Abstract:
Lean management is an approach to running an organization that supports the concept of continuous improvement, a long-term approach to work that systematically seeks to achieve small, incremental changes in processes in order to improve efficiency and quality. In this research, design and implementation of Lean Management concept in a production company was addressed. The method for implementing lean management is based on Jackson & Jones Method in implementing a lean management system. This method starts with the business renewal process. The output of this process is company’s vision and a development plan. After that, the first strategic improvement cycle starts for a period. There are nine keys of development in Jackson’s method. First, fitness of this model is examined. Also, correlations of these nine keys were reviewed and it was concluded that the leadership, customer focus and lean production are most correlated.
