Resumen:
Lean manufacturing (LM) emerged through Toyota Production System with the purpose of
providing more efficiency to industrial processes, as well as managing people through a
working philosophy interconnected with the industry profile. Thus, for the LM it is necessary
to propose discipline in the management of activities, either in the metric directed to
infrastructure and machinery, or the philosophy that is intended to the company's culture and
change in organizational habits. For such perspective, the contributions submitted by the LM
to the industries are considered promising for procedures linked to the development of
sustainability dimensions for production activities; with training aimed at producing more with
less, the LM becomes a great potential alternative for an economic and environmental
management model, as it is structured with tools which provide the need for recognition.
Therefore, this study aims to analyze how lean manufacturing Management can contribute to
the development of industry sustainability, from the perspective of clothing companies in Santa
Cruz do Capibaribe/PE, in the process of eliminating the leading wasting in the manufacturing
processes. Thus, this study was divided into three stages, called chapters: the first chapter, a
bibliometric analysis was developed on the main scientific research and its characteristics
(2011-2021). Sequently, chapter 02 is structured where a continuously case of study is set of
03 (three) industries that work with LM to analyze in loco the activities done to eliminate the
09 wastes of lean manufacturing, and the technologies implemented to validate relationships to
sustainability. Finally, the development of field research that results in interviews is structured
in chapter 03, being directed to seek to identify the main changes that occurred with the tools
of the current management model, and analyze the implementation of LM through the strategic,
tactical levels and operational aspects of the sample under study.
