The article "Lean Supplier Development: A Synopsis" speaks directly to the correlation between the amount of raw inventory on-hand and supplier performance. Also, there are several of the human relations aspects discussed in the "Lean Manufacturing Tool Kit" article. Feel free to write or call if you have specific issues you'd like to discuss.

Lean and agile manufacturing differ in terms of drivers and outcomes. 1. The key characteristics that different agile from lean are that an agile manufacturing system is highly capable of developing new products and providing customization opportunities in an efficient manner. 2. Lean Manufacturing has a significant impact on cost performance whereas agile manufacturing has not, and that agile manufacturing has a stronger relationship with volume as well as product mix flexibility than does lean manufacturing. Without agility (In Agile Manufacturing) leanness (In Lean Manufacturing) can lead to shortages. NO.Lean and Agile Manufacturing is not the same.It is used only interchangeably.
