“…It is a culture where operators develop a sense of ownership for their machines and become allies of maintenance staff to ensure that machines operate properly every day. Lean contributes to create an environment in which people share similar values and behaviors (Soliman, Saurin & Anzanello, 2018). The operational thinking of the TPM is: "My machine, my responsibility, I receive well, I deliver well".…”

Purpose: This research proposes an implementation model of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) based on the analysis of criticality of machines in the sewing process in the Ecuadorian footwear industry and the identification of unproductive times caused by labor failures.Design/methodology/approach: The project uses field research, presents a quantitative approach, the data collection is done in a horizon of 8 months in which the information is condensed in data tables and takes as a case study one of the most successful companies in the Ecuadorian footwear industry for its initiative to innovate their processes and research new technologies that help increase their efficiency.Findings: The results allow to demonstrate the successful application of the proposed model in the industrial sector of footwear with an increase of average production standards of 5% and a reduction in the number of human errors of 72.2%.Practical implications: The model allows to execute several activities in four phases: preparatory, introduction, implementation and consolidation in order to develop TPM in sewing process.Originality/value: The paper describes a case study in a major shoe company with the aim of reducing the times for unscheduled stoppages and the number of failures.

“…On the other hand, the lean principles are responsible for delivering or adapting the environment to the development of a product that is focused on agility, quality and value to the client. At the same time, it offers the tactical knowledge of transferable engineering experience to the next generations of collaborators on the project team through active learning [26]. In addition, value, understood from the client's perspective, is the central focus of the lean methodology, since every activity in the organization must result in value for the client.…”

Lean Software Development (LSD) is a set of principles and practices that seek to increase the value of the organization by improving quality and software development processes, through value flow mapping and waste removal. Because of LSD's contributions, many organizations are interested in implementing it; however, adopting the principles and practices of LSD without knowing the correct process leads to the premature abandonment of this methodology. Therefore, describing the implementation process through a formal and theoretical language, such as a basic ontology, allows you to have a greater perception of the elements to consider if you want to implement LSD. The objective of this research is to develop a base ontology for the implementation of Lean Software Development in an organization using a mature software development process.

“…In linear systems, close coupling is an optimal way to organize (Perrow 1992: 132). The more tightly coupled a system is, the faster and more efficient work can be done, as is to be achieved, for example, with lean management, which is popular with corporate consultants, and through just-in-time production processes (Saurin et al 2013;Soliman et al 2018). However, this increases the dependency on the supplier or a network of suppliers.…”

Aim: The article is intended to contribute to a discussion on risks related to the CoViD-19 pandemic, which was started in the last issues of this journal. Findings: The article discusses the thesis that conventional risk management is reaching its limits in its application in companies, particularly with regard to low-probability but high-impact events its applications seems nor appropriate. In complex and tightly coupled systems like global supply chains, catastrophic events must be considered "normal". The risk of a global pandemic is well known, and at the end of 2019 the first signs of an impending outbreak were also evident. Nevertheless, the global pandemic and the gradual lockdown was surprising in that no precautionary measures were taken. Therefore, this paper argues for a change of perspective from traditional risk management to BCM and for increasing the resilience of supply chains. Keywords: CoViD-19, risk management, black swans, business continuity, supply chain resilience
