Relayout planning to reduce waste in food industry through simulation approach

Layout planning is one of the most important factors that must be considered if a company wants to become more competitive particularly in the cost, delivery and quality. A good layout can streamline transportation directly influence the cost and delivery time. This research is based on case in a fo...

A good layout can streamline transportation directly influence the cost and delivery time. This research is based on case in a food company in Indonesia. This company produces snack. The characteristic of this production process is make to stock system with 24-working hours. From the observation of the production process, it indicates that layout planning is ineffective. This showed on long distance moved of items, high number of worker and low throughput as well. The aim of this research is to re-layout in order to improve throughput and also reduce number of workers and the distance.
