ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE LEAN PRODUCTION CONCEPT TOOLS IN AN INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISE
This work is devoted to the analysis of the effectiveness of the use of lean manufacturing tools. Currently, an urgent problem for each enterprise is a systematic cost reduction without sacrificing profit. This effect can be achieved by improving the quality of consumer properties of products or services, and accelerating the speed of the value stream. All this leads to improved competitiveness of products and services provided by the enterprise. The concept of lean manufacturing helps to solve this problem. Lean production is a system for organizing and managing product development, operations, relationships with suppliers and customers, in which products are manufactured in strict accordance with the needs of consumers and with fewer defects compared to products made using mass production technology. This reduces the cost of labor, space, capital and time. Mapping of value stream allows us to identify losses and act on them, as a rule, reducing, or in the ideal case, eliminating them completely. A value stream flow chart is a diagram that displays material and information flows during product creation. It helps to see the stream as a whole; to find all the losses, to see quickly the opportunities to improve the flow
