文摘

Manufacturing systems across the globe are under pressure to improve the competitiveness and environmental performance. However, neither of lean manufacturing (LM) nor green manufacturing (GM) concepts distinctly provides a comprehensive workable solution to the challenges of the competitiveness and environmental performance. There is a need to make a bridge between LM and GM. So, a hybrid system of Lean–Green Manufacturing System (LGMS) is proposed which can handle the challenges of the manufacturing systems completely. However, adoption of such manufacturing systems in the existing industrial framework poses many issues which hinder the implementation of such system, although it leads to holistic improvement of manufacturing system performance. These issues are termed as ‘barriers’. In this research, a comprehensive and thorough study of the LM, GM and LGMS has been done to identify the barriers. These barriers are suitably analyzed to bring out some insights which can help them mitigate. This will enable the voluntary transition towards LGMS more realistically. Barriers will be analyzed and validated with the help of two-way assessment approach. This research will contribute to the scientific literature by providing a validated list of barriers and few high impact barriers which will provide the ground for policy makers in industry and government to frame policies which are more implementable.
