The purpose of this study is to reduce the kits preparation time in the main warehouse of an automotive company. In order to achieve this goal, the design of an order preparation system using Lean tools is proposed. The main reasons why the kits preparation time is high in the current state is due to the mess, inefficient layout, poor inventory control and non-standardized work method. Solving this problem is really important for the company in study because its operators are no longer having time to do other activities that are also important for the warehouse operations; and a certain monthly demand is not being supplied, which later results in loss of earnings. In that way, the methodology proposed includes a mix of the next lean tools: 5’S, Kanban, Layout redesign and work standardization. The implementation of the proposed methodology required great commitment from the all the workers involved in the process (including managers and operational workers) as well as a lot of discipline in order to maintain the improvements over time. As a result of the proposed system’s implementation, it was possible to achieve a reduction in the kits preparation time of 41% approximately and an increase in productivity of 70%. Also, other motivation of this study is to transfer a philosophy born in manufacturing to other areas in which is not normally applied nor explored, such as the logistics sector. This paper hopes to reduce the information gap in this area.
