RESUMO

This thesis proposes a generic Lean Production System (LPS) model to the footwear industry. The model takes into account the new paradigm of demand fulfillment, that is, low volumes and high variety of products. The model was elaborated using a literature review and 10 case studies in the footwear industry. Data was colleted by means of interviews, questionnaire and maturity evaluation system containing 13 elements of lean production identified by the literature review. Firms were visited to ensure the feasibility of use of these 13 elements, identifying them as best practices adopted by these companies. In this manner, observing how these elements are used, some reference models were built and they serve as a inicial suggestion to the design of a LPS to the footwear industry. These models contain the observed best practices as well as suggestions of the author in situations where the companies did not use some elements yet. The attribution of grades was done by the author and professional of the firms.
