right sequence of tools differ.
The book offers guidelines in terms of which solutions work in
which context, backed by real-cases, which is a big help to the
resource constrained SMEs. This book is an equally good resource
for the organizations that have already implemented lean, as it
provides realistic pointers about sustaining, tackling supply chain
uncertainties and going beyond Lean by integrating emerging
technologies and management principles. It is an excellent resource
for students and researchers studying this area and also for
corporates, professionals and industry watchers.
