Resumo Este artigo aborda sobre o tema Lean Office, com o objetivo de analisar os métodos de melhoria contínua e relacionar os artigos pesquisados com a engenharia de produção. Com o desenvolvimento da pesquisa, compreendeu-se que o Lean tem uma grande importância nas empresas. Isso porque suas ferramentas são muito eficientes para eliminar desperdícios e melhorar os processos. A ferramenta mais utilizada e eficiente dos artigos analisados é o Mapeamento de Fluxo de Valor (VSM). Como o Lean foi criado para a manufatura, implementá-lo dentro do escritório tem algumas dificuldades, pois há uma necessidade de adaptar as ferramentas ao ambiente de escritório e, além disso, na implementação em organizações, sente-se a dificuldade dos indivíduos em se habituar com esse novo pensamento e maneira de trabalhar. Ao relacionar o tema com as áreas da Engenharia de Produção, notou-se que todas as suas áreas estão ligadas com o Lean Office. As áreas dessa Engenharia se auto relacionam, ou seja, elas mesmas se complementam e estão interligadas. Abstract This article deals with the topic of Lean Office, with the aim of analyzing continuous improvement methods and relating the researched articles to production engineering. With the development of the research, it was understood that Lean is of great importance in companies. This is because its tools are very efficient to eliminate waste and improve processes. The most used and efficient tool of the analyzed articles is the Value Stream Mapping (VSM). As Lean was created for manufacturing, implementing it within the office has some difficulties, as there is a need to adapt the tools to the office environment and, in addition, when implementing it in organizations, it is felt that individuals have difficulty getting used to this new thinking and way of working. When relating the theme to the Production Engineering areas, it was noted that all its areas are linked with the Lean Office. The areas of this engineering are self-related, that is, they complement each other and are interconnected.

Boa gestão de recursos se faz necessária para que uma organização, grande ou pequena, se mantenha no páreo com os demais concorrentes, pois, nos dias de hoje, o nível de competitividade define o sucesso de um empreendimento. Nesse sentido, existem diversas maneiras de gerir de forma satisfatória, mediante ferramentas e filosofias distintas que podem servir de auxílio, se forem escolhidas de forma correta, provando-se úteis para o alcance de objetivos que visam a melhoria contínua. Nessa acepção, o presente estudo fez a utilização de pesquisa exploratória, na qual foi realizado o levantamento dos problemas existentes e, também, de pesquisa-ação para as inserções necessárias, com o objetivo de implementar a abordagem de melhoria contínua nos processos, por meio da abordagem Lean Manufacturing, em uma empresa de pequeno porte, Arte Mesa da Lili. Com o intuito de mitigar o efeito causado pelo desperdício de espera, foi aplicada a metodologia 5S em concomitância com novo arranjo no espaço físico para obter maior eficiência produtiva. A utilização dessas ferramentas se mostrou pertinente, culminando para resultados efetivos, pois foi possível notar um melhor aproveitamento produtivo, com redução de custos relacionados à compra de matéria-prima, mitigação dos efeitos causados pelo desperdício de espera e produção em menor tempo, tendo em vista a redução de forma significativa, cerca de 22,3%, para a produção do porta-guardanapo.

The commercialization of natural products is growing exponentially in Brazil and, thus, industries need to have increasingly efficient production processes. In view of the industry's demands for process standardization and continuous improvement execution, the objective was to determine actions for the insertion of improvements in the company's production processes. The method is qualitative in nature, with a descriptive and exploratory design. As a research strategy, a case study was used in a natural products company. At the end of the study, it was possible to present proposals for improvement in the stock of finished product, avoiding damage to packaging, as well as changes in product identification, making the space more harmonious and enabling changes in the current layout. Still, it was suggested the implementation of a PCP sector responsible for receiving, processing, raising the demands of raw materials and purchase requests. This way, the employees from the production sector would be responsible only for the production, not needing to segregate orders of products already in stock and without raw material. It was also suggested the application of a supplier control metric with the development of a database, providing an effective improvement in the choice of suppliers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A melhoria de processos produtivos em uma organização é uma necessidade em virtude da elevada competividade no mercado, além de demandas por parte de órgãos reguladores. No setor mineral, tais ações se tornam ainda mais importantes, uma vez que o setor está constantemente sujeito a incertezas não aplicáveis a outros setores industriais. Neste trabalho foi utilizada a metodologia Lean Seis Sigma para o aumento da eficiência operacional da etapa de Separação Magnética de Alta Intensidade, diante do fato de que a recuperação metalúrgica estava, em média, 7,21% menor que o valor esperado. A execução do projeto foi feita seguindo-se o ciclo DMAIC, onde as investigações realizadas mostraram que 52,3% das causas-raiz estavam atribuídas à própria operação do equipamento (separador magnético). Intervenções no processo e adequações no funcionamento do separador resultaram em um aumento de 9,66% na média da recuperação metalúrgica, a qual ficou 1,75% maior que a meta estabelecida (94,63%). Uma redução de 65,66% no desvio padrão desta variável também foi observada, o que se traduz em uma redução da variabilidade geral do processo.

