Enhancing Productivity in Line X Regulator Assy 2 through the PDCA Method (Plan, Do, Check, Action)

Abstract

PT XYZ is a company that employs the Just In Time (JIT) production system, ensuring the precise and timely fulfillment of customer needs in accordance with the desired quantity. The motivation for this research stems from challenges within the production department, specifically related to the productivity of products on Line X Regulator Assy 2, which falls short of the company's set target. Consequently, the researcher will conduct a study titled "Improving Productivity of Part X on Line X Regulator Assy 2 with the PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Action) method," with the aim of enhancing productivity to meet the planned targets set by customers. This final project research utilizes the PDCA 8-step method, encompassing theme determination, analysis of current conditions, target setting, analysis of causes, planning countermeasures, implementation of countermeasures, evaluation of results, and, finally, standardization and follow-up. The research findings indicate a productivity increase from 79 pcs/hour to 87 pcs/hour.
