- Abstract
A Mass Transportation Manufacturer (MTM) is a pseudonym for the company’s name as the subject in this study, faces significant challenges in its procurement process, particularly in acquiring components from foreign suppliers, which often results in prolonged delays. This delay in procurement has a direct impact on product delivery timelines, affecting overall customer satisfaction. To address these issues and optimize MTM’s procurement process, this study aims to adopt the DMAIC framework. Primary focus will involve using the Lean Six Sigma method to analyze the procurement process and identify critical areas of wastage. Root cause analysis will be conducted using the 5 Why’s method, while the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis will help prioritize high-risk wastage areas for improvement. This study will further employ Quality Function Deployment to align optimal solutions to customer expectations and technical requirements. To determine the best combination of solutions, the Analytical Hierarchy Process will be used. In conclusion, the study’s comprehensive approach seeks to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of MTM’s procurement process and reduce delays in product delivery. For future research, incorporating additional information and data on the financial and legal aspects of the recommended solutions could further enrich the study’s findings.
