The sports goods manufacturing industry in India has gained phenomenal growth over the past five decades and now holds a prominent place in the Indian economy by providing massive employment and export revenue to the country. To enhance the quality and efficiency of production the industry is trying to implement new and efficient techniques in its manufacturing operations. Cellular manufacturing is a solution to the batch manufacturing process; hence reducing the lead-time with higher machine utilization, improved product quality, and enhanced customer satisfaction. In this work an attempt has been made to study the current status, enablers, and barriers in the implementation of cellular manufacturing principles in the sports industry-specific to Meerut and nearby regions. An ISM based structural modeling and MICMAC analysis of implementation enablers, and barriers of cellular manufacturing practices in sports industry in Meerut are also presented. Management vision and Government support are the major driving enablers while ‘Limited technological support, infrastructure and role model industry’, and ‘Lack of management support’ are among the major barriers. The implementation barriers are also arranged into five categories based on the factors related to their removal. The practical implications and future scope of the study are also proposed.

在过去的五十年中，印度的体育用品制造业获得了惊人的增长，现在通过为印度提供大量就业和出口收入，在印度经济中占有重要地位。为了提高生产的质量和效率，该行业正在尝试在其制造操作中实施新的高效技术。蜂窝制造是批量制造过程的一种解决方案。因此，通过提高机器利用率，改善产品质量并提高客户满意度，可以缩短交货时间。在这项工作中，已经尝试研究在针对Meerut和附近地区的体育产业中实施蜂窝制造原理的现状，推动因素和障碍。还介绍了基于ISM的结构模型和实现支持者的MICMAC分析，以及Meerut体育产业中蜂窝制造实践的障碍。管理愿景和政府支持是主要推动因素，而“有限的技术支持，基础架构和榜样行业”以及“缺乏管理支持”是主要障碍。根据与消除障碍相关的因素，实施障碍也分为五类。还提出了研究的实际意义和未来范围。和“缺乏管理支持”是主要障碍。根据与消除障碍相关的因素，实施障碍也分为五类。还提出了研究的实际意义和未来范围。和“缺乏管理支持”是主要障碍。根据与消除障碍相关的因素，实施障碍也分为五类。还提出了研究的实际意义和未来范围。
