Assessment of Lean Maturity Level in Manufacturing Cells

摘要

In this paper, a visual, data-driven operational level lean maturity model is developed. The model can be used to assess the level of lean in seven axes of manufacturing cells. A case study is carried out for gathering data of analysis and explanatory study of results. Results of study show that the developed model can be used to measure the overall leanness through analysis of lean in each axis. The model can be applied by practitioners as a framework to design and develop a company-specific lean maturity model.
