“…The application relies on I4.0 principles and allows real-time access of information and integration with other computational systems within the company, being able to automatically create work instructions and generate an optimal standard work based on operation description, sequences, production times, assembly lines and assigned products. This kind of project was also reported by Pereira et al [47] and Abreu et al [48].…”

The global industrial landscape has deeply changed over the last few years and the Industry 4.0 concept has emerged, being enabled by successive disruptive innovations and technological development that have transformed manufacturing processes. This concept is being pointed out as the fourth industrial revolution that embraces a set of new technologies that are shaping the future manufacturing vision. However, Lean Production is a widely used manufacturing approach that brings several benefits to organizations. Despite the integration between Industry 4.0 and Lean Production is being researched in the recent years, the impacts that result from the implementation of new technologies in established lean practices is not clear. The purpose of this study that consists in a systematic literature review is assessing how these emerging disruptive technologies can enhance lean practices and analyse their impacts and benefits for organizations that are moving towards this new industrial paradigm.

“…Um dos elementos desse sistema é o trabalho padronizado [11]. Uma definição para trabalho padronizado é de que se trata de um conjunto de métodos e sequências para realizar determinado processo [12]. Também remete a maneira mais segura de execução de determinada tarefa, em menor período de tempo, utilizando os recursos necessários de forma eficaz [10].…”

As tradicionais instruções de trabalho nem sempre são fáceis de serem interpretadas, pois requerem certo grau de conhecimento para que sejam compreendidas. Em alguns casos são extensas, e isso faz com que o operador não tenha interesse em utilizá-las. Além disso, documentos impressos podem ser extraviados ou ficar obsoletos devido às atualizações de processo ou de produto. Este estudo tem por objetivo demonstrar como construir uma experiência de Realidade Aumentada que funcione como meio de visualização de uma instrução de trabalho para um processo produtivo dentro de uma empresa, e também como acontece o uso dessa experiência. Esse sistema deve ser acessado no posto de trabalho do operador e fornecer todas as informações sobre a tarefa de uma maneira mais imersiva e objetiva. Para isso, é utilizado um método de criação composto por cinco etapas, que abrange desde a concepção inicial do sistema até o teste de funcionamento. Por fim, seguindo o método utilizado, identificou-se que algumas etapas da criação do sistema são semelhantes ao procedimento de criação de uma instrução de trabalho convencional. Foram identificados alguns pontos de atenção e algumas vantagens. Também se concluiu que a Realidade Aumentada pode ser utilizada como instrução de trabalho em uma fábrica, e que possibilita uma maneira mais intuitiva e imersiva para exibir as informações.

“…Standardized work is described as a working procedure that helps to develop the best working methods and sequences for each trade of work and each worker to be tasked (Fin et al, 2017). During the implementation of standardized work, it is important for management or project supervisors to standardize or regulate the working procedures in order to stabilize the process before continuous improvement can be applied (Pereira et al, 2016). According to Gomez and Hamid (2018), continuous improvements is described as a process that helps organizations to achieve high performance by eliminating defects, reducing process and product waste, managing efficient production and thus improving productivity.…”

“…It is reported that the adoption of standardized work is to help managers to eliminate waste while exploiting performance in the workplace and the operation of each worker (Pereira et al, 2016). Therefore, it can be argued that standardized work is a suitable method to prevent construction accident.…”

“… Takt time is defined as the rate or speed of time needed to produce items or units of a product in the workplace, and it is issued based on the ratio between time and production demand for the product (Fin et al, 2017). However, takt time is not measured or observed, but it is calculated based on the percentage of the available time by the output required (Pereira et al, 2016).…”

The work done on construction sites is high risk, unsafe and could result in work-related accidents. The effect of accidents often impacts the social and economic integrity of the workers and their productivity negatively. The reported study in this paper investigated 'how standardized work prevents accidents on construction sites?' A single case research design was used to collect the primary data through semi-structured interviews and focus group interviews. The collected data were analyzed thematically. From the findings, it was discovered that improper working conditions related to scaffolds often causes accidents on construction sites. In effect, the use of standardized work would help to eradicate improper working conditions that lead to accidents because it helps project supervisors/engineers to avoid errors and omissions. For standardized work to be successful, the project supervisors should actively address the behavioral problems of the workers. Therefore, it is recommended that there is a need to conduct further research that would establish the strength of the standardized work in improving health, safety and well-being (HSW) of people in the construction.
