Plan de mejora en el área productiva de la chiflería NA-PAL de acuerdo a la metodología 5s.

Abstract

The "NA-PAL" chiflería faces significant challenges in operational efficiency and product quality due to a lack of organization in the production area. The absence of a structured methodology has led to inefficient processes, disorder, and difficulties in meeting market quality standards. This problem is also reflected in workplace safety, waste generation, and a lack of organizational discipline. The primary objective of the research is to propose improvements through the implementation of the 5S methodology in "NA-PAL" chiflería. A mixed approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, is employed. Information is gathered through theoretical review, direct observation, surveys, and interviews with key employees. The methodological framework is based on an inductive-deductive approach, analyzing from the general to the specific. The study population includes the 13 production area employees, and surveys and direct observation will be used to collect specific data on the implementation of the 5S methodology. In preliminary conclusions, the detailed analysis of processes and the diagnosis of deficiencies have provided a solid foundation for developing a strategic improvement plan based on the 5S methodology. It is expected that these actions will not only enhance operational efficiency and product quality but also strengthen the competitiveness of "NA-PAL" chiflería in the local market. This approach not only addresses identified issues but could also serve as a reference for similar initiatives in other business contexts
