A efetividade da implementação de metodologias organizacionais em uma empresa de médio porte

Abstract

The main goal of this study is to show the effects of using organizational methods in a medium-sized company, expressing the quantized results as a way of convincing the managers of their significance. The study is based on two specific kinds of methods: PDCA Cycle and 5S (Five Senses). It discusses their specifications and displays the ways adopted to install them. The result comes as graphic representations of the improvements, utilizing common tools of the total quality management and continuous improvement. On this case, Histograms and Pareto’s Diagram were largely applied, seeking to express, in the best way possible, the comparisons of periods before and after the installation of such programs. The results found show that applying the Five Senses on the teams, allied to the application of the PDCA Cycle, made possible to begin and motivate a process of seeking an effective, productive environment. Any company that wishes to survive in a competitive context such improvements must be perceived and acknowledged.
