ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL LOGISTICS: CASE STUDY AT MASCARELLO BUS BODY IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF CASCAVEL, PARANÁ

Abstract

The reflection on the implementation of the LIA (Advanced Industrial Logistics) tool at Mascarello Carrocerias e Ônibus came through the observations of the author who works in the company and can observe its progress. After this implementation, through this observation arose the need to write about this tool that can prove extremely important for other companies that do not yet know. This reality stems from several factors: fear of the new, not wanting to invest in something they do not know how to innovate their processes or even the uncertainty of the final result that this investment can provide. These difficulties result in statistics that are often low for these companies, as they are not updated to keep up with market developments. In order to attract attention to the theme, the work will point out the benefits achieved by the company after the implementation of the LIA, by entering all this data the system projects what materials will be needed and how much of each insum will be needed and in what stages each enters the production chain. Encompassing the management of the entire organization, making more efficient and effective their manufacturing and distribution processes through inventory reduction. THE LIA improved this system by implementing logistics, having the right material, at the right time and in the right place, thus reducing the cycle time of each bus in its workplace, reducing the rework, reducing unnecessary movement of employees, ensuring quality and generating profit for the company.
