The Six Sigma methodology for process improvement has been used in the industrial sector since the 70’s. The developed project aimed to explore the process of load for the international market and to reduce the variability, of the same, at the warehouse of finished products, with this service being provided in outsourcing by another enterprise. The Six Sigma methodology was implemented and studies of the load time for the Spanish market were carried out, as a pilot test. This project allowed the improvement of 1 stage in the Six Sigma project management of the load process, proportional to the responsiveness of the company. Despite the small incremental changes improvement of load processes can give origin to positive results.
A metodologia Seis Sigma de melhoria de processos tem sido utilizada no setor industrial desde 1970. O projeto desenvolvido tinha como objectivo estudar o processo de cargas para o mercado internacional e reduzir a variabilidade do mesmo no armazém de produto acabado, sendo que este serviço é prestado em outsourcing por outra empresa. Foi aplicada a metodologia Seis Sigma e foram realizados estudos dos tempos de carga para o mercado espanhol, como teste piloto. O presente projeto permitiu o incremento de 1 nível sigma na eficiência do processo de carga proporcional à capacidade de resposta da empresa. Apesar de pequenas mudanças incrementais os projetos de melhoria de processos de carga podem gerar resultados positivos.
