Lean project management combines principles from lean manufacturing with agile project management, to focus on delivering more value with less waste.

First, as an outcome of globalization and the proliferation of multinational companies, joint ventures, strategic alliances and business partnerships, significant success factors were identified, complementing the earlier " Just-In-Time ", Lean Manufacturing and Agile manufacturing practices.

This effort, known as " Lean production " will significantly reduce working capital tied up in inventory and reduce manufacturing costs ( See the Toyota Production System ).

Lean manufacturing, lean enterprise, or lean production, often simply, " Lean ," is a production practice that considers the expenditure of resources for any goal other than the creation of value for the end customer to be wasteful, and thus a target for elimination.

Lean manufacturing is a management philosophy derived mostly from the Toyota Production System ( TPS ) ( hence the term Toyotism is also prevalent ) and identified as " Lean " only in the 1990s.

Lean manufacturing is a variation on the theme of efficiency based on optimizing flow ; it is a present-day instance of the recurring theme in human history toward increasing efficiency, decreasing waste, and using empirical methods to decide what matters, rather than uncritically accepting pre-existing ideas.

Lean manufacturing is often seen as a more refined version of earlier efficiency efforts, building upon the work of earlier leaders such as Taylor or Ford, and learning from their mistakes.

Lean principles come from the Japanese manufacturing industry.

Lean manufacturing builds on their experiences, including learning from their mistakes.

Lean accounting is primarily used within lean manufacturing.

Process improvement methodologies such as Lean manufacturing and Six Sigma appear to align well with the BPM and BPA view of the world, as they constantly look for incremental opportunities to make processes more efficient and reduce defects, however these methodologies can also be used downstream of a BPM deployment.

Lean manufacturing is based on the concept that production should be drive by the actual customer demands and requirements.

Agile manufacturing is seen as the next step after Lean manufacturing in the evolution of production methodology.

Lean manufacturing is helping different companies to improve production.
