El progreso alcanzado en los campos de la informática ha permitido a las empresas un mayor acercamiento entre sus departamentos y un mayor aprovechamiento de la información que circula dentro como fuera de ellos, todo esto con el fin de lograr la mayor flexibilidad de sus procesos, tiempos de respuestas rápidos frente a los cambios y nuevas ventajas competitivas. Sin embargo, dentro de esta integración es común que el área de producción se ve aislada del resto del sistema debido principalmente a que la tecnología que emplea es diferente a la que normalmente se utiliza para la integración de los otros procesos de una empresa. El presente artículo expone las dificultades que presenta esta integración y las alternativas existentes para alcanzar su máximo grado de desarrollo.

Las MYPES (Micros Y Pequeñas Empresas), cada vez son más representativas en sus países pero, carecen de un sistema de calidad por suponer que conlleva una elevada inversión. Lo anterior, implica que la gestión no sea adecuada y que se incumplan con sus objetivos. Actualmente, se busca adaptar metodologías Lean, normalmente usadas en grandes empresas, para que este tipo de negocios aprovechen sus beneficios. Se propone un modelo de aplicación de Poka Yoke, que contribuya en la solución de problemas de calidad en una MYPE peruana del rubro cervecero. A través de la matriz DMAIC (Definir, Medir, Analizar, Implementar y Controlar), se identifican problemas y soluciones, y se reducen en más de 30% los indicadores de calidad. Los resultados evidencian que la metodología Lean se puede aplicar en todo tipo de empresas y que puede ser un apoyo para los emprendedores que presenten incon...

Like in other large cities around the world, Lima suffers everyday from public transportation problems, and experts have said very few about how to face the challenge that the improvement of this complex system represents. This paper presents and analyzes thoroughly the classical four-stage transport model, focused on the demand for transportation services. Hence, the authors are trying to encourage the discussion about the necessity of adopting a methodological framework, as the fist step in the effort to reduce the effects of the lack of planning of Lima’s transportation system on the life quality of its inhabitants.

The purpose of the research focused on the application of tools such as MRP and MPS in the hamburger process in a dark kitchen, with the objective of reducing the opportunity cost produced by unsold products due to lack of supplies. The improvement proposal was divided into two parts, the first with a focus on production planning and control and the second part, related to a new kitchen design. In addition, in order to design a new floor plan, the Guerchet method was used, as well as the relational diagram of activities. The investigation resulted in approximately 10% of additional incoming orders that could have been attended to in the month of October.

Faced with the growing problem of disruptions affecting the supply chains of companies around the world, this article seeks to provide a theorical contribution based on the compilation of resilience strategies and the concepts they entail. A thorough literature review, classification of the relevant concepts found, and validation and discussion by experts in a sector that has not been previously covered, which is retail in Peru, were carried out. The main resilience strategies in different global supply chains that could be applied on the retail sector were identified, grouping them into 16 proposed macro strategies, facing 8 major disruptions and applicable in 3 phases of resilience (preparedness, response and recovery). The results are expected to serve as a guide for small, medium or large companies in the face of future local or global events that may affect their supply chain.
