The problem experienced by the manufacturing company that produces soap bars is the waste in its production process. The research objective is to reduce waste in the production process flow in terms of distance of displacement of the material nor heap of material of the production process of laundry soap bars so it can increase the productivity. To solve the problem, implementation integration of lean manufacturing and BLOCPLAN algorithm is used. In the early stages, value-added activities and activities that are not value-added is identified through the depiction of value stream mapping, and value-added activities that are not reducible to the application of the principle of 5W and 1H. To get the total minimal distance to move materials, it is necessary to re-layout production facilities with BLOCPAN algorithm. Future state mapping is used to get an idea of the final result, in which all non-value added activities can be reduced, and the shorter lead time obtained in the production process. With the application of those two methods, process cycle efficiency is increased 33.62% resulting in increased productivity of the company amounted to 204 packs of soap bars each day.

Productivity is an important parameter for all small and medium scale manufacturing industries. Lean manufacturing emerged as production strategy capable of increasing productivity by identifying and eliminating non value added activities. This article deals with productivity improvement in a pre-assembly line of gearbox manufacturing company with a case study using lean concepts like process flow chart, process Gantt chart and time study. This paper illustrates using a case study on how a value stream mapping has to be carried out in a planet carrier pre-assembly line. Value stream mapping and work standardization are the key tools used in lean manufacturing and lean transformation. It makes the process smoother, helps in reduction of lead time and ultimately increasing the productivity. From the observed results it was found that, the productivity has been increased from 7 pieces to 10 pieces in the first step assembly when the proposed VSM was implemented. The second step processing time was reduced by the execution of proposed value stream mapping with TAKT time of 126 minutes and 165 minutes of processing time for demand of 10 pieces were achieved and the overall processing time has been reduced by about 24%.

Currently the industry is trying to improve its competitiveness. This makes the manufacturingindustry needs to adapt the Lean-Kaizen concept. Lean-Kaizen means eliminating waste through small improvements made on an ongoing basis. This research takes a case study at PT Inoac Poltechno Indonesia, which is engaged in foam production. The current production target is only 56% of the planned target. Besides that, there are found many defective products and activities that have no added value. Furthermore, a map of the current condition is made to find waste and know the kaizen that will be carried out. Furthermore, a future map was developed with work standardization and Value Stream Mapping to determine activities that have no added value. Calculation of Waste Assessment Model (WAM), shows the biggest waste is defect (26.73%), inventory (15.79%), and waiting (13.35%). This study found that by adding trolley, adding operators, making SOPs, scheduling engine maintenance would make non-value added (NVA) activities decrease from 29.95% to 20.5%. Process Cycle Efficiency increased from 22.31% to 28.25% (thus fulfilling international PCE requirements for the manufacturing industry). Keyword : Lean-Kaizen, productivity, waste

For many years, productivity improvement through value stream mapping and simulation has been studied in manufacturing industry where the flow of materials is visible and the work can be standardized. In recent years, the service industry has become a new arena for lean operations. Within the service industry, client-based companies have distinct challenges in streamlining their process, as it may not be feasible to standardize the needs of different clients. This thesis focuses on a case from a client-based company in the area of graphic communications and brand point management services. The thesis examines the application of lean principles towards a set of subjective processes and provides directions for improving productivity. Some lean methods utilized in the study include creating process flows, conducting operator interviews to back-up the process flow, collecting data such as processing time and creating a detailed values stream map of the retail packaging process in order to analyze any necessary areas of improvement. Value stream mapping has been used to identify the areas where the non-value-added tasks can be reduced, and simulation models have been used to imitate and predict the company's different scenarios in dealing with bottlenecks, different kinds of wastes, and to assess potential areas for improvements. The analysis of results indicates that it is necessary to have two different streams of the processes; one for a team-based job and another one for a non-team-based job. The proper touch points from each department have been found and value-added and non-value added times have been determined in order to create the current-state. Furthermore, future-states have been created with some recommendations kept in mind to validate the time savings. The results have been verified through a simulation analysis.

This study aims to reduce the waste that occurs on each workstation and has an impact on increasing productivity and reducing production costs caused by waste that occurs during production. The data used for this study is quantitative data obtained by direct observation to the relevant departments regarding the problem of identifying waste that occurs — data taken from observations as much as 30 times the collection of data and historical data used from January 2016 to June 2017. By using the value stream mapping method on lean manufacturing, it can be seen that there are five types of waste from the existing seven waste. The five wastes are unnecessary motion, waiting, reject, transportation and in-process processes. From the results of the value stream mapping carried out a reduction in waste on each workstation with a total reduction of waste that occurs at 66.97 tons / year or 18.6% on waste gel and 88.8 tons / year or 19.3% at waste powder and there was a reduction in the changeover process for 45 minutes or 12.16% of the total changeover time before the improvement. Also, there was also an increase in the production process speed of 2 minutes 47 seconds or 4.52% from the lead time of the previous production process, 61 minutes 34 seconds to 58 minutes 47 seconds.
