The aim of this bachelor thesis is to improve specific processes in the company KOVACO Electric a.s. Specifically, it is about eliminating unnecessary activities of the production process of the skid steer loader and then increasing production by changing the layout of the workplace. The theoretical part describes the basics of improving production processes and methods of lean manufacturing and Six Sigma. In the practical part, the DMAIC cycle was used and within its individual steps, the 5S and Kanban tools were used. The process mapping with the flowchart tool was used to better understand the problem in the production process. The 5 WHY method determined the cause of the redundant activities. The theoretical contribution of the work is reflected in the use of lean manufacturing methods in the practice of small production. The proposed improvement was introduced into the company's production process, thus achieving higher production and eliminating unnecessary activities.
