Maximum Profit

This article examines the implementation of continuous improvement patterns and the various continuous improvement (CI) models used in an organization. Despite the size of an organization, the goal is to achieve the maximum profit by pursuing continuous improvement. There are certain models and theories used in organizations for this reason, which include total quality management, business process re-engineering, Six Sigma, and Lean manufacturing methodology. These models are not only concerned with customer retention and profit maximization, but they are also equally effective for the employee's wellbeing. Different methodologies used in continuous improvement processes will help industrial engineers simplify complex tasks by applying CI tools to different situations. However, the key is to understand what tools and models are appropriate for each application.

Total Productive Maintenance

Programas de melhoria como o Lean Manufacturing, Total Quality Management, Seis Sigma (SS), Lean Seis Sigma (LSS) e Total Productive Maintenance, focam a melhoria de processos e, em diferentes níveis, são fundamentados no Pensamento Estatístico (PE) e em Técnicas Estatísticas (TE). Este artigo apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa survey com 243 empresas industriais do Estado de São Paulo, com objetivo de analisar o uso do PE e de TE em empresas que adotam esses programas e os efeitos percebidos no desempenho operacional com esse uso. Foi Identificado um grupo de empresas consideradas mais avançadas, composto por 17% da amostra, nas quais o uso do PE e TE, no controle e melhoria de processos, é mais presente e com melhores resultados operacionais e benefícios percebidos. O uso de Programas SS e LSS, há mais de 5 anos, contribuiu para que essas empresas incorporassem mais intensamente os princípios do PE e as TE. Mas, na amostra total, apesar da ampla difusão de programas de melhoria que fazem uso de princípios e técnicas estatísticas, ainda são poucas as empresas em que esse uso estaria consolidado.

En toda empresa manufacturera es imprescindible lograr un proceso de producción óptimo que garantice el éxito y el alcance de los objetivos y metas propuestas. Por consiguiente, se tiene que uno de los problemas más importantes que debe enfrentar la dirección y los encargados de producción, es la introducción de herramientas que permitan la mejora de los procesos productivos, las cuales deben ser implementadas en la medida adecuada para llevar a cabo su aplicación de manera correcta, para poder solventar las situaciones particulares donde sea necesario tomar medidas preventivas. En el presente trabajo se realiza un análisis de una metodología adecuada de implementación de las herramientas de Lean Manufacturing, que permita la ejecución de las mismas para mejorar los procesos productivos y eliminar los desperdicios o defectos de producción. Para cumplir con dicho objetivo, se ha realizado un análisis comparativo entre las metodologías de Total Quality Management, Lean Manufacturing y Six Sigma. Mediante una lluvia de ideas realizada con expertos y personal involucrado en diferentes empresas manufactureras de la ciudad de Lima, se pudo observar que la calificación más alta obtenida en la evaluación corresponde a la metodología Lean Manufacturing, de acuerdo a los criterios establecidos para dicha evaluación.

Abstract The article presents the main aspects which require attention when optimizing and improving the manufacturing process, i.e.: the human resources aspect, the technical aspect and the organizational aspect. Concepts such as the Total Quality Management, Six Sigma or Lean Manufacturing claim that work improvement should be a continuous process. The foundation for implementing the improvement of processes, regardless of the concept, are well-organized and orderly workplaces as well as standardization, which can be achieved thanks to the Japanese 5S method.
