Processes are very fast in contemporary dynamic, turbulent and continually changing world. Systems supporting these processes become more and more complicated and are in mutual interaction. Design of high performance workplaces becomes more and more important for achieving competitiveness. In the current article workplace capability, formed by capability of technological resources and human resources, as well as lean manufacturing principles are analysed with an aim to design high performance workplaces.
