Develop a framework of performance measurement and improvement system for lean manufacturing activity

A R T I C L E I N F O Lean manufacturing, Performance measurement and improvement system Received 01 October 2012 Accepted 01 June 2013 Available online 30 June 2013 Given the complexity, diversity and dynamic developments of business environment, conventional financial performance measures are inadequate for the present manufacturing environment. In this paper the development of a Performance Measurement and Improvement System (PMIS) framework for lean manufacturing practice is proposed. The PMIS framework is constructed by considering the hierarchical levels of the organization and multiple criteria for the lean manufacturing practice performance indicators. Identifying the relevant concepts, various methods associated with lean’s PMIS framework for lean manufacturing practice was developed from survey of literature. The PMIS framework consist of measurements throughout the organization that reflect the company’s lean strategies and goals, which it designed to motivate and monitor lean behaviour, and improve measurement results (continues improvement). This was produced the system in respect to the derived the key performance indicators that is applicable to organisations of various sizes (large, medium and small companies) within a range of industries. ________________________________ * Corresponding Author
