Abstract

This paper gtves the study on productivity improvement using One Piece Flow technique. The study is done at Flextronics (M) Sdn. Bhd. This study are using Line A8 and Dory High product as a sample. The study consists of relayout Dory High line to identify the improvement happens after implementing One Piece Flow concept. The study also needs to analyze the quality improvement on this line. Several data were taken and prove the improvement by using One Piece Flow. The data covered cycle time, the output and quality data at VMI and ICT station. The One Piece Flow technique implemented at the backend area which consists ICT station, FCT station, Final Inspection station and Outgoing Quality Assurance (OQA) station. There is also one KAIZEN project implemented with One Piece Flow technique to reduce the reject rate. This project also been analyzed because it contribute to quality improvement. After the implementation of One Piece Flow activities, there are several problems detected. The problem is narrow path at backend area, operator behaviors and too many operators for VMI process although the VMI is Non-Value Added process. The suggestion is given to solve the problem.
