Abstract

PurposeThe objective of this study is to investigate the barriers hindering the integration of lean manufacturing (LM) practices within the furniture industry of Bangladesh. The traditional operational paradigms in this sector have posed substantial challenges to the effective implementation of LM. In this study, the barriers of implementing LM in the furniture business are examined, aiming to provide a systematic understanding of the barriers that must be addressed for a successful transition.FindingsThe research reveals that “Fragmented Industry Structure,” “Resistance to Lean Practices” and “Inadequate Plant Layout and Maintenance”, emerged as the foremost barriers to LM implementation in the furniture industry. Additionally, “Insufficient Expert Management,” “Limited Technical Resources” and “Lack of Capital Investment” play significant roles.Research limitations/implicationsThe outcomes of this study provide valuable insights into the furniture industry, enabling the development of strategies for effective LM implementation. One notable challenge in lean implementation is the tendency to revert to established practices when confronted with barriers. Therefore, this transition necessitates informed guidance and leadership. In addition to addressing these internal challenges, the scope of lean implementation should be broadened.Originality/valueThis study represents one of the initial efforts to systematically identify and assess the barriers to LM implementation within the furniture industry of Bangladesh, contributing to the emerging body of knowledge in this area.

评估孟加拉国家具业采用精益生产的障碍:模糊-DEMATEL 研究
本研究的目的是调查孟加拉国家具行业在整合精益生产(LM)实践时遇到的障碍。该行业的传统运营模式对有效实施精益生产构成了巨大挑战。研究结果研究表明,"分散的行业结构"、"对精益生产实践的抵制 "和 "工厂布局和维护不足 "是家具行业实施精益生产的主要障碍。此外,"专家管理不足"、"技术资源有限 "和 "缺乏资本投资 "也发挥了重要作用。研究局限/影响本研究的成果为家具行业提供了宝贵的见解,有助于制定有效实施精益管理的战略。精益化实施过程中的一个显著挑战是,当遇到障碍时,人们倾向于回归既定做法。因此,这种转变需要明智的指导和领导。除了应对这些内部挑战外,还应扩大精益实施的范围。原创性/价值本研究是系统识别和评估孟加拉国家具行业精益管理实施障碍的初步努力之一,为这一领域的新兴知识体系做出了贡献。
