Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study aimed to examine the impact of Lean Principles on the productivity of XYZ Manufacturing Company.The company strives to provide quality products and uphold Filipino excellence on a global scale.To remain competitive, it must eliminate waste and enhance efficiency.However, research on Lean's application in the bottling industry, particularly in finished pack inspection, remains limited.There is also a gap in understanding how Lean contributes to bottling line productivity.A descriptive developmental approach was employed, incorporating observations and data collection to evaluate the current state of the finished pack inspection process, focusing on cycle time and output.Descriptive and inferential statistics were utilized to analyze performance trends and pinpoint inefficiencies.The study identified three major wastes-motion, transportation, and overprocessing-all of which contributed to extended cycle times and lower productivity.By implementing Leandriven improvements, significant reductions in cycle time and increases in output were observed, with a p-value below 0.05, confirming Lean's effectiveness.These findings underscore the potential of Lean strategies in optimizing bottling line operations.The study offers valuable insights for industry practitioners and future research, demonstrating how waste reduction enhances efficiency and productivity in manufacturing.
