Assessment approach to stage of lean transformation cycle based on fuzzy nearness degree and TOPSIS
提出一种基于模糊贴近度和TOPSIS的方法，从企业层面评估精益转型的阶段，适用于制造业等行业判断转型进展。
This paper presents an assessment method to measure the lean transformation (LT) stage of an LT enterprise. Although there are many assessment tools to measure the various aspects of lean practices in enterprises, there is none to measure the stage of LT using the enterprise transformation characteristics from enterprise level. In this paper, the characteristic metrics and characteristic model of LT cycle were extracted from the basic capacity, process power and transformation results. Then, an assessment approach based on fuzzy nearness degree and TOPSIS is proposed to determine the stage of LT. Finally, an example is shown to highlight the procedure of the proposed method. This paper shows that the proposed model is very well suited as an assessment tool for enterprises in the manufacturing industry and other industries to evaluate the LT stage.
