Through a review of the proceedings of the National Meeting of Production Engineering (NMPE) over the past 10 years, this article aims to identify the profile of Brazilian research regarding methods that assess the implementation of Lean Manufacturing (LM), proposing a classification for the methods analyzed. We identified 28 articles that specifically address the assessment of the implementation of LM, which accounts for 16 evaluation methods because some methods have been found in more than one article. The results show that the type of research most widely used is the case study. Lean practices more addressed are: Quality Tools, Multifunctional Teams, Quick-Changeover Techniques, Continuous Improvement and Visual Control. The presence of the researcher was found more than half of the studies analyzed. Less than half showed the full data collection instrument. Moreover most of the papers evaluate the LM industry, specifically on the shop floor. This article will be useful both to researchers and to professionals in Production Engineering interested in evaluating the progress of LM implementation, because it shows the profile of all the methods presented in NMIE, which reflects the progress in the Brazilian research on the subject.
