Assignment 5
After receiving the order from the customers, who demand the consumption of orujo pellets,
the company must ensure that the product is present at the place of sale to the final consumer
within the established period of time.
On the other hand, a problem has been detected with respect to the involvement of factory
operators, as they aren’t engaged enough in achieving quality objectives. Although this
problem has less of an impact on the company’s results than the one previously stated, it is an
important factor for meeting the production target. That is why, actions will be taken on the
commitment and training of workers to achieve our objectives.
Several alternatives of possible solutions have been considered, taking into account all the
points of view and criteria that may affect the business objectives and strategies, such as, for
example, the care put in by the workers in the quality of the processes or the degree of
commitment of the operators so that the dryer is the only weak point of the process.
4. ACHIEVEMENTS
After the study of different alternatives to improve the production process, the main problem
has been solved, which was the supply without delays, reaching therefore some achievements
and benefits in the internal quality management.
Firstly, the opinion of the operators has been taken into account. By doing so, an improvement
is achieved in the decision-making process, thus avoiding possible later problems due to
disparities of opinions between departments. Furthermore, by taking the operators into account
in decision-making, an environment that leads to a notable improvement in the performance
and capability of the company has been achieved.
Having a second dryer also provides a series of added advantages, such as increased operating
time, avoiding production stoppages when preventive or corrective maintenance has to be
carried out on one of the dryers, as they are in active redundancy. In addition, by installing a
second drying unit, a constant flow of product is achieved, satisfying the customer’s demand.
