What is it about?

The lean manufacturing approach is one of the ways in shipyards to observe the level of waste in the production process, so that it can reduce unnecessary activities in the production process which can increase production efficiency and effectiveness

Why is it important?

Based on the results of identification using the waste assessment model (WAM) method which consists of a waste relationship matrix (WRM) and a waste assessment questionnaire (WAQ), waste is obtained namely inventory (27,20%), overproduction (20.24%), defective products (20.04%), motion (12.47%), transportation (9.23%), waiting time (7.46%) and process (3.37%).

Perspectives

There are many production activities and production flows that allow for potential waste problems that have an impact on labor usage, product quality, costs, and production time. The aim of this research is to identify waste in shipbuilding production lines through a lean manufacturing approach
