Abstract

The study's goal is to discover problems in a car service facility and come up with the best remedies to improve overall performance. The research's specific goals are to: increase productivity using Lean strategy; reduce wastage and non-value added activities; create a simple and easy work environment; develop a 5S Auditing control system to maintain the improved process; and educate Janitorial level people about the benefits of using Lean strategy. The findings of this study are based on a single case study conducted in a company that used the Lean PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) strategy, the 5S tool, and its applications to improve productivity. At various phases of the investigation, the main causes for the problem in automobile servicing were found using data-based analysis. The process parameters have been tuned and monitored to ensure the method's long-term viability.As a result of its lean strategy, the quantity of energy and non-value added activities involved with its manufacturing processes were decreased. In addition, research led to the establishment of a visual workplace, which has improved the production environment, as well as a clear and straightforward process design to build the groundwork for a future of continual improvement. The output of the business would grow by 15 automobiles each day as a consequence of this research, which would be a significant achievement. The study gives companies advice on the application and significance of quality ideas. To survive, instigation must work consistently on development-oriented activities, regardless of how these activities are character. The findings will also serve as a foundation for future study in this field, with an emphasis on practical application of these notions..
