Abstract The main purpose of this study is to identify the adoption of the lean manufacturing along with comparative study of critical success factor with performance indicator. This study helps to find the relation of both parameters in Lean Manufacturing practices. A survey is conducted within the automobile parts manufacturing organization of the Gujarat. The present study illustrates the normality test of the data obtained from the survey and multiple regression analysis of the available data in terms of the critical success factors and performance indicator within organization. The relationship between critical success factor and performance indicator has been examined through various segments of automotive industries. This study also emphasize on variation in awareness of Lean Manufacturing with number of employees, age of organization, tier of organization, product mix and operation type. Keywords: Lean Manufacturing, Critical Success Factors, Performance Indicator, Normality Test, Multiple Regression Analysis, Krushkal Wallis Test _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ I.

INTRODUCTION

Lean manufacturing is a systematic method for the elimination of waste ("Muda") within a manufacturing system. Lean manufacturing makes obvious what adds value, by reducing everything else which not adding value. This management philosophy is derived mostly from the Toyota Production System (TPS). Lean Manufacturing is a philosophy and art of manufacturing; it is not a quantified tool. It is not providing any scale to depict the percentage of implementation; hence there are certain challenges which act a bottleneck while implementing the lean manufacturing. This study consists of critical success factor and performance indicator amongst the rest of parameters such as barriers, environmental factors, executional factors, organizational factors etc. Critical success factor are the phase which favors the implementation of the lean manufacturing. It is a kind of practice which is mandatory in lean manufacturing implementation, while performance indicator is a measure of success factors. It can be scrutinize in various criteria such as financial, customer, process, people, future etc. Table 1.1 shows the methodology carried out for this research work. Sr. No. 1 2 3 4 5
