Sažetak
Lean focuses on the removal of waste so that all processes in the total system add value from the customers’ perspectives. Although Lean was first developed in the automobile industry, it has been successfully applied in shipbuilding. Successful application of Lean principles brings high level of flexibility to production enabling shipyards comfort of producing different kind of vessels with all activities needed to change type of production performed in shortest possible time with the lowest possible costs. In the paper, the Lean principles and approaches, used in modern manufacturing for process improvements, are firstly described. Possibilities of application of Lean principles to processes in shipbuilding industry, especially in production of assemblies and subassemblies of ship hull, are evaluated. Prerequisites for method application in shipyard operations are examined and explained. Interaction and correspondence with other quality improvement methodologies, such as Six Sigma, is presented.
