Given the constant problem of personnel turnover regardless of its underlying causes, and considering the dynamic nature of the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) sector, the importance of knowledge management is evident with respect to the optimization and quality of the services offered. In this context, the proposal for a knowledge management model that integrates the ISO 30401 Standard, the Integrated Planning and Management Model (MIPG), and key characteristics of secondary models to support this initiative is presented. To achieve this, a comprehensive analysis of the primary and secondary models is carried out, exploring the main benefits and challenges of adopting these tools together. This approach provides a complete vision of how to enhance knowledge management in the sector through a knowledge management model. The research is oriented towards the proposal of a knowledge management model that adapts to the identified needs, evaluating its possible impact to demonstrate improvements in the quality of the service.

Despite the advances in the implementation of improvement projects in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), these have been carried out without following a general specific model that defines a clear procedure for their subsequent implementation in this type of organizations, which differs from industries where the Lean Six Sigma (LSS) methodology was created. The HEI have the degree work process to issue the certificate of the library, but this process is taking longer than expected. For this reason, the present research aims to design the improvement project through the LSS model for the aforementioned process. Applying this methodology, it was possible to diagnose the current state of the process, as well as to identify the needs of the interested parties. Finally, an action plan was proposed that would allow continuous improvement of the process aligned to provide quality, effectiveness and service to the process. From the application of these strategies, it is expected to reduce the delivery time of the process by up to 54%, increasing the Value-Added indicator from 8% to 17% and increasing the First Pass Yield index by up to 40%.

Continuous improvement objective is increase productivity, add value to processes and add points to company competitiveness. Lean Manufacturing and 5's (Sort, Set in order, Shine, Standardize and Sustain, for its Japanese origin) technique promote interest on the workers, as a principal actor at the search for reducing delays, optimizing operations, and gradually reduce or eliminate any failure arising from the activities. Promoting the use of lean production tools, this research, in a descriptive way, design a guide for application of the Japanese technique, seeking that companies obtain benefits by prevent and control errors that generate cost overruns. The design was tested in a company located in Bogota city, in which are identified deficiencies in factors like order, cleanliness, discipline, among others. The results that stand out with implementation are the productivity increase and expenses decrease due to bad practices and / or reprocessing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

University institutions face challenges of competitiveness derived from the demands of society, changes in student preferences, and technological evolution; this raises the need to generate objective tools for decision-making to identify the institutions that are effectively contributing to the training of high-level professionals. In this research, a methodology is developed under the Six Sigma approach to measuring the performance of the educational system. Evaluating the methodology, data from the Colombian test for the evaluation of quality in higher education in the area of engineering are used. The results show that the sigma level of the Colombian education system is at Z= 2.17 and a performance Y= 75%, which according to the criteria established in the research is considered an acceptable level. As a significant contribution of the study, a structure for the evaluation, monitoring, and improvement of university education using the Six Sigma approach is presented. The proposed structure is replicable and reproducible to any educational environment where standardized tests are implemented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The research was carried out in the commercialization unit of the fishing company of Sancti Spíritus where limitations in storage management were identified. To solve the identified problem, the objective was to implement a procedure for the diagnosis and quantification of losses in storage logistics management. The designed procedure contains a set of phases in which different methods and techniques are developed, such as the Delphi method, checklist, process flow diagram, modal analysis of failures and effects, control charts, histogram and Taguchi's loss function. As results, the following were obtained: the failures occurring inside the cold chamber with their risk priority levels; the temperature variable was determined to be outside the established control parameters; the capacity of the process in the cold chamber was calculated; and economic losses related to inefficiencies in storage were quantified. The research made it possible to detect the main causes that influence the unproductive storage logistics management of the organization, the associated losses and proposed measures for the solution of the problems identified.

The development of humanity went from the perfected ancient instruments and the surplus that changed the reality of many centuries, passing through the artistic expression that integrated scientific knowledge with culture, to its incidence in innovation, sentencing to death the status quo, brake of progress. Thus, history engendered great inventions that evolved from the Neolithic Revolution to the Industrial Revolution, which in its various stages reached our days, accelerating the creative process in industry, agriculture, scientific thought and society in general. In this context, the issue of quality has been inserted, with a historiography that recognizes an overflow of redundant definitions and the lack of consensus on a universally accepted definition of the term quality in a sea of conceptual axioms and practices associated mainly with the business phenomenon and the production. Given this reality, the present work does not propose to make up for the shortcomings of the historical-literary production that has approached the subject in its socio-economic and political context; but to provide an assessment about the circumstances of human creation emphasizing elements that are historically significant.
