Abstract: Lean manufacturing focuses on maximizing value while minimizing waste, emphasizing continuous improvement in production processes. A critical component of lean is the reduction of cycle times, which directly impacts productivity, throughput, and cost efficiency. This paper examines how efficient controls engineering can play a pivotal role in reducing cycle times. By integrating advanced control systems, real-time monitoring, and predictive analytics, manufacturers can streamline workflows, eliminate bottlenecks, and enhance decision-making. Case studies from various industries are presented to illustrate the practical implementation of lean principles through controls engineering. The paper concludes by discussing future trends and strategies for aligning controls engineering with lean methodologies to achieve sustainable operational excellence.
