  • Evaluation of critical success factors for successful implementation of Lean Six Sigma in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in India
    Mandar Sumant, Jitendra Mistry, Pallavi Agarwal
    Australian Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2025
    This research delves into the landscape of India's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) sector, which plays a pivotal role in the nation's economic progress. The challenges for SMEs include limited access to financial resources, constrained reserves, and the competition posed by more giant corporations. To comprehend the obstacles hindering the development and sustained growth of Indian SMEs, it becomes imperative to formulate policies and strategies. Recognising the latent potential of SMEs to foster innovation, create employment opportunities, and contribute significantly to overall economic growth becomes paramount. SMEs form the backbone of various economies, including India's, and comprehending the sector's challenges and opportunities in a changing commercial milieu assumes critical importance. In the context of India, this study explores the catalysts driving transformations in the corporate sphere, encompassing factors like globalisation, technological strides, evolving consumer preferences, and governmental regulations. Furthermore, it highlights the hurdles and opportunities confronting SMEs in this scenario – challenges related to securing funding, acquiring talents, adopting advanced technologies, and penetrating new marketplaces. Incorporating the perspective of Lean Six Sigma for its capacity to enhance efficiency and quality can significantly enrich this research. Lean Six Sigma's relevance to the factors lies in its potential to streamline operations, reduce waste, and improve overall processes. Integrating Lean Six Sigma principles into the discourse could provide invaluable insights into India's SME sector, offering guidance to policymakers, CEOs, and stakeholders in making informed decisions that facilitate the growth and progression of this vital sector.
  • Review of lean-green manufacturing practices in SMEs for sustainable framework
    Mandar Sumant, Anjali Negi
    International Journal of Business Innovation and Research, 2018
    Lean manufacturing aims at maximising the resource utilisation through minimisation of waste and respond to the fluctuating and competitive business environment, whereas GM concept addresses a various manufacturing matters, say recycling, waste management, environmental protection and so on. Lean manufacturing and its integration with green manufacturing practices benefits both industries and society. This review paper identifies prime elements of lean and green manufacturing and throws light on current scenario in small and medium enterprises. The paper begins with brief introduction about lean and green manufacturing concept. In Section 2, literature review presents the elements of lean and green manufacturing practices. Section 3 comprises two parts: 1) highlights principle of sustainability-oriented framework; 2) significant features of MDCM models. Section 4 focuses on current scenario of Indian SMEs in context of sustainable lean-green manufacturing practices and its comparison with SMEs in other countries. Section 5 presents conclusion of and future scope of the paper.
