Item type:Ítem, Estandarización de los procesos productivos de la empresa Consutex con enfoque en economía circular(Universidad Técnica de Ambato.

Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial.The objective of this research was to standardize the production processes of the textile company CONSUTEX under a circular economy approach, with the aim of optimizing resource use, reducing waste, and strengthening operational sustainability. The study was conducted using a mixed-methods methodology, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches, supported by bibliographic-documentary and field research. The documentary research made it possible to compile relevant technical and conceptual information on circular economy, prioritizing academic sources such as books, scientific articles, theses, and studies validated by experts in the field. In parallel, field research was carried out in the production area of the company CONSUTEX, focusing on its highest-demand product, the MINBOLL boxer. Data collection was conducted through direct observation of the production process, the use of record sheets, and time studies, which enabled the calculation of standard times for each operation. The results showed that the sewing area represents the main bottleneck in the system, with a standard time of 187.48 seconds per unit and an approximate production capacity of 154 garments per day. In addition, several sources of waste were identified, mainly related to outsourced cutting control, inefficient use of materials, stitch testing, sewing defects, and rework processes. Based on this diagnosis, circular economy criteria applicable to the textile sector were established, aimed at preserving natural capital, optimizing resources, and valorizing waste. These criteria supported the development of a Procedures Manual that contributes to process standardization, operational efficiency, and long-term sustainability of the production system.
