Abstract

Production losses elimination is the process of getting rid of disruption normal operations that leads to inefficiency. This can increase costs which may be difficult to recoup unless the situation can be rapidly resolved. The goals of this project are to study and determine the significant relationship between sustainability programs and practices, legislative compliance, the benefits of production losses elimination and to verify the tangible manufacturing sustainability practices in palm oil mill. A total of 28 selected palm oil mills in Malaysia have been surveyed using a questionnaire survey where Sime Darby Plantation Sdn Bhd and Felda Palm Industries Sdn Bhd (KKS Serting) have been chosen as the case study. In the study, 20 sustainability programs and practices, 18 legislation compliances and 36 benefits of the production losses elimination have been identified. From the results, it shows that the relationship between the cradle-to-cradle manufacturing and good crushing practice for palm kernel crusher has shown the strongest correlation while in term of legislative compliance and benefits of production losses elimination, most of the elements show the moderate correlation between each other. Also, six manufacturing sustainability programs have been verified where each of them were able to increase the efficiency of the palm oil mill. In conclusion, the project was able to help to identify and eliminate the production losses as well as to increase the productivity of the palm oil mill.
