摘要:With emerging globalization and adverting huge competition among the companies, all participants are looking towards improving their core competency, and follow a way to make a better profit margin for them, through the elimination of waste and increase in their productivity which can be achieve through a concept of lean production and especially just-in-time (JIT) practices. In Malaysia, it is still a new concept and many local companies are not as good as their international counterpart, which are active in Malaysia. As a result, in this paper we are going to examine critical success practice (CSP) for implementing lean production among international firms, which are active in Malaysia and through a survey on leaders in lean production in Malaysia extract a general pattern for other Malaysian companies for improving their lean practices.
