Nas últimas décadas, tem se evidenciado a importância das pequenas e médias empresas tanto a nível micro como macroeconômico.
Como contributo para esta melhoria, o conceito e metodologia de produção que minimiza os desperdícios, conhecido também como Lean surge como uma mais-valia para estas organizações. Neste sentido, esta dissertação se propõe a investigar as principais dificuldades que as empresas de pequeno porte enfrentam ao implementar o Lean, recorrendo à literatura disponível.
Adicionalmente, para responder aos objetivos propostos, a investigação foi realizada em 4 fases. A primeira consistiu na utilização do software VOSviewer, que foi utilizado para a construção e visualização de redes bibliométricas, nomeadamente a realização de dois tipos de análises: Co-autoria e Ocorrência de palavras. A segunda e a terceira fase, como base nos artigos selecionados, procuraram identificar, respectivamente, as principais barreiras enfrentadas e as ferramentas utilizadas. Por fim, a última fase teve com principal foco a realização de um questionário, que objetivou compreender o entendimento das PMEs quanto ao Lean e oportunidades que estas podem vir a ter.
O resultado das fases descritas anteriormente, possibilitou analisar como a gestão de projetos pode contribuir para minimizar tais dificuldades, como também propor um conjunto de boas práticas para auxiliar as PMEs na Implementação do Lean.
In recent decades, the impact of small and medium-sized companies has become evident, both at the micro and macroeconomic levels. However, the search for knowledge and improvement in operational processes has been a necessity for these companies, this can be justified due to the high competitiveness between them. As a contribution to this improvement, the concepts and methodologies of production without waste, also known as Lean, appear as an added value for these organizations. Thus, this dissertation proposes to investigate the main difficulties that small and medium companies face when implementing Lean using a survey of case studies available in the literature. Additionally, the investigation was carried out in 4 steps to answer the proposed objectives. The first step consisted of using the VOSviewer software tool to construct and visualize bibliometric networks, with two types of analysis being performed: Co-authorship and Occurrence of words. The second and third sought to identify, respectively the main barriers and tools of a selected sample. And finally, the last step was conducted by carrying out a survey to understand SMEs' understanding of Lean and the opportunities they may have with Lean Implementation. Therefore, with the results obtained, an analysis was conducted of how Project Management can contribute to minimizing such difficulties and propose a set of good practices based on Project Management to assist SMEs in Lean Implementation.
