Resumen
En los últimos años, un número creciente de empresas ha utilizado diferentes tipos de programas de calidad para aumentar la satisfacción del cliente interno y externo, así como para reducir los costos de la no calidad. Entre todos estos programas, Seis Sigma es quizás la iniciativa más aceptada por una amplia gama de organizaciones. Actualmente las empresas están implementando Seis Sigma para mejorar la calidad y eficiencia de sus procesos. Comestibles Integrales S.A.S es una empresa nacida en Colombia, que fabrica y comercializa galletas de diferentes referencias, a través de veinte años, se ha posicionado en el mercado nacional gracias a la calidad y el delicioso sabor tradicional de las galletas. Hoy en día, la empresa se dedica con pasión, calidad y altos estándares a fabricar una amplia variedad de productos, dentro de los cuales se encuentra la línea de galletas saladas tipo cracker. Actualmente, dentro del proceso de fabricación de las galletas de esta referencia, concretamente en ciclo de empacado, el producto final dentro del control de calidad establecido, se pesa para determinar si está dentro de las especificaciones requeridas por la empresa, en este sentido, se está presentando una variabilidad significativa en los pesos finales del producto, los cuales están superando el límite de especificación establecido y por consiguiente se están presentando costos de no calidad importantes causando un aumento el costo de las materias primas para la elaboración de las galletas. La presente investigación está dirigida a elaborar una propuesta en la cual, mediante la aplicación de las herramientas de la metodología Seis Sigma en la etapa de empaque, se busca minimizar la variabilidad de los pesos finales en las galletas saladas tipo cracker, realizando una optimización en el proceso que permita establecer parámetros operativos de mejora y control, llevando a la empresa a conseguir una reducción significativa en las pérdidas económicas actuales.
In recent years, a growing number of companies have used different types of quality programs to increase internal and external customer satisfaction, as well as to reduce the costs of non-quality. Among all these programs, Six Sigma is perhaps the most accepted initiative by a wide range of organizations. Companies are currently implementing Six Sigma to improve the quality and efficiency of their processes. Comestibles Integrales S.A.S is a company born in Colombia, which manufactures and markets cookies of different references, through twenty years, it has positioned itself in the national market thanks to the quality and delicious traditional flavor of the cookies. Today, the company is dedicated with passion, quality and high standards to manufacturing a wide variety of products, among which is the line of cracker-type salty cookies. Currently, within the manufacturing process of the cookies of this reference, specifically in the packaging cycle, the final product, within the established quality control, is weighed to determine if it is within the specifications required by the company, in this sense, it is It is presenting a significant variability in the final weights of the product, which are exceeding the established specification limit and therefore significant non-quality costs are being presented, causing an increase in the cost of raw materials for the production of cookies. This research is aimed at developing a proposal in which, by applying the tools of the Six Sigma methodology in the packaging stage, it seeks to minimize the variability of the final weights in cracker-type salty cookies, performing an optimization in the process that allows establishing operational parameters for improvement and control, leading the company to achieve a significant reduction in current economic losses.