Faced with the current competitive scenario, organizations seek strategies that allow control in executions and the generation of improvements in processes to meet market demands. In this view, quality is considered an important instrument for competitive advantage, as this management aligned with the organization's strategies can provide essential elements for decision making. On the other hand, we can see the importance of people and the dynamics of knowledge they have to ensure the correct execution of processes. In this scenario, this study aims to analyze the relationship between Knowledge Management and Quality Management for the Continuous Improvement of processes in a company in the energy industry. Therefore, a quantitative descriptive research was carried out. A survey-type questionnaire was applied to 371 employees of the organization for data collection. The results showed that all 11 hypotheses were confirmed, showing that the aspects that underlie Knowledge Management and Quality Management are related to each other, both aimed at promoting Continuous Improvement in the context of the organization. According to the respondents, it was possible to perceive the degree of understanding of the impact of the processes performed in the organization that add value, regardless of being certified in Quality Management or not.

Competitividade e maior performance podem resultar do investimento em inovação organizacional, mesmo que ainda seja subjetiva em sua compreensão e finalidade. O referido estudo tem por objetivo apresentar um framework conceitual que demonstre a dinâmica e movimento da inovação organizacional e chancele um modelo de diagnóstico da prática deste tipo de inovação. Apurou-se que houve um progresso no entendimento da temática, surgindo “abordagens e ferramentas” que podem ser caracterizadas como inovação organizacional. Bem como, uma série de ganhos, a partir do uso desta inovação, foram constatados, entre eles, o aumento da eficiência operacional, estimulo à cultura de inovação, reestruturação da gestão e procedimentos, e ampliação da satisfação dos colaboradores e demais Stakeholders. Mediante a isso, o framework proposto apresenta uma transformação, onde o aprendizado e conhecimento acobertam o desenvolvimento operacional, humano e das relações externas, e orienta a empresa a identificar e aproveitar oportunidades internas e do macroambiente. Assim, o modelo concentra e transmite a importância da melhoria contínua; a efetiva participação dos colaboradores nos processos de inovação; cooperação da empresa na sua cadeia de valor; capacidade para criar e aproveitar novos negócios e; habilidade de implementar e usufruir dos diversos tipos de inovação.

O termo eficiência, de forma geral, retrata à medida que um resultado é produzido com menor quantidade observada de desperdício e esforço, isto é, realizar uma operação com o mínimo de perdas. Diante disso, a verificação da eficiência dos equipamentos do processo pode auxiliar na redução de problemas complexos ligados a produção, intervindo ainda na análise do sistema produtivo. Assim, este artigo teve como objetivo aplicar o Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) em um sistema produtivo, para monitorar e avaliar a situação dos equipamentos utilizados no processo, evidenciando as possíveis melhorias. O presente estudo, do ponto de vista metodológico, classificou-se como um estudo de caso, realizado em uma empresa do setor vinícola, localizada na Região Administrativa Integrada de Desenvolvimento (RIDE) em Pernambuco. O estudo, pôde apontar que os equipamentos escolhidos para análise, a prensa (OEE = 83,47 %) e as duas máquinas de envase (69,19 % e 69,38 %, respectivamente), podem ter seu desempenho melhorado. Para isto, o plano de ação comporta-se como uma ferramenta gerencial fundamental e deve ter sua execução para que a empresa tenha, de fato, mais lucro e melhor qualidade nos produtos fabricados. Como principal limitação do estudo, pode-se citar a quantidade de equipamentos analisados, tendo em vista que a empresa conta com uma vasta combinação destes. Além disso, a verificação dos valores foi executada em apenas um mês, recomendando-se, portanto, para estudos futuros, a análise e comparação dos valores por mês.

The improvement of production processes in an organization is a necessity due to the high competitiveness in the market, as well as demands from regulatory agencies. In the mining sector, such actions become even more important, as the sector is constantly subject to uncertainties not applicable to other industrial sectors. In this work the Lean Six Sigma methodology was used to increase the operational efficiency of the High- Intensity Magnetic Separation step, given the fact that the metallurgical recovery was, on average, 7.21% lower than the expected value. The project execution was done following the DMAIC cycle, where the investigations showed that 52.3% of the root-causes were attributed to the equipment (magnetic separator) operation itself. Interventions in the process and adjustments in the operation of the separator resulted in a 9.66% increase in the average metallurgical recovery, which was 1.75% higher than the established target (94.63%). A reduction of 65.66% on the standard deviation of this variable was also observed, which translates into a reduction in overall process variability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
