    The objective of this study is to propose Lean Manufacturing tools to optimize the fresh cheese production process at the microenterprise “Productos Lácteos Marlen.” The study was prompted by the existence of operational waste that affects the performance of the production system, particularly unnecessary movements, unproductive transport, activities with no added value, and imbalances in the distribution of work; which limit the microenterprise’s efficiency and productivity. The process diagnosis was carried out using tools such as Value Stream Mapping (VSM), the analytical diagram, time and motion studies, and production capacity analysis, which allowed for the identification of the main problems within the production chain. On this basis, improvement opportunities were identified aimed at optimizing the workflow, reducing downtime, and improving the use of operational resources. Based on the results obtained, Lean Manufacturing tools such as 5S, standardized work, and visual control were selected, enabling the formulation of proposals focused on the organization of workspaces, the elimination of unnecessary activities, the standardization of procedures, and the strengthening of control. The proposed approach optimized the organization and continuity of the production process, reducing unnecessary activities and improving the utilization of operational resources. Furthermore, the results show that the implementation of Lean Manufacturing tools enhances efficiency, quality, and continuous improvement in the production of fresh cheese.
