Some Issues to Consider in Lean Production

Abstract

Lean production starts from the premise that adding value and reducing waste are the primary goals of any business. Lean production is a philosophy with a series of tools to get to the top and to stay there. But for many still, the teething pains of change and a steep climb are too much to bear and sustain. There are a number of weak points in a company that makes it difficult if not impossible to achieve the promised gains for the efforts they put in. To implement lean requires careful planning. This paper discusses some of the basic issues that companies should consider and follow when going the transition of change to lean production system.
