Lean, a management system based on the Toyota Production System, is increasingly being applied to healthcare contexts with mixed outcomes. While there are many case studies reporting on the outcomes of Lean implementation, there is little empirical evidence indicating which factors influence Lean implementation. Furthermore, there is an absence of critical and theory building research of Lean implementation. This study specifically addressed these gaps by identifying some of the enablers and inhibitors of Lean implementation, using empirical methods. 2014-12-27T14:06:31Z 2014-12-27T14:06:31Z 2011 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10216 eng application/pdf School of Management Studies Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town |
