Abstract: In this science research explosion century, the competitive economic environment and manufacturers are forced to follow the development and changes to protect their existence with respect of delay, quality and cost challenges, therefore lean manufacturing concepts become part of solution. Contrariwise some manufacturers, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) suffer to implement these concepts. This paper's purposes are to define an advanced model of lean manufacturing system (LMS) based on ISO:9001 version 2015 principles and VDA6.3 version 2016 norm and suggest a maturity model to evaluate the maturity level of LMS which has been confirmed through statistical studies. Nevertheless, few works related to this field makes academic research and industry closer, our work falls within this context through the industrial productivity improvement. This paper also proposes some research perspectives aiming to complete this research axis by enhancing the presented model through other industrial experiments and studies.
