Abstract:

The lean management technique is one of the recent trends in the management system. Where the lean management is stated as the system increases the customer value and reduces the wastage process in an industry or in an organization. In this paper the lean management describes about the in the field of power plant engineering. The power plant system is one of the necessary needs to the environment for the production of power sources such as electricity. This approach is to reduce the wastage involved in the plant and increase the production activity in an efficient manner

Keywords:

Lean Management, Power Plant, Electricity, Wastage Reducing.
