Abstract
Lean practices support each other by different weight values, forming a relationship network, which are a directed-weighted lean practices relationship network (referred to as DWLPRN) and a network system. This network system influences the implementation of lean practice. In this study, a system influence model was developed to reveal the framework and degree of network system influence to lean practice. This model need to structure DWLPRN, search on the maximum-weight lean practice tree and calculate relationship difficulty degree. And, the structured approach was created to conduct the system influence model. Practical use was shown in the actual DWLPRN obtained from a manufacturing cell. It provides reliability and effectiveness of this system influence model, which helps the lean production reform.
