Effective data collection and analysis for efficient implement of Standardized Work (SW) / Ahmed Jaffar, Nurul Hayati Abdul Halim and Noriah Yusoff

This research paper presents an implementation of one of the Lean Manufacturing (LM) tools, known as Standardized Work (SW), at an automotive assembly line in Malaysia. The main functions of SW are to design, develop, document and visualize a set of manufacturing process with detail and proper...
