Abstract

Productivity in a company is essential due to determine the overall performance of the company. In order to maintain or improve the performance of productivity at good condition, some companies such as Multinational Companies (MNCs) conducted productivity improvement activities to identify the root causes that contribute to the poor productivity performance. However, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) do not have the capabilities and chances to improve their productivity due to lack of expertise and knowledge. Hence, this study focuses on developing a proper methodology for productivity improvement in a manufacturing company. The aim of this study is to develop the step-by-step procedures on how to use the productivity improvement tools. The essence of this study is to develop a handbook or manual instruction of productivity improvement methodology using the proposed productivity improvement tools. The research on the tools will be carried out through findings from journals and websites. The methodology presented in the report shows the flow of integrated productivity improvement tools that will be used by the SMEs. The methodology will help the SMEs by giving them the knowledge on how to improve the productivity since the tools have successfully improved the productivity in MNCs.
