Abstract

A literature review revealed that many papers have described the implementation of Lean Manufacturing (LM) in organizations spanning various sectors spread across different parts of the world. It was also found that there is a wide variation among the implementing organizations in utilizing the various tools / techniques / practices / procedures (‘elements’ in short) of LM. In this study, an attempt has been made to check whether such a phenomenon exist in Indian industry apart from understanding how Indian organizations implement LM. Meta-data analysis, which relies on the data from the existing literature related to LM case studies, is used to address these issues. It is believed that such a study will provide a better understanding to the academicians and practitioners regarding the implementation of LM elements across organizations from different sectors in India.
