Plan de mejora en el área de producción de la fábrica El Café C.A

Abstract

Currently, in many companies, some problems have been detected that do not allow the correct development of the various activities to which the company is dedicated. All of this influences the service that is being provided, which is why through this research it has been possible to detect the shortcomings and Likewise, improving work performance based on that, the implementation of the 5S methodology is proposed in the production area of the company EL CAFÉ C.A, which will allow the elimination of unnecessary elements, in addition to maintaining an organized and clean area. To obtain the corresponding information, a mixed type study was carried out, where survey techniques, check lists and direct observation methods were implemented, which evaluated a total of 16 workers, which were key to determining the solution to the problem raised. The results of this showed that said company does not fully comply with each of the stages of the 5S methodology, where a weighting below 13% was obtained with a medium-low index, which is less than 20% maximum rating, yielding that the main problems are in the maintain and standardize stages, which is why a standardized operating procedure plan, an improved plant design and a training plan for workers were proposed, as for workers, not all of them have all of them. The safety teams in the workplace are also unaware of the 5S methodology, which implementing it in the productive area is equivalent to a cost of $3,277.00 dollars
