PROPUESTA METODOLÓGICA PARA LA REDUCCIÓN DE DESPERDICIOS EN LA EMPRESA “US TECHNOLOGIES”

Abstract

At the moment, the environmental is one of the greater problems than the companies are facing. With this, there is lost competitiveness and growth in his markets. Since, the reduction of the wastes improves the costs and increases the productivity. By such reason, the accomplishment of this thesis is born for the necessity of the company U.S. Technologies in minimizes the costs of the processing sources and generation of the wastes. The goal of this research, was designing a methodology for wastes reduction, with base in the theoretical revision of the methods and tools for the reduction of wastes, with the purpose of minimize the costs of the processing sources and generation of the wastes in the company U.S. Technologies. In the design of the proposal, it was made a theoretical revision and an evaluation of the propose methodologies by Crittenden and Kolaczkowski; Reyes, Sharratt and Arizmendi; Halim and Srinivasan; among others. With the purpose of integrating the characteristic more related to the problematic one of the company. The name of Methodology of Wastes Reduction is based on the Planning, the Analysis, the Evaluation and the Pursuit (MRD-PAES) and their steps are described. The MRD-PAES methodology is evaluated with the purpose of demonstrating that the results in their implementation will be satisfactory. The simulation is used like an alternative tool to validity the methodology proposed. The present process is simulated and a reduction in the wastes of the 2.5% and an increase of the productivity of until 30% improving considerably occurs to an improvement proposal, giving like result the costs.
