    Lean Manufacturing Case Study

    Uploaded by

    Mohamed Farag Mostafa
    This document presents a case study on implementing lean manufacturing principles at Hughes Christensen, a leading oilfield equipment manufacturer. The objectives are to develop a methodology for determining lean objectives and eliminating waste in material handling. The methodology involves defining management objectives through interviews and assessments, identifying opportunities through value stream mapping, and implementing lean tools to address issues. The case study focuses on the crown machining cell and reducing waste from stock material handling through a proposed staging device. Metrics are used to measure performance against operational and lean objectives before and after the changes.

    Managing Lean Manufacturing in

    Oilfield Equipment Industry



    Case Study
    Research Problem
    Operational objectives are set by top management and
    Lean Manufacturing is defined as a method of obtaining
    those objectives.

    Operational management is giving a set of lean
    principles but no way of establishing how to apply them
    or implement them.

    Operational management is often left with the task of
    defining the objectives of deploying lean principles.

    Materials Handling is often one of the key sources of
    waste in many companies.
    Research Objectives
    The objectives of this study are:
    To develop a methodology that can be used to
    assist in determining management objectives of
    lean manufacturing.
    To show how this methodology can be used to
    assist in eliminating waste in material handling
    processes.
    Case study will be limited to a single cell


    Research Approach
