Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the extent of Lean Management implementation in Polish manufacturing enterprises that declare the adoption of the lean philosophy. The study also aimed to identify areas for further development and provide practical recommendations for companies seeking to enhance their Lean Management practices. Design/methodology/approach: A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a survey of Polish manufacturing enterprises to assess the degree of implementation of Lean Management principles in key areas such as customer relationships, supplier relationships, employee engagement, Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), and pull/flow processes. The comprehensive survey covered a wide range of Lean Management practices and was administered online to a sample of Polish manufacturing enterprises. Data from the survey was analyzed using a variety of statistical techniques, including descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The data was used to identify patterns and trends in Lean implementation practices. Findings: The results of the study indicated that Lean Management practices are relatively well-established in Polish manufacturing enterprises in each of the assessed areas. However, significant differences were observed between areas, with the highest levels of implementation observed in customer relationships and employee engagement, and the lowest in supplier relationships and pull/flow processes. Research limitations/implications: The primary limitations of the study lie in its reliance on self-assessment data and the potential bias of respondents. Additionally, the generalization of results is limited to a specific sample of Polish manufacturing enterprises. Nevertheless, the study provides valuable insights into the current state of Lean Management implementation in Poland and identifies areas for further development. Practical implications: The study suggests that Polish manufacturing enterprises should prioritize the continued implementation of lean practices in the areas of supplier relationships and pull/flow processes. This requires coordinated efforts to strengthen supplier relationships, optimize supply chain management, and implement lean production principles to eliminate waste and enhance efficiency. Originality/value: The study contributes to existing knowledge on Lean Management implementation by providing a comprehensive assessment of its current state in Polish manufacturing enterprises. The findings offer practical guidance for companies seeking ways to improve their Lean Management practices and derive associated benefits.
