Aplicação de Ferramentas da Qualidade como Solução de Acúmulo de Insumos Defeituosos na Produção de Placas Eletrônicas

Abstract

Inventory control is essential to ensure congruence between physical and systematized stock, aiming at quality and continuous productivity improvement. This study addresses the problem of information divergence in the inventory of a multinational white goods company, resulting in excessive stock, material obsolescence, and lack of FIFO. The applied methodology included the use of quality tools and the PDCA cycle, resulting in a reduction of material costs by R$ 2,085,252.94 and the need for only 37% of the excess inventory value for operational turnover.
