Purpose The aim of this paper is to review metrics and develop a framework for measuring leagile supply chain. Metrics that are applicable in the lean, agile strategies identified literature then combined into can reflect both lean – strategy. Design/methodology/approach This work based on systematic review. Literature was collected, were extracted, analysed, counted grouped framework. Findings...

İşletmeler, küresel rekabette hayatta kalabilmek için, üretim kaynaklarını daha iyi kullanarak verimliliklerini arttırmak zorundadır. Bu sebeple, katma değerli olmayan faaliyetlerinin ortadan kaldırılması ve süreçlerde sürekli iyileştirme yapılması yoluyla, değer yaratmalarına müşterilerinin gereksinimlerini karşılamalarına yardımcı olan yalın yönetim ilkelerini giderek fazla uygulamaktadırlar....

Abstract Objective: In this article, the methods used to simplify business modelling and founding of new companies are presented critically reflected. Furthermore, it is discussed what extent a specific method advantageous, disadvantageous, applicable, not or even contradictory. Methodology: The theoretical analysis underpinned by qualitative interview study asking company founders about applyi...

Mouse lines long-term selected for high fatness offer the possibility to identify individual genes involved in the development of obesity. The Berlin Fat Mouse (BFM) line has been selected for low protein content and afterward for high fatness. Three Berlin Fat Mouse Inbred (BFMI) lines, which are derivates of the selection line BFM and an unselected control line (C57BL/6; B6) were systematical...

Purpose: In recent years, although several studies have focused on Lean Six Sigma project selection, none of them have applied a Lean Six Sigma approach to evaluate e-health reference architectures. Therefore, there is a significant gap of Lean Six Sigma application for e-Health architectures in e-Health care quality improvement literature. In this paper, we present a Lean Six Sigma approach to...

The purpose of this paper is to present a classification of Lean models which aims to capture all the concepts related to this approach and thus facilitate its implementation. This classification allows the identification of the most relevant models according to several dimensions. From this perspective, we present a review and an analysis of Lean models literature and we propose dimensions for...

To stay competitive, companies facing today’s levels of unprecedented global competition must design and offer better products and services and improve their manufacturing operations. Lean manufacturing has been used to improve operational performance. Operations management is concerned with converting materials and labor into goods and services as efficiently as possible to maximize the profit...

Mononethanolamine (MEA)-based absorption-stripping for CO2 capture is studied. Energy demands in this process are dominated by the stripping column. The shortest stripping line distance approach is used to determine minimum energy requirements for the MEA stripping column under various lean loadings. Simultaneous reaction and vapor-liquid equilibrium is assumed and modeled by the direct incorpo...
