Abstract

In Peru, the textile industry is the third activity with the highest contribution to manufacturing GDP. However, most companies suffer from a lack of production planning, organizational culture, and training. This research has focused on the development of an improvement model proposal, combining Lean Manufacturing and Systematic Layout Planning tools to solve the main problems that arise in this type of company. Which is evaluated through a simulation in the Software Arena for its validation, where a decrease of 39.76% of the transfer time was obtained, a reduction of the cycle time by 15.11% and an increase of 17.99% of productivity.
