    Lean manufacturing frameworks: review and a proposed framework
    (Inder Science, 2016-09) Jasti, Naga Vamsi Krishna
    The objective of the study is to perform critical review and find out the inconsistencies of lean manufacturing (LM) frameworks. It has reviewed 35 frameworks in the field of LM as well as proposed an LM framework to overcome the shortcoming of the existing LM frameworks. It has performed review on various aspects of LM frameworks such as novelty of the framework, participation of various researchers, and verification aspects. It has found major inconsistencies in the existing LM frameworks such as lack of adaptation of existing framework, lack of contribution of consultants and practitioners, less number of frameworks verified, all LM frameworks were verified in developed countries and manufacturing sector as well as highly incoherent elements used. The outcome of research proposes development of a unified theory in LM field. Finally, the study proposes a comprehensive conceptual LM framework to show the way to develop unified framework in the field of LM with the help of coherent set of LM elements

    Development of a framework for lean enterprise
    (Emerald, 2020-06) Jasti, Naga Vamsi Krishna; Kota, Srinivas; Kale, Samir Ramdas
    Lean enterprise (LE) is one of the emerging fields because of its impact across industry sectors. There were many LE framework articles published in the past without reviewing or considering the already published literature which lead to lots of inconsistencies in the existing frameworks of LE. This study aims to critically review the existing frameworks to identify inconsistencies and propose a new LE framework to overcome limitations of the existing LE frameworks.

    Validity and reliability of lean manufacturing frameworks: An empirical study in Indian manufacturing industries
    (Emerald, 2014-10) Jasti, Naga Vamsi Krishna
    The purpose of this paper is to investigate, validity and reliability analysis on existing Lean manufacturing (LM) frameworks when applied to Indian organizations. LM is one of the best manufacturing strategies that are used by manufacturing plant managers to improve manufacturing capabilities.

    Lean production: literature review and trends
    (Taylor & Francis, 2014-07) Jasti, Naga Vamsi Krishna
    The purpose of this paper is to perform the analysis of literature review of lean production (LP). The analysis involved studying 546 research articles published from 1988 to 2011 in selected 24 operations research journals. The articles are classified by: time distribution of articles, research methodology, research stream, authorship patterns, sector-wise focus, popular elements in lean literature, focus of the articles on lean waste, and implementation status and performance measurement of various existing frameworks/models. Then, the suggestions for the future scope of research possibilities and development are identified. The study provides a taxonomical and integrated review of articles, puts up perspective into the conceptualisation and various critical parameters for research. The findings include: increase in empirical approach research articles, need of applying lean principles in the field of product development and enterprise level areas, need of more interregional research collaborations, need of lean elements as group instead of individual element, need of avoiding seven lean wastes instead of specific waste and lack of testing and validation of the proposed frameworks/models by researchers. The study results shall help researchers, academicians and professionals to focus on the growth, pertinence and research developments in the LP system field.
