Journal Title: Research in Logistics & Production - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper describes the course of the process of starting up a new assembly line with embedded Lean Management approach in one of production companies in Wroclaw. There were documented the processes of implementing and maintaining the manufacturing and logistics solutions as well as organizational and behavioural solutions that provide the basis for the new system. Then the results of the improvements to be implemented were analysed in relation to the area functioning in accordance with the old system within the same production hall. The issue of disturbances in the system approach in connection with the introduction of changes was discussed only for a single process.
