Leanness Achievement through People Development System in Implementing Lean Process Management
Many organizations fail to unlock the infinite potential of their workforce. In that case there will be more overhead, with more layers of management, which in turn could cause slower reaction times in fast changing business. Employees should only start, run and optimize the process, even develop...

| description | Many organizations fail to unlock the infinite potential of their
workforce. In that case there will be more overhead, with more layers of management, which in turn
could cause slower reaction times in fast changing business. Employees should only start, run and
optimize the process, even developing themselves with the aid of People Development Systems (PDS),
when they are under-equipped to handle the process. Approach: This study evaluate the improvement
for the degree of leanness and top management commitment possessed by the company after PDS was
implemented in the Kitting Department of the aerospace company. Quantitative measures were used to
document the case study. Results: Leanness and top management commitments for kitting department
shows significant improvement and strong relationship with problem solving capability which lead to
achievement of better Leanness level through the infrastructural investments. Conclusion: Hence, the
findings suggest or even prove that successful implementation of PDS which developed and equipped
employees can provide a wide array of benefits to any company, irrespective of the industry in which it
operates. |
