Abstract(s)
Atualmente, as empresas necessitam de melhorar cada vez mais o seu processo produtivo, de se tornarem cada vez mais competitivas num mercado cada vez mais exigente em termos de qualidade, prazos e preços. A solução encontrada pela maioria das empresas passa pela implementação da cultura Lean Production. No âmbito desta dissertação foi realizada uma revisão de literatura relacionada com o Lean Manufacturing, a sua origem, os seus princípios, os desperdícios que visa combater e as ferramentas para a sua implementação. Assim, pretendeu-se identificar, em Portugal, quais as ferramentas lean mais utilizadas em função da dimensão das empresas. Para que a realização deste estudo fosse possível, foi realizada uma pesquisa na plataforma B-on (Biblioteca Online). Os resultados desta pesquisa foram submetidos a uma análise qualitativa e quantitativa. Os resultados deste trabalho demonstram que as empresas de maior dimensão estão mais motivadas para a implementação de ferramentas lean do que as empresas de menor dimensão, uma vez que 56 % dos trabalhos foram realizados em empresas de grande dimensão, 13 % empresas de média dimensão e 6% em empresas de pequena dimensão. Também foi possível concluir que as ferramentas mais utilizadas são os 5’s, utilizada em 75% dos trabalhos analisados, o Standard Work utilizada em 54% dos trabalhos e o Visual Management utilizada em 49% dos trabalhos. Estes dados podem ser justificados pela facilidade de implementação destas ferramentas e grande impacto que têm na obtenção de resultados, uma vez que conduzem rapidamente à identificação e eliminação de desperdícios nos postos de trabalho conduzindo ao aumento de produtividade.
Currently, companies are required to increasingly improve their production process in order to become more competitive in a market which is even more demanding in terms of quality, deadlines and prices. For most, the solution resides in the implementation of Lean Production. Within the context of this dissertation, a revision was undertaken of literature pertaining to Lean Manufacturing: its origin, principles, the waste it aims to minimize, and the tools used in its implementation. One thus sought to identify which Lean tools were used most often in Portugal, depending on the size of the company. For the accomplishment of this study, a research tool named B-on (Biblioteca Online) was used. The results of this study were subsequently subjected to a qualitative and quantitative analysis. The outcome of this research indicated that larger companies reveal a greater motivation to implement Lean Managing tools when compared to smaller ones: 56% of the studies analysed were conducted in bigger companies, 13% in medium-sized companies and 6% in smaller companies. One was further able to conclude that the Lean tool 5S was used most frequently, with an implementation of 75% in the studies analysed. Standard Work was applied in 54% of the papers and Visual Management was used in 49% of the articles. This data can be justified by the easy implementation of these tools and their great impact on the achievement of results, leading to the rapid identification and elimination of waste in the workplace, which culminates in increased productivity.
