Achievements of the world auto industry leaders in lean improvements that ensure adoption of lean thinking and lean culture are represented. The feasibility of the introduction of company management on the principles of lean is proved taking into account peculiarities of the national economy through the prism of public-private partnership: public institutions, social organizations, top management of companies and stakeholders (primarily suppliers and customers). It was discovered that search for ways to overcome the external imbalances contributes to the development of partnerships at different levels: regional, national, supranational and global. The conclusion is made that the state support is crucial for the dissemination of the concept of lean production.
