knowledge management processes in its dimensions (knowledge acquisition, knowledge storage, knowledge transfer
and knowledge application) and the lean production system that is represented by the dimensions (5S work site
organization, continuous improvement, comprehensive productive maintenance and production on time JIT).
Accordingly, the Ur General Company for the production of electrical and aluminum cables was chosen as a
research community, and in order to achieve the purpose of the research, a hypothetical model was created for the
research that clarifies the nature of the relationship between the research variables. Also, the questionnaire was
designed as a main tool for data collection.
The questionnaire was distributed on the sample of the study(the higher and the middle administrative in the Ur
General company for Production of Cables and Aluminum. (200) questioners and (194) were collected in return.
