Structural Modelling and Analysis of Organizational Change During Lean Development Implementation

The implementation of Lean Development (LD) can be enhanced by investigating its use in pilot projects. The underlying change processes need to be analyzed in detail to derive appropriate schemes. This paper explores how methods of structural modeling and analysis can be used to gain better insight into the complex procedures during LD transformation. As a first step, relevant elements and relations for such change models were defined. The new procedure will be applied to three implementation processes in industry, with an aim to collect evidence identifying important success factors.     «
