  2. 2. Exploring organizational translation : A case study of changes toward Lean Production

    Författare :Jostein Langstrand; Mattias Elg; Bo Bergman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Organizational change; Lean Production; Organizational translation; Organisatorisk förändring; lean; organisatorisk översättning;

    Sammanfattning : Lean Production has received massive attention during recent years, and many organizations attempt to introduce it with an ambition to reach the radical improvement effects that are promised in the popular management literature. However, introducing a management concept can be a very challenging task, and research has shown that the majority of such initiatives fail. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Applying lean principles and set-based approaches in product development

    Författare :Mikael Ström; RISE Research Institutes of Sweden; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Set-based design; Controlled convergence; Concept development; Lean product development; Lean transformation; Industrial introduction;

    Sammanfattning : The research described in this thesis addresses the problem of transformation to lean product development (LPD) and how to introduce and support the use of set-based design (SBD) in the concept development process. The original description of SBD does not define how to generate, evaluate and reduce a set of design solutions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Improving engineering change processes by using lean principles

    Författare :Mikael Ström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lean; information; engineering change; principles; PLM; product development;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this research was to test the usefulness of the 13 lean principles for product development by Morgan & Liker when improving an engineering change (EC) process. The EC-process was studied at four firms. The firms were active in three different industrial branches. Two of the firms are situated in Sweden and two in Finland. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Value-adding deployment of corporate lean programs in multinational production companies

    Författare :Sara Linderson; Monica Bellgran; Seyoum Eshetu Birkie; Lars Bengtsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lean production; Deployment; Program management; Company-specific production systems; XPS; Knowledge transfer; Strategy implementation; Lean produktion; Utrullning; Programledning; Kunskapsöverföring; XPS; Företagsspecifika produktionssystem; Strategiimplementering; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Management;

    Sammanfattning : Strategic improvement programs, which aim for corporate-wide lean transformation, are resource-demanding and challenging to deploy. Industrial manufacturers often develop company-specific production system (XPS) programs to coordinate the lean transformation simultaneously in multiple production sites. LÄS MER
