The company has no internal inventory control in its warehouses. In the period 2022-2023, a total of 3 043 problems related to warehouse management were recorded, with an average of 84,53 problems/month. These deficiencies have led to economic setbacks, project delays, inadequate delivery times and the impossibility of guaranteeing their quality certification objectives in the short term. The objective of this study is to reduce these problems. As a methodology, lean manufacturing tools such as 5S, kaizen and kanban are implemented. After the implementation of the improvement, the problems in the warehouses were reduced to 79, with an average of 26,3 problems/month by the end of June and beginning of November 2023. It is concluded that the application of lean manufacturing tools improves efficiency rates in warehouse management.Este artículo presenta el caso de una empresa dedicada a la venta, instalación y servicio de aire acondicionado y calefacción. La empresa no tiene un control interno de inventarios en sus almacenes. En el periodo 2022-2023, se registraron 3043 problemas relacionados con la gestión de almacenes, con una media de 84,53 problemas por mes. Esto provocó problemas económicos, retrasos en los proyectos, plazos de entrega inadecuados y la imposibilidad de garantizar sus objetivos de certificación de calidad a corto plazo. El objetivo de este estudio es reducir estos problemas. Como metodología, se implementan herramientas de manufactura esbelta, tales como 5S, kaizen (mejora continua) y kanban. Tras la implementación de la mejora, los problemas en los almacenes se redujeron a 79, con una media de 26,3 problemas por mes a finales de junio y principios de noviembre del 2023. Se concluye que la aplicación de herramientas de manufactura esbelta mejora los índices de eficiencia en la gestión de los almacenes.Universidad de Lima2025-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.ulima.edu.pe/index.php/Ingenieria_industrial/article/view/797610.26439/ing.ind2025.n049.7976Ingeniería Industrial; No. 049 (2025); 62-86Ingeniería Industrial; Núm. 049 (2025); 62-862523-63261025-992910.26439/ing.ind2025.n049reponame:Revistas - Universidad de Limainstname:Universidad de Limainstacron:ULIMAspahttps://revistas.ulima.edu.pe/index.php/Ingenieria_industrial/article/view/7976/8129https://revistas.ulima.edu.pe/index.php/Ingenieria_industrial/article/view/7976/8130https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/79762025-12-19T21:06:54Z
