In this case study based paper, the fuzzy TOPSIS is used to assess the current leanness level of three smallmanufacturing organizations and to generate the order of priority of various issues that the organistion should considerfor the successful implemetation of the lean manufactruing strategies. The basic motivation behind this case study is toreduce the number of unsuccessful lean implementations as there are a few success stories of lean implementationreported. The major reasons behind the failure of successful implementation are thelackof the properassessment of thecurrent leanness of organizations and their inability to decide the priority areas from where lean implementation shouldstart. This paper helps to fill these gaps.
