“…Most scientific research on lean management has a qualitative and interpretative approach (Pearce and Pons, 2019), in which case study is the preferred method (Pearce and Pons, 2019;Sinha and Matharu, 2019). In this field, this study introduces a discussion of lean management in the administrative areas, based on the theoretical framework of information management.…”

Purpose Lean office covers the improvement of administrative processes and information flows. In offices, one of the essential challenges is to coordinate the development of information management capabilities. Thus, this paper aims to identify the key factors of information management in lean office deployment contexts. Design/methodology/approach By adopting a qualitative approach, it consists of theoretical research that applies grounded theory's coding technique and exploits 27 scientific studies on lean office published in the past 20 years. Findings It identifies five key factors for managing information into an organizational structure that optimizes information flow, such as “information-seeking,” “access to information,” “information quality,” “information processing” and “use of information and communication technology”. Research limitations/implications Data analysis was restricted in scientific research regarding lean office deployment. Therefore, the accuracy of the concepts and categories of information management proposed in this paper can be adjusted and validated in future research, thus deepening the discussion of its findings. Practical implications It highlights issues for managing information in contemporary organizations such as failures in information retrieval, restrictions on access to information, lack of quality information, inadequate information processing criteria and inefficiency of information systems infrastructure. Originality/value It analyzes the lean office deployment from the theoretical framework of information management. Thus, it differs from other studies in this field because it is not limited to the operational aspects of lean management. Nevertheless, it shows that lean office reconfigures information flows and continually improves organizations’ strategic management.

“…The lean principle and digital transformation can be applied in tandem to deliver innovation (Sanders, Elangeswaran & Wulfsberg, 2016). The Internet of Think (IoT) enables the disrupting and revolutionizing of the lean principle rendering it relevant to current business trends (Sinha & Matharu, 2019). Integrated IT management is crucial since it enables the PSC to ensure product availability, provide a more rapid customer service and enhance both inventory control and product visibility (Guimarães et al, 2013).…”

“…Another literature review was completed by Ciccullo et al (2018) who studied 73 academic papers which addressed the integration of lean, agile and sustainable supply chain management paradigm. A recent work contributed by Sinha and Matharu (2019) reviewed 447 research articles drawn from 51 academic journals. They indicated that the interest in the lean principle has gained momentum over the past few years due to global competition and increasing operational costs.…”

Purpose: This study aims to review the previous literature on the topic contained in the title in order to identify gaps in the existing research relating to lean supply chain-related issues within the pharmaceutical industry since limited attention has been devoted to this sector. Design/methodology/approach: This study presents a systematic literature review that proposes an analysis and classification of the previous literature as falling within one of four categories, namely; the supply chain area, research approach, research objective, and lean supply chain elements.Findings: The results of this study indicate that most attention was focused on manufacturing, while upstream suppliers, downstream activities and the entire supply chain process have received comparatively scant consideration. Similarly, the issues of information technology management, supplier management, customer relations, and logistics management as well as practitioner involvement represent inadequately developed topics. Future research should address these omissions, in addition to the integration of quality compliance and digital innovation as they relate to pharma 4.0.Practical implications: This article serves as a guide to acquiring sufficient knowledge of the pharmaceutical supply chain prior to implementing lean supply chain management. Moreover, it is anticipated that the research it contains will contribute to eradicating the knowledge gap by expanding the existing limited body of literature on the adoption of lean approach in the PSC.Originality/value: This study is one of a limited number of literature analyses potentially helpful in developing a roadmap of lean principle application to the pharmaceutical supply chain

The purpose of the study is to summarize the applied experience of lean management in Ukrainian companies and compare it with the practices of foreign companies. The objects of the study were such companies as Starbucks (USA), Nike (USA), Philips (Netherlands), Volvo Cars (Sweden), Nova Poshta (Ukraine), Alfa-Bank (Ukraine), Kyivstar (Ukraine), MHP (Ukraine). The author analyzes the advantages of lean management, its impact on profitability, productivity, quality, operational processes, compared with the results of lean implementation in Ukraine. The systematized modern practices of lean management are the model "a deep-dive experience", an Obeya room and leanleadership. The principles of lean in Ukrainian business have been analyzed, it has been determined that in general the management is focused on optimization of operational processes, automation of production, efficient organization of workspaces. Attention is drawn to the fact that in domestic companies, lean management hasn't covered the entire organization, hasn't become its philosophy, hasn't determined the strategy of its development, but is rather periodic and fragmentary so far. The results of the study prove that in general Ukrainian organizations are moving in the right direction, based on their capabilities, the feasibility of developing an adapted algorithm for implementing lean management not only in large business but also in medium and small business.
