AB  - The background for this paper is the Lean Shipbuilding R&D program, hosted by the Norwegian Research Council. The following shipyards participate in this program: Aker Yards, Kleven Verft and Ulstein Verft. Together they constitute a significant part (app. 75%) of the total Norwegian shipbuilding capacity. The paper is intended to give readers an essential theoretical support towards a better shipbuilding process. Together with the Lean theory review, current activities and plans for implementation of Lean principles at the participating shipyards are outlined and discussed as well. The paper concludes with a series of recommendations regarding both, theoretical and practical issues leading to further development of the Lean Shipbuilding concept and its application to different shipyards in the Norwegian context.
