How to optimize operational shipping processes of non-production materials? The Volkswagen Autoeuropa case study

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:In spite of not being a core issue, the shipping processes of non-production materials can be very relevant in terms of costs and inventory control. In Volkswagen Autoeuropa, that is not an exception and they take some relevance due to some problems brought about, mainly in case of shipping of materials on-consignment. In fact, this is the process in which this work project focuses more, but all are assessment aims. In that evaluation, one seeks to understand the current processes and their problems jointly with their interveners. The solutions go through the creation of new processes, the redesign of the current ones and the introduction of Key Performance Indicators, which will/can be applied following a defined implementation plan. With the suggested solutions, one believes that is possible to have a more accurate information about the assets status and localization, to avoid non-production materials losses and decrease costs and waste of time.
