Abstract

Thousands of small & medium scale industries are present in India. All are facing certain problems resulting in lack of productivity, greater processing time etc. The basis definition of Kaizen philosophy & a brief review of kaizen concept & its implementation. The purpose is to represent Kaizen, its related terms in a concrete way & its implementation in improving the overall effectiveness of small scale organization situated in India. This illustrate about kaizen implementation in small manufacturing industry & also focuses on the scenario of Indian manufacturing company while implementing Kaizen. This also reviews that it basically focuses on implementation of kaizen technique in small manufacturing companies. For detail justification of project conducted in the small manufacturing company who is dealing with manufacturing of Stainless Steel products. The company is currently facing the problem of increased lead time . In order to solve the faced problem we emphasize on two major alternatives & select Kaizen as a main productivity improvement tool. This implementation is focuses on reducing the lead time of sales order processing by mean of which the productivity of organization will be improved. Keywords: kaizen, lead time, steel products.
