Integración de las herramientas Lean manufacturing con el sistema de gestión de calidad ISO 9001 en la industria cosmética

Abstract

Abstract: This paper presents a qualitative and documentary study whose objective is to propose a theoretical model for integrating Lean Manufacturing tools into the requirements of ISO 9001, particularly in the cosmetics industry. Based on a systematic analysis of technical standards, scientific articles, textbooks, and case studies, the conceptual alignment between Lean principles and the process-based approach enshrined in ISO 9001 continuous improvement, risk-based thinking, and customer focus is examined. The study's main contribution lies in presenting these alignments in comparative tables and a model based on the PDCA cycle (Plan, Do, Check, Act). This model demonstrates how individual Lean tools can be integrated to support the various requirements of a quality management system. The proposal provides a theoretical basis to guide future empirical research and to help cosmetics companies strengthen their management through the systematic integration of Lean and ISO 9001.
