Adopting Pdca to Loss Reduction: A Case Study in a Food Industry in Southern Brazil

Abstract: This study presented a case study about the application of the PDCA Cycle to analyze and solve the problem of excessive losses of sauce in a process that produces frozen meals in a food industry in Southern Brazil. Through a quantitative and qualitative approach, it was demonstrated the way of implantation of PDCA in the process and its performance as a tool for continuous improvement. The amount of lost sauce was weighed for the calculation of losses as well as a survey of the status of the process indicators… Show more

“…It was verified that 77% of the losses were associated the production sector, therefore, it was proposed to carry out future work for the elaboration of a 5W2H action plan, focusing on the survey of solutions for the improvement of the production stage of pieces of bread and other products (Novaski et al, 2020). Antunes Júnior and Broday (2019) describe the process of manufacturing frozen meals in the food industry in Southern Brazil, analyzing losses of sauce placed in frozen meals during the packaging stage. Thus, this study will demonstrate the adoption of the PDCA Cycle in the aid of sauce loss reduction, as well as proposed measures of control for process continuous improvement.…”
