This Bachelor thesis explores lean production methods used at manufacturing plant of the Gerresheimer company in Horšovský Týn. The company produces inhalers, insulin pens and other plastic products for medical industry. The lean production is one of the modern approaches in production management. It is aimed at increasing in production effeciency and waste minimization. The waste means all activities which do not add any value to the product and rise its costs. The thesis evaluates an activity of the selected company on the basis of specific lean production methods and a long-term analysis of the workplace. It focuses primarily on the 5S Method. Finally, after the detection of the current conditions, austerity measures are suggested to possible improvements of 5S Method. There is also a suggestion how to introduce 5S Method in a small enterprise.

Lean production is the philosophy, which must be accepted by all em-ployees inside every company. It is the way to successful business in the 21st century. This thesis deals with the application of lean production in the selected company. The practical part describes the selected company, its history and manufacturing program. The next part is focused on description of the production center and its production layout. The result of this thesis is creating the product layout plan depending on the material flow and additional proposals for improvement.

The aim of this thesis work is to evaluate the functioning of the already established elements of lean production, analyze production effectiveness before and after the introduction of these elements in the choosen company.

Lean company could be characterized with high effectivity of internal proceses and sustain elimination of waste. Lean company uses several methods, which are aplicated on many proceses along whole value stream of the product. This essay includes most known and used methods such as: just in time method, kaizen improovement philosophy, based on systematic improovement activities iniciated by employees. Also systems of autonomation in production - jidoka, improoved logistic methods and pull-system using kanban, nivelization of the production flow by heijunka method, error proofing systems poka-yoke, systems of organizing office and workplace 5S. All of it summarized in economic results. In analytical part, trying to find out, whether lean systems take effect in services. Using comparison of two real estate agencies, I have find out that lean systems really exists even in services.

My diploma work is focussed on the organisation of materials flow in a selected enterprise. In the frame of the studied enterprise I devoted special attention to the flow of packaging and manufacturing materials demonstrated on the operations of a particular manufacturing hall. Based on the implemented analysis the enterprise management decided to optimise the unsatisfying state of processes in compliance with the principles of lean production. The described re-structuring was aimed at a decrease in the stock of finished products packed in boxes and in an increased efficiency of responds to potential client requirements, further at specification of rules and setting responsibilities in the fields of logistics and manufacturing. The concluding section of the diploma work is focussed on potential improvement measures which could be taken within the studied enterprise.
