Abstract

The aim of the research is correct realization of some major ideas lying in the basis of the “lean production” organization system at Ukrainian machine-building plants and taking into consideration Ukrainian reality. The analyzed Ukrainian machine-building plant use expensive modern processing centers instead of universal equipment. The usage of these processing centers allows to reduce the duration of production time (cycle), but increases technological prime price significantly even taking into account the fact that WIP increases in the latter case. The usage of heavy vehicles and human resources differs in Ukrainian and Japanese enterprises since the cost of the vehicles' usage and human work is very different. The research proves that implementation of this system at Ukrainian machine-building plants doesn't always take into consideration the main regulations of the lean production.
