Literature review show about the theories that get fro journal and books be an important point to make reference and ensure this project success. Hence, the scope of this project was focus on one main product at manufacturing company. For conduct this project, some methodologies are planned due to objectives and factory visit was a first step for observing the porduction system. Some necessary data such as cycle time, number of operator, setup time and others information is collected to create current state VSM. After that, the current state VSM analyzed and several wastes been identified such as high changeover time and machine downtime. From the analysis, future state VSM has been develop.
