Lean Management a Co-occurrence Analysis by Vanessa Rodríguez Cornejo, Ángel Cervera Paz

“…From this database, the references were exported and subsequently processed using the Bibliometrix software, which allows for both an analysis of indexes and the number of articles, which showed us that it was not until 2012 that a progressive publication of works on the subject begins, of productivity by country, with the USA appearing as the country with the greatest number of publications and the greatest number of citations on the topic analyzed, and of authors and journals with the greatest publications, as well as a co-occurrence analysis, which shows us the keywords most used by the authors and the thematic areas where they are most published, the results of which yielded five clusters or groups of keywords led by the terms Lean Management, Lean, Industry 4.0, Value Stream Map and Six Sigma.…”
