enterprises (SMEs) represent an important component of the economy in both developed and developing
countries. Nowadays, the competitive industrial environment is encouraging
these companies to redesign their manufacturing practices. Lean manufacturing
(LM) has been widely implemented in several industries and has been shown to have
had a positive impact on the performance and development of companies. This review aims to examine this impact on the performance of
manufacturing companies, to emphasize the recent progress of LM amongst SMEs worldwide,
and to show that most successful LM initiatives are those implemented in SMEs
and large companies. However, very small businesses (VSBs) are struggling to
introduce LM into their management systems. A new approach has been developed
to establish a new lean implementation framework that could be adapted
to the specific context of VSBs. |
