The fourth industrial revolution initiates a change in the strategic guidelines of industrial enterprises. The rapid trend towards a wide variety of finished products with a short development and production time has led to a number of problems for enterprises with inventory, overhead and efficiency. The imperative of implementing lean production is becoming irrelevant due to new challenges in the external environment and is giving way to more competitive paradigms. Now the modern production concept should be focused not only on the cost and quality of goods, but also on the speed of response and flexibility. Quick response manufacturing (QRM) is one of them, which is a corporate strategy to reduce time of execution of the order at the industrial enterprise. And it is an extremely new and unfamiliar management paradigm in Russia. The purpose of this study is to analyze quick response manufacturing and to relate it to the current state of the Russian industrial development. Theoretical and practical aspects of this concept are given. The examples of the quick response manufacturing implementation in the Russian industrial sector are presented. Summarizing, QRM is offered as a promising manufacturing paradigm for Russian industry.
