Abstract

ABC is struggling to reach daily production objectives and has low productivity, which is one of the productline line process problem. Business Process Reengineering (BPR) employs process redesign heuristics to enhance an existing production line process using an assessment technique and fit-gap analysis. The simulation tool is used to model the production line process redesign. After adopting the provided approach and conducting the simulation, the company's production productivity and service level increased by about 45%. The required simulation resulted in critical measurements such as manufacturing capacity and lead-time. This research demonstrates the redesign production line process that must be followed to archive this artefact.
