This project aims to improve inventory management at a fast-food company specializing in Japanese and Chifa cuisine, addressing the issue of overcosts caused by poor handling of the storage cycle and losses of perishable ingredients. To tackle this situation, tools like the 5S methodology were implemented to optimize organization and storage space, and the ABC classification, which prioritized high-turnover, high-value items such as frozen fish and seafood, essential for the menu. These actions helped improve workflow and inventory control. Additionally, the Six Sigma methodology was employed to reduce variations in inventory management processes, allowing the identification and correction of inefficiencies in handling frozen ingredients. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) was also implemented in the cold storage, crucial for preventing refrigeration equipment failures and avoiding product losses due to temperature fluctuations. Preventive maintenance and staff training were key to ensuring the proper preservation of frozen perishable goods. The cycle counting system was finally adopted, enabling constant and precise monitoring of inventory levels without interrupting daily operations. As a result, a 22% reduction in inventory management costs will be achieved, improving operational efficiency and accuracy in controlling frozen supplies. This model not only improved the company's competitiveness but also offers a replicable approach for other areas of the business and the restaurant industry, highlighting the importance of integrating advanced technologies and continuously training staff to ensure long-term successs.
