  abstract = {Continuous Improvement (CI) conception requires the introduction of numerous changes of varying degrees of novelty and complexity. In this article, attention has been focused on organisations operating in the production industry that focused on development based on the concept of Continuous Improvement. The article aims to define and classify improvement projects and indicate techniques recommended in their management, and to present the role which they play in implementing the assumptions of continuous improvement in manufacturing companies. The authors have defined that an improvement project is a unique undertaking aimed at achieving the goal of improving the organisation and its processes; it is a sequence of completed and related activities. It is planned in time and has allocated resources necessary for its implementation. Links between project management and the CI concept were discussed, and a classification of improvement projects was presented. In addition, the example presented in the article aims to analyse improvement projects in a production enterprise pursuing the rules of CI and supplementing their characteristics and classification presented in the literature.},
