Analysis of Sustainable Lean Manufacturing Implementation in Pune Region Manufacturing Industries.

In business and industry, lean manufacturing techniques are employed to enhance sustainability. Through continuous improvement, lean culture influences the performance of our processes and fortifies our systems. The facility's culture is fostered and delivery success rates are increased by connecting customers and suppliers. The ultimate aim of this research is to draft a methodology to implement sustainable lean in the manufacturing sector of India. The proposed research would address management-related issues and critical success factors (CSFs). For the functioning of sustainable lean manufacturing (SLM). The questionnaires were distributed to managers of manufacturing companies in the Pune region, directors of management, managers of manufacturing, and executives of quality. The returned surveys were legitimate and may be utilized for data analysis after a visual inspection for faults. By calculating Cronbach's alpha, the research tool's reliability was examined. The information was analyzed using a statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) to get descriptive analysis which demonstrates how factors within each category impacted lean manufacturing using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis for a better understanding of the lean process. The study revealed success factors like continuous flow, leadership commitment, supplier partnership, and customer engagement impacting sustainable lean manufacturing implementation (SLMI) in manufacturing industries. Additionally, it indicates that barriers like lack of resources, and technological changes, have an impact on SLMI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
