If you want to have the agile advantage then you need to have a very fast supply of all the raw materials you need in your plant. This will speed up the process of manufacturing thus giving you an competitive advantage over others. |

It all depends on what kind of product the firm is manufacturing. If it is a high volume, low cost product which requires effieciency, lean would be the answer.
However, if the product is low volume, high cost which requires responsiveness, the answer is agile. The are couple of ways to go agile, for starters, by identifying the decoupling point in the supply chain. second to identify the time vs cost required to market a product and so on. Third, postponement, standardisation, modularisation and interchangibility.
Concurrency and Virtual engineering can be implemented to both type of products. however, fast supply deliveries can be reserved for agile systems alone as cost to deliver ought to be significantly less than profits earned
