| Summary: | Nowadays, more and more manufacturing firms have started to implement lean production system in their
operations. The lean production is view as one of the mechanism to maintain the organization’s position and to
compete globally. However, many fail to apply the lean concepts successfully in their operations. Based on previous
studies, implementation of lean production in the manufacturing industry is more focus on the relationship between
Lean and Operational Performance of one dimension only. Therefore, this study attempted to examine the
relationship between Lean Production (LP) and Performance Operation of various dimensions. This study employed
quantitative study using questionnaires. Data was collected from 50 manufacturing industries. The data was
analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). This study is hoped to shed new understanding of the concept
of Lean Production (LP) |
