Abstract

Automotive industries face pressure to meet the dynamic nature of customer demand. This study will focus on utilizing Lean Six Sigma, specifically the DMAIC methodology in developing solutionsthat will iptimize the warehousing operation, including the order forecasting, inventory management, and warehouse waste reduction. The researchers will conduct a thorough analysis of historical data, assess the current process and warehouse management system used, and use Lean Six Sigma tools and DMAIC methodology in determining the problem and Scrum methodology for developing the new warehouse management. This approach will result in cost savings and improve the overall responsiveness to customer demands. The main purpose of this research is to identify and eliminateinefficiencies in the ordering, storage, and handling of automotive parts, especially non-moving automotive parts by applying the Lean Six Sigma methodology, thereby streamlining warehouse operations. The improved process that will be developed in this study will provide the following benefits: (1) it will aid in the improvement of the overall warehousing operation of the company, (2) it may offer other potential solutions to improve the company's productivity, and (3) it may help their employees perform their tasks more effectively.
