Abstract

The motive behind this paper is to recognize the notion of lean manufacturing, its ideology, several tools and techniques, benefits gained after application and various hurdles towards lean application. As lean techniques reduce waste and increases resource utilization efficiency. There is necessity for lean manufacturing almost in every industry due to competitive environment. Due to fast changing business and its environment, firms are set to face challenges and complexities. It is a useful technique to diminish the movement of non-value-added time. This paper presents a Literature review and tries to recognize the main and handy contributions to this subject. Lean manufacturing uses a different span of methodologies and techniques. Many factors contribute to lean success; not only it is compulsory to implement most of the lean tools, but an organization’s culture needs transformation too. Companies following lean manufacturing have better flexibility and a good market share.

Keywords
