Case study analyzes ERP and lean philosophy's effect on production efficiency in manufacturing SMEs, indicating significant improvements.
This study aims to identify the impact of a work methodology that combines ERP with the benefits of using lean philosophy. A sectored approach takes into account highly traditional manufacturing SMEs, such as metal fabrication, that are particularly vulnerable to new market trends. In addition, from these vulnerabilities new challenges have to be faced regarding the Industry 4.0 concept and the strategies toward their digital manufacturing workshop transformation, focusing not only on producing improved manufacturing processes but also on gaining added value. A case study was conducted on a Spanish company aiming at showing and analyzing its transformation model. The results showed greater management capacity and efficiency improvements in production-related processes.
