Mejora de los procesos productivos a través de la metodología 5S en una mueblería de la ciudad de Guayaquil 2021-2022.

Abstract

The following research work aims to improve production processes through the 5S methodology in a furniture store in the city of Guayaquil during the period 2021-2022. In this study, a case study was applied that served as a basis to identify the aspects that should be improved in the company's processes based on the guidelines and foundations of the 5S. As part of the strategy, a proposal was presented that contemplates a redesign of the areas that allow the application of 5S in the workplace. The 5S methodology is evaluated in all its phases and a decision is made regarding its performance in the furniture store. The implementation of this tool allows generating benefits in the production area, for which it is recommended to invest in this project, in addition to supporting its feasibility based on the financial results obtained.
