CHARIGUAMAN-ARTIAGA, Robinson Lenin y REAL-PEREZ, Grether Lucía. Evaluation of the productive capacity of a footwear company in Ambato, Ecuador. Ing. Ind. [online]. 2022, vol.43, n.2, pp. 3-13. Epub 11-Jul-2022. ISSN 1815-5936.
Production is a daily activity carried out by companies, making the most of available resources, depending on the production capacity of the production plant to deliver a final product that generates customer satisfaction. The objective of this article is to evaluate the productive capacity of a footwear company in Ambato, Ecuador. The applied methodological procedure considers the calculation of the productive capacities in the four productive processes (Cutting, Setting, Assembly and Finishing) that the company has. Through the study of 51 operations that the production plant has in its entirety, the limiting point is found in the Aparado process. Based on the results, alternative solutions are proposed such as: mobilizing personnel from other areas where demand exceeds or, in turn, outsourcing in order to meet monthly demand. These strategies allow the company to meet its demand and increase the productivity.
