This study addresses Lean Supply Chain Management (LSCM) adoption through a case study of four different supply networks of the aeronautics supply network. A literature review has identified a set of factors that were subsequently evaluated empirically and classified as initial facilitators or inhibitors for each of the supply networks. The findings also show how the management of various key determinants and the adoption of a range of LSCM practices make it possible to overcome the inhibiting factors and to leverage the facilitators. Finally, an adoption model was developed showing the interrelationships between the key determinants and the LSCM practices.

Abstract
This study addresses Lean Supply Chain Management (LSCM) adoption through a case study of four different supply networks of the aeronautics supply network. A literature review has identified a set of factors that were subsequently evaluated empirically and classified as initial facilitators or inhibitors for each of the supply networks. The findings also show how the management of various key determinants and the adoption of a range of LSCM practices make it possible to overcome the inhibiting factors and to leverage the facilitators. Finally, an adoption model was developed showing the interrelationships between the key determinants and the LSCM practices.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
