Lean chain supply

V zaključni nalogi je opisano, kako se je oskrbovalna veriga razvijala skozi čas in se s tem izboljševala. Poudarek je na uvajanju novodobne vitke oskrbovalne verige. V teoretičnem delu so opisane različne vrste oskrbovalnih verig, njihov razvoj skozi zgodovino ter uporaba vitkih metod in njihov pomen. Namen zaključne naloge je ugotoviti prednosti in slabosti vitke oskrbovalne verige v primerjavi s klasično oskrbovalno verigo. Obravnavane so tudi metode vitkosti, ki v današnjem času igrajo pomembno vlogo v vseh procesih proizvodnje, tudi v oskrbi. V eksperimentalnem delu je obravnavan primer vitke oskrbovalne verige v podjetju za proizvodnjo avtomobilov s prikazom uporabe metod vitkosti na konkretnem primeru. Prikazani so rezultati izvedbe ankete v slovenskih podjetjih na temo učinkovitosti oskrbovalnih verig in uvajanja vitkosti v oskrbovalne verige. Na koncu je predstavljena tudi primerjava rezultatov v slovenskih podjetjih in velikih svetovnih koncernov na področju oskrbovalne verige in uporabe metod vitkosti.This paper describes how the supply chain has developed and improved through time. It focuses on the introduction of the modern-day lean supply chain. The theoretical part describes different types of supply chains, their development through history as well as the use of lean methodology and its importance. The aim of the paper is to determine advantages and disadvantages of a lean supply chain compared to the classic supply chain. It discusses lean methodology, which plays an important role in all manufacturing processes and in the field of supply as well. The empirical part discusses an example of a lean supply chain in a car manufacturing company, demonstrating the use of lean methodology on a practical example. It presents the results of a survey conducted in Slovenian companies about the effectiveness of supply chains and the introduction of lean methodology into supply chains. At the end, the results acquired from Slovenian companies and a large worldwide group about supply chains and the use of lean methodology are presented
