Diseño e implementación de un plan estratégico de producción para la optimización de la producción en la Empresa Industrias Metálicas Vilema IMEV INDUIMEV CIA. LTDA

Abstract

The research aimed to design and implement a strategic production plan to optimize production at "INDUSTRIAS METÁLICAS VILEMA IMEV INDUIMEV CIA. LTDA." A mixed-methods approach was used, with a descriptive level, applied type, and a non-experimental design. Initially, a diagnosis of the current state of the company's production process was conducted. It was determined that the products with the highest demand were linear pedestrian doors and linear garage doors. Several factors that negatively influenced the production process were identified, such as poor maintenance, the absence of a production plan, workers' lack of knowledge about machine operation, unoptimized processes, and inefficient production control. A strategic production plan was developed and implemented to address these issues, including a production plan, maintenance plan, operation optimization, training plan, and performance indicators. The evaluation of compliance with this strategic plan was carried out through the proposed indicators, showing a sustained improvement in the company's performance during the evaluated period. After the implementation of the strategic production plan, significant increases in productivity indices were evidenced. In the case of linear pedestrian doors, the productivity index increased from 78% to 95%, while, in the production of linear garage doors, the increase was from 77% to 86%. These results demonstrated the effectiveness of the strategic plan implemented to improve efficiency and productivity in the manufacture of these products.
