lean manufacturing

Posts Tagged ‘lean-principles’

The application of a new production philosophy, leading to “lean production” (using less space, less human effort, less product development time etc), is expected to change almost every industry and bring about radical changes in the organization of work. This book examines this process. It is the application of lean thinking principles to the construction industry flowing into the concept of lean construction. The work inside the construction industry is of course very much project orientated combining principles of lean and project management as a matter of emphasizing what is giving the edge to the lean concept here.
