Inventory control is controlling the materials movement to fulfill the requirements. The materials can from the direct and indirect materials. the indirect materials are the materials that cannot be calculated according to the bill of materials. Indirect materials need safety stocks, so the requirements can always be fulfilled, means it need the control and monitoring of their levels. To control the movement of the materials, each department have roles to control and information that need to be shared. PT XYZ is an automotive assembler company, the company need a tool to control the indirect materials inbound and outbound and control its stock. This research is to have the tool that will be a web-based program because to share the information throughout the department of planning, production, and logistics. In developing and implementing the program itself, the RUP methodology is used to guide in doing this research with having four phases and activities that support the research. The result is the program itself have been successful to fulfilled the user requirements. The program shows the real time information for the levels of the materials and also the inbound and outbound of the materials for the user to monitor its levels.
This research is conducted in PT. XYZ Indonesia facility. In addition, PT. XYZ is an inflight catering service provider. The purpose of this research is to solve the company problem that occurred in the dishwashing area, which is unable to meet the flight demand expectation. In order to analyze the problem, this paper is implementing the DMAIC framework methodology. After defining the problem that occurred in the dishwashing area, the data will be gathered, and it will be used for developing a new alternative layout. Furthermore, changing the plant layout process will follow a systematic layout planning procedure, and it will be supported with Tecnomatix simulation to simulate the improvement situation. As a result, new alternative layouts are being proposed to increase productivity in the operational area. Also, to maintain the quality of the operation process, a new standard operating procedure and audit form are being proposed to the company.
Human is the most important aspect in every manual process. When it comes to the manufacturing process, the power of human will affect a huge part of the result. It does not matter how good the raw material is, if the worker cannot do the good job to the material, the product will not be good as well. The same case happens in an automotive company. In their factory plant, most of all activities are done by human. The automatic process can still be counted. These manual processes affect directly to the cycle time in the stations. In this research, the focus of the observation is in a Hang on Part station which is the first station in the assembly line of this automotive factory plant. Since it is the first place to start the assembly process in whole plant, an improvement is important in order to increase the productivity in the assembly line. The improvement is conducted by designing the supporting tools to help the worker in the station optimizing the activity they do, analyzing the product with software to see if there is any mistake by the design, and count the new cycle time by using the supporting tools to see if there is any improvement. It is expected to reduce the cycle time and reduce the worker in the station.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
