Teoría de restricciones para el mejoramiento de la capacidad de producción en la empresa Edy Sánchez Sport

Abstract

This research project deals with the development of the Theory of Restrictions for the improvement of the productive capacity within the textile company Edy Sánchez Sport, by identifying the operational problems of the organization through a time study and thus being able to apply the DBR algorithm to achieve the mentioned improvement. In the first place, work will be carried out jointly with the company that will provide the corresponding information on the inventories and sales records of the products offered in the sports line, and in this way determine the current situation of the textile company Edy Sánchez Sport. Subsequently, with the help of the sales history, the ABC analysis is carried out, where 24 products represent 80% of the total sales in the company and the product with the highest demand corresponds to the size 36 sports sweater of the Santo Domingo Educational Unit. Guzman. Next, the description of the existing machinery within the production process will be carried out and then the process survey (cutting, preparation, packaging) will be carried out by means of the flowchart and the different activities that intervene in the production areas are described. Next, a time study is carried out for each production process based on General Electric's criteria and, based on the data obtained, the analytical flow chart is drawn up. Then we proceed with the application of the DBR algorithm derived from TOC. Through the simulation in FlexSim, an improvement percentage of 86.48% is achieved within the cutting process, increasing the production capacity to 109.26 units per hour, while in the manufacturing process the improvement is 58.29% and in the packaging no improvement was obtained. In the current and proposed process, the effective transfer rate is $9.00 and operating expenses are reduced from $4.15 to $3.94 per unit, or a 5.03% reduction per unit. product, which is verified in the financial indicator, where the net profit of the process increased by 4.30% per product with the proposed model.
