Applications of Lean Tools in Coconut Oil Manufacturing Company at Erode District

Abstract

In recent years, there are many factors that influence the productivity in manufacturing organization. The most widely tackled issue is how to improve efficiency and productivity. Time study technique is one amongst the productivity improvement techniques employed in several producing firms. Time study is defined as a scientific analysis method designed to determine the best way to execute the repetitive task and to measure the time spent by an average worker to complete a given task in a fixed workplace. This study shows Warehouse Management System (WMS) practices and their effects on operations. WMS was found that it has a positive impact on companies’ performance on operations management measures. Companies that manage warehousing of their products are expected to implement WMS in order to maintain their competitive edge in the global market place.
