dc.description.abstractThis research explores the partial implementation of Lean Manufacturing at an electronics company in Malaysia. To take steps toward a more complete implementation of Lean, the research identified several non-lean aspects of the assembly process and proposed solutions based on Lean tools. These solutions progress Company A further down the never-ending Lean journey. The researcher uncovered several opportunities for improvement including implementing a pull system, waste reduction through two-bin materials replenishment and milkruns, standardization, schedule fixing, information technology, cellular layouts, and localized storage. The researcher obtained data through observation and interviews and presents these findings as a case study.en_US
