X Inc. in Tangerang Regency is a company enganged in manufacturing and has a focus on producing vehicle accessories with the ABS plastic as the main material. X Inc. has 4 main warehouses, each of them contains work areas that have different functions and different machines. However, the existence of many work areas and a fairly dense production schedule means that the factory must operate in effective and efficient time management and at the lowest possible cost. So, one way to find out an effective and efficient and low cost production process is to conduct a review regarding the existing material handling at the factory. It is necessary to observe the material handling flow and calculate the distance and costs incurred by the factory for material handling. The methods that will be used are the FTC, ARC, ARD, AAD methods and then recalculate the distance and cost of redesigned material handling. Based on the results obtained from the redesign of the facility layout owned by X Inc., it was found that the redesign using the new method made the material flow distance closer by 16.37% and the required material handling costs were 10.75% cheaper than the former layout.

The handgrip is a vehicle accessory that functions as a grip for bus passengers who do not get a seat to maintain their balance while the bus is driving. Currently, the handgrips available on these buses are comfortable for users who have the right height to hold the handgrips. However, the hand grip position is considered too high and makes it very difficult for people with short stature to find a grip on the bus. We created a product design to help people who have difficulty using existing hand grips based on these complaints. The handgrip of Multifunctional Bus designed ergonomically includes adjusting handgrip length according to the user's height. Multifunctional Bus Hand Grip products have been designed using several aspects without changing the Product's primary function. Besides, we also focus on the feasibility analysis and planning layout of PT Trans Sejahtera Tbk as the Multifunction Bus Hand Grip producer. After analyzing several aspects, then Multifunctional Bus Hand Grip products will be marketed in the DKI Jakarta area. The total of products produced in the first year will be 3422 units obtained by forecasting using the linear method. In normal conditions with a MARR of 15%, the NPV is Rp1,154,290,436.07, an IRR of 20%, a B / C ratio of 1.66, and a BEP 42091.8 units, and a payback period of 6.5 years. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
