Summary/Abstract: The transition to lean production is difficult. Creating and sustaining an organizational culture where learning and continuous improvement are a priority is a challenge. Assa Abloy is a multinational organization that focuses on quality and employee empowerment. In the last few years Assa Abloy Romania drove out activities that do not create value in the eyes of the customer. This article is a continuation of a previous research (Grigore and Badea, 2012) that focused on the same subject and provides other example of successful lean lessons.
