By reducing the non-value activities in one hand, and emphasizing on continuous improvement on the other hand, the lean practices implemented open the path for superior level of financial and operational performance.

The correlation between the lean practices deployed within the transportation companies analyzed and their financial or operational performance has been established due to applying the SPSS quantitative methods, factor analysis and linear regression.
