Abstract

Lean manufacturing and Constraint Theory (TOC) are tools that specialize in continuous improvement. The proposal focuses on obtaining the best result by executing the 5 phases of the Thinking process, an introductory tool to TOC, which, hand in hand with Lean Manufacturing tools, will be responsible for eliminating activities that do not add value to the process and optimize the process. In this way, the improvement proposal is applied to the cement industry in Pisco, Ica. This industry poses a growing demand, being directly affected by low productivity compared to other cement companies. The following research develops from the need to improve productivity, as well as to increase the production capacity and competitiveness of companies in the construction segment. In such matter, these methods will reduce high inventory costs, unmet demand costs, low level of service and logistical cost overruns, among other problems that the company is dealing.
