Abstract

Cultural and Creative industry (CCI) is a wide sector with different specializations and application areas. It refers to the creation and distribution of services or product of a cultural or artistic nature. The study investigates the lean thinking methodology application to the management of the production processes in the cultural and creative industries (CCIs) sector for realizing live performance. Applying a lean methodology to this processes costs and production times can be reduced and the overall performance increase. To address this need, a theoretical processes’ framework is proposed for process re-engineering and better allocation of human and physical resources. This result is reached by the interaction between researchers with many years of experience in business process and the expertise of four main cultural operators of the Apulia region.
