Abstract

The benefits of employing Lean Manufacturing (LM) on industrial organizational performance is still an ongoing debate. This paper aims to explore the impact of implementing LM techniques on operational performance across different industries in Saudi Arabia. A structural LM model that is consistent with the Toyota Production System (TPS) was presented. For data collection in established companies a structured survey was used. Of the 120 companies contacted, 67 useful responses imply a response rate of 55.8 % were obtained. The structural and operational models have been evaluated using the Social Sciences Statistics Program (SPSS) and SmartPLS 3. The results showed that by implementing the specified LM tools, the operational performance can be enhanced.
