Making the lean manufacturing supply chain leap across small and medium scale industries (SMIs) in Malaysia

The aim of this paper is to present a framework mainly focussing on lean supply chains suitable for the operation of SMIs in Malaysia. This model shall present the strategies to instill supplier capabilities and the supporting activities in creating a lean supply chain across multiple tiers. This pa...
