Abstract: | quotIndian manufacturing industries are gaining more attention due to globalization, but they are facing the challenges of cost reduction, speed to market, customer satisfaction, flexibility and quality. Since long firms are exploring the solutions for different issues like higher lead time, work in process, defects, proper housekeeping and total participation of employees. They are trying to reduce or eliminate the non value added activities which are not creating any wealth for the organization and hence not supporting to improve competitiveness in the market. Manufacturers are focusing on reduction of production time and cost. To be competitive, development of smart manufacturing strategy is essential for sustainable growth. newlineLean manufacturing principles and practices can play a vital role to achieve the strategic goal of manufacturing and can improve the manufacturing performance and hence the competitiveness. Numbers of research works are reported in the area of lean in various countries focusing on service and manufacturing sectors. But in India there is only a hand count numbers that focus on application of lean principles in manufacturing sector. An attempt is made in this research to identify specific relationship between the practices and the manufacturing performance measures. Present research work also has the motive of making suggestions for competitiveness index of India through manufacturing performance with the help of lean principles and manufacturing practices. newlineTo achieve the objectives of this research a survey is conducted to collect feedbacks from manufacturing industries of India and opinions from the industry and academic experts using questionnaire tool exclusively developed for the purpose. Cyclic framework is developed and verified with identified parameters of lean manufacturing practice (LMP) for improving competitive dimension (CD) and manufacturing performance measure (MPM). A set of guidelines is proposed to select LMP for improving CD and MPM. newlinePublished case studies of industries, |
