Similarities of Lean Manufacturing Approaches Implementation in SMEs Towards The Success: Case Study in the Automotive Component Industry

Nowadays, manufacturing companies are striving for a better system like lean manufacturing (LM). The primary objective of LM is to identify and eliminate wastes. LM can be applied successfully in all industries providing a full understanding of lean ingredients i.e. concept, principles, and practice...
