Lean Manufacturing como estrategia de disminución de costos de producción. Caso Empresa Carnes Frías Cifuentes.

Abstract

This work was carried out under the monograph mode of degree where initially a literature search was done to identify the concepts and advantages of implementing the Lean Manufacturing methodology based on the arguments given by the different authors. For the development, the production system of the company Carnes Frias Cifuentes was approached, analyzing the wastes within the production chain to later visualize which changes have a greater impact on the manufacturing cost of production. Applying the Lean Manufacturing methodologies, it was possible to identify the wastes or squanders that are present within the organization; with the use of these tools (5's, TPM, JIT) the process from the storage of raw materials to the finished product was taken into account. There were identified the wastes that have a direct impact on production costs, making these processes more expensive due to poor management. Once the analysis is done, conclusions and recommendations are presented that can serve the company as a strategy that will allow the decrease of production costs.
