PROCESSO DE COMPRA SEMI KNOCKED-DOWN: análise para redução de custos após a implementação do design for excellence

Abstract

The search for reductions in waste and consequently cost has become one of the main objectives of companies in various segments due to the high competitiveness of the global market. These reductions are usually linked to the use of quality tools that support to identify the waste in the macro and micro processes and minimize them to the maximum, guaranteeing the greater profitability of the company. This article wants to demonstrate the results obtained by implementing a quality tool in a Semi Knocked-Down purchase process. For this, a bibliographic research was done related to the subject, and from then on, a detailed analysis was started on the purchasing process in question, in order to identify possible improvements in the process in a general way. In this way, it was possible to map the entire workflow and implement all the feasible modifications that were proposed initially and during the work, reducing many waste processing increasing the company's profits.
