In order to keep up with the uncertainties on order requirement, the component suppliers need to continuously innovate their business practice to be more efficient and cheaper than competitors. Kanban is a proven lean tool for a pull production system that controls the flow of material between various workstations by using a signal or travelling card methods. As the supply chain industry has entered the new era of Industry 4.0, the concept of signalling system has been restructured along with new technologies given the advantages ofthe Internet of Things (IoT) . This study aims to develop a concept for electronic Kanban (e-Kanban) to speed up the information and data transfer for production planning and scheduling between companies by using Hybrid e-Kanban Production Systems. The model applies an effective tool of Microsoft Excel combined with cloud database using Microsoft OneDrive. This data sharing on production planning and scheduling can reduce preparation and delivery time for the product. The supplier than can view customer’s production data in real-time and respond to any changes to minimize their inventory, to avoid overproduction and wastage. The traditional travelling card method had some issues on the missing card, recording and documentation. However, the e-Kanban ensures the production database is recorded and documented with the necessary production details at real-time. The e-Kanban addresses various industrial challenges including customer satisfaction, communication, and innovation. The author demonstrates the application in a shared database. Furthermore, by implementing an e-Kanban cloud database design, it improves production efficiency, reduces material cost and labour usage. This paper discussed the potential benefits contributed by e-Kanban for cost-efficient operations.  \nKeywords: Lean, E-Kanban, Industry 4.0, Supply chain, Flowline.  \n1.Introduction  \nIn recent era the most of the manufacturing companies attracted to world-class initiatives to develop and create themselves to recognize in competitive in market, However, lean tools are becoming a key factor to follow the overall strategic planning in manufacturing to eliminate the of wastes as “Muda”. The “Muda” Japanese word meaning“waste” it is key concept in lean process thinking such as Toyota Production System (TPS) .  \nThe lean manufacturing defines as the values of the product or service from a consumer point of view. Lean manufacturing emphasis that the non-value-added activities or wastes does not add any value for the customers. It is  \nan important factor to deploy a resilient and consistent strategic plan for better understand and implementation of a lean model. In such circumstances, a lean model will utilize the hybrid e-Kanban tools to maintain the flow of material using a signalling card consists of parts, inventory materials to balance the planning and scheduling in the production and operation management in the automotive industry. According to lean philosophy, the lean evolution was practiced by Henry Ford, later in Japan by Taiichi Ohno and Shigeo Shingo in the development of the well-known Toyota Production System (TPS) . Lean discipline works in every facet of the value stream by eliminating waste in order to reduce cost, generate capital, bring in more sales, and remain","cbCaii1Nx6CJQhbY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaii1Nx6CJQhbY","pdf",1012510,"English","# 1.
