Abstract/Summary
The E-jeepney production system of MD Enterprises has been in existence since 2008, initially producing two units of e-jeepneys for its first client. This system study on the Production of E-jeepney of M.D Juan Enterprise covered all its production processes from the shearing process until the trimming process for the one-year period of July 2009 to June 2010.
The main problem being addressed after a thorough situation appraisal is that The E-jeepney production of MD Juan Enterprise experienced a total of 31 cases of warranty returns which generated an additional expense of Php 174,334.61 for the company.
The cause and effect analysis conducted surfaced the following true causes: that 81.90% of the cost returns are due to workers lack of electrical wiring connection and part installation skills, quality control is not fully implemented, 17.63% of the costs from returns are low quality part such as: the battery connector, cable, cut off switch, and transmission which are all coming from the suppliers and parts are not properly stored in the inventory.
Recommended solutions were generated to solve these root causes with their corresponding proposed systems: proper screening and monitoring of workers by having a systematic hiring procedure changing the layout of the inventory storage and managing how the materials are handled proposing a training program for the workers and implementing a standardize quality control and pre-delivery inspection for the production. It was shown through the cost-benefit that the solutions are feasible because of the positive net present value of PHP 313,456.64 with a payback period of 7.08 months. The alternative solutions could be implemented within a span of 10 weeks or 2.5 months.
