Abstract
Improvements and benefits than can be obtained by using lean manufacturing and six sigma have been documented widely, however there are several reasons why a small business does not apply such philosophies, impacting seriously their competitiveness. It is shown a study case of small company, where the measurement and analysis of the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) not only represented a framework of the company, but rather a guide to change and improve the competitiveness of the organization.It also shows and proves the benefits that can be achieved by applying tools of lean manufacturing and six sigma.
