Evaluasi Efisiensi Proses Produksi Sepatu Ardiles Kolonel : A Case Study

Abstract

PT. X produces Ardiles Kolonel school shoes for kids. Total order for Ardiles Kolonel is 6.600 boxes or 79.200 pairs from January 2016 until May 2016. This study focuses on improving efficiency in Ardiles Kolonel’s production process. Efficiency evaluation will be analyzed on five production divisions, at cutting process division, sewing process division, obras sewing division, injection process division, and packing process division. The data were gathered in several ways, such as doing interview and collecting historical data. As a result, PT. X can reduce cost by Rp 465,00 per each pair of Ardiles Kolonel size 35-38 at cutting process. At sewing process, PT. X should give more order to PT. Y, as a subcontract company, because PT. Y can sew more upper shoes in a short period time with cheapest price, compared to the others. At obras sewing division, one more operator is needed to help current operators on shoes’ upper obras sewing for 23,75 minutes per day to reach the target. At injection process division, PT. X should check the mold setting before the production process, and consider buying a set of shoes’ mold (size 31-34). At packing process, line balancing with Helgeson-Birnie method has grouped the work elements into 7 work stations with line efficiency is equal to 85,62%.
