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%.

Lean manufacturing tools do not consider environmental and societal benefits. The conventional value stream mapping (VSM) methodology examines the economics of a manufacturing line, most of which are in regards to time (cycle time, lead time, change-out time, etc.). Incorporating the capability to capture environmental and societal performance visually through VSMs will increase its usefulness as a tool that can be used to assess manufacturing operations from a sustainability perspective. A number of studies have addressed the extension of VSM to incorporate additional criteria. A vast majority of these efforts have focused on adding energy-related metrics to VSMs, while several other studies refer to ‘sustainable’ VSM by including environmental performance in conventional VSMs. This research has developed a method for VSM integrated with environment metric and social metric for ensuring sustainable manufacture. The proposed technique is capable of visualizing and evaluating manufacturing process performance from sustainability view point. The capability of proposed technique has been tested by an application study on furniture company. The study provides insights to practitioners to visualize process performance in economic, environment and social metric.

ABSTRACT:The Tangerang Customs and Excise Supervision and Service Office (KPPBC Tangerang) has initiated the implementation of the lean management concept as an effort to improve several business processes, including the archive business process. Before this implementation, they held a lean management training from an external consultant at KPPBC Tangerang in 2018. This study analyzes how to implement lean government in the archive business process of KPPBC Tangerang and how its impact. This research methodology uses a qualitative approach, based on a case study research. The results of the study concluded that lean management is effectively applied to business processes in the supporting unit, the archive business process.Keywords: Customs, Lean Management, 5S, Value Stream Mapping, Form A3ABSTRAK:Kantor Pengawasan dan Pelayanan Bea dan Cukai Tangerang (KPPBC Tangerang) telah melakukan inisitif penerapan konsep lean management sebagai upaya penyempurnaan pada beberapa proses bisnis.
