Research On The Improvement Of Lean Cost Management In Iron And Steel Enterprises

Iron and steel manufacturing industry is an important economic pillar industry in China,which plays a key role in China's economic growth.However,with the impact of the international financial crisis,the deepening of supply side structural reform,the continuous strengthening of regulation and environmental protection policies of downstream iron and steel industries such as real estate,the survival of China's iron and steel industry is becoming more and more difficult,and its profitability is declining,even since 2015 Large area loss.At this time,the growth of short-term profits by increasing output has been unable to gain competitive advantage.If steel enterprises want to survive in the fierce market competition,they must start from their own cost control and internal management.The application of lean cost management in the iron and steel industry undoubtedly brings a glimmer of hope and a thought to the iron and steel enterprises at this time.Lean cost management is the premise of creating value for customers.It covers lean procurement,lean design,lean logistics,lean production and lean service,aiming to achieve the minimum supply chain cost.In this paper,through the combination of literature research and case study,taking B iron and Steel Group as an example,the implementation process and results of lean cost management in B iron and Steel Group are studied in depth,and the existing problems are analyzed,such as: high fuel purchase cost,large inventory pressure,poor production cost improvement,high external logistics cost and low lean production awareness of employees And so on.According to the above problems,analyze the causes one by one and put forward corresponding improvement countermeasures and suggestions.I hope it can help our steel industry to deal with the increasingly fierce market competition.
