CONCLUSION
The case study conducted at ABC Company is successful. Firstly, the time losses at
production was identified which is 15.48 hours. Then, by using PDCA Cycle and sometools, the root cause was identified and improvement solution was proposed. Finally, the
effect of improvement was measured by comparison of lead time before and after
improvement. Sales order processing lead time was reduced about 6.98% and
production lead time reduced about 14.93%. So, all objective were achieved. Kaizen
plays an important role in eliminating losses and waste either in production or nonproduction.
A slight improvement of 1% is considered a good improvement in
workplace. The most important thing in kaizen is make the improvement continuously.
To make the continuous improvement in company, firstly is to set the right mindset.
Some of kaizen mindset are such think that everything is can and should be improve,
and also should emphasis on process which establish a way of thinking oriented at
improving processes, and a management system that supports and acknowledges
people's process-oriented efforts for improvement. Besides, to gain success in any
Kaizen activities, involvement of top management and workers are very significant as
illustrated by this paper. An implementation is worthless if workers don’t utilize the full
potential of it and also if top management doesn’t support any of ideas. A clear and
sound target to achieve is lit up first following by steps to achieve it, that’s kaizen
improvement method. Apart from being a well- known improvement method in
Japanese firms, Kaizen is gaining attention from all industries internationally for their
companies to strive and maintaining zero waste policy. Kaizen generates breakthrough
improvements quickly, without huge capital investments and or extensive commitments
of employ time. Company using kaizen find that they not only reduce waste and see
immediate results; they also increase productivity, lower costs, and energize employees.
Overall, Kaizen project conducted on sales order processing processes at ABC
Company have been a success and it contributes for the reduced lead time.
