| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 工學院工程管理專班 === 94 === Taiwan's auto parts industry has faced various challenges and competition either from Southeast Asian countries with low cost productivity, or severe requests for more strict quality from customers, fast and efficient delivery, cost down and even pursuing best profit for the company, etc.
Lean production to be studied here is an improvement action to cost down and eliminate waste in manufacturing productions, in which the auto parts industry has seeking for applications in their production reform and to break through the current facing difficulties. It is also a requested from the upstream, center company that all downstream anto-parts factories should keep up with their competitiveness by adopting and practicing the lean production methodology so as to improve their productivity in fulfilling the required quality and schedule, not to mention to cost down but still maintain the company profits. The preliminary result seems to be insignificant with little improvement.
Therefore, this thesis is intended to analyze the content and spirit of the lean production to be effectively implemented in Taiwan’s auto parts industries in resolving some barriers in application of this new concept. Through careful investigations of the three factories that have been carrying out the lean production and interviewing four factories as the case study, the following two items are concluded to indicate the important factors in applying the lean production as:
(1)The key factors of success for practicing lean production.
(2) A model of procedures for success in practicing lean production.
It is noted as well that the present study can also be applied to the relevant industries when practicing the lean production, but the key factors or procedures for success could be different due to different productions in nature.
