... and consequently the production, lean tools and methods known from repetitive production usually do not fit (Romero and Chávez, 2011). They require different manufacturing approaches and optimization methods for so-called project manufacturing or engineer-to-order (ETO) manufacturing (Yang, 2013). Major problems...
