Identificación y oportunidades de mejora de las actividades de trazabilidad y BPM (Buenas Prácticas De Manufactura).

Abstract

Through the implementation of specific laboratory tests, it was possible to analyze the traceability parameters of green and roasted coffee beans; this in order to ensure a quality control of the raw material and finished product within the company INVERSIONES GALAVIS S.A.S. Subsequently, the use of good manufacturing practices (BPM) was followed up; so in this way it was possible to carry out the proper identification, documentation, measurement, control of each operation and / or process in the company's facilities. Finally, a technical evaluation was carried out from the perspective of the production and quality control area, where a possible alternative for the weighing process of the roasted grain was found, which consisted of applying an optimal bibliographic search, for the conceptualization and awareness of the importance of changing this manual process to partial or complete automation; where it was properly sought that the company increase its production and therefore a better distribution of operating personnel within the plant itself. Theoretically, it would be possible to eliminate a large part of the human effort and the operating times in each pot of toasted grain.
