Abstract

Productivity improvement is an essential aspect for the growing manufacturing industry. Industrial sector competes each other in order to grow and well established in the striving market. The company able to streamlining the production line in order to meet the industrial need. There are two tools that can be adopted in the manufacturing industry to achieve the development of production. Time study method and work measurement known as the tools that leads improvement of the productivity. The title of the study is productivity improvement using time study method and work measurement analysis that has mainly catTied out in the Biskut Tongkat Production Sdn.Bhd. The direct observation and video recording method has been utilized in order to identify the current process flow of the long rusk biscuit. Overall the current production line consists of seven main process step in order to produce the long rusk biscuit. Each main process step was divided into desired job elements. The goal of the study is to implement the time study method and work measurement analysis in the production line in order to determine the major root that contributes to inefficiency of process flow. The root cause obtained in this study is unorganized workstation, unbalanced work motion performed by the worker and no standard time established for the main processes in production line. The observation has been carried out on the seven main process step by take account the cycle time and motion of each job performed by the worker. The standard time of seven process step has been generated by considering the allowances and performance rating. The another goal of this study is to suggest solution to improve the production line and eliminate the waste. The process flow that brings lengthy of production line has been figure out, there two main process and one elements that causes consumption of time to make the long rusk biscuit. In order to eliminate the waste and reduce the cycle time there are three possible solutions has been proposed which is utilization of 5s strategy, adoption of smart device and new working strategy. This suggested solution able to make the production line organised, the work procedure become simpler to be performed and balanced the labour motion to handle the specific task.
