Automatização de métrica de lead time utilizando ferramenta de business intelligence: um estudo de caso aplicado à uma indústria farmacêutica

Abstract

Faced with the new scenario driven by advanced manufacturing, many industrial organizations seek to increase the productivity and efficiency of their processes through technology. To guarantee this fact, it is necessary to have control and monitoring mechanisms in real time, in addition to mutual integration between the areas involved in the flow. In this context, the objective of this work is to present a case study, developed in a hospital pharmaceutical industry located in the Northeast of Brazil, which deals with the development of an integrated system for measuring and monitoring the lead time of a finished product through the application of business intelligence techniques. The estimated gain in productivity and agility in decision making is materialized by the fact that the measurements are updated in real time, allowing information about the process to be available at any time.
