Masters thesis, Universiti Putra Malaysia.
Abstract
Implementation of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is increasingly being seen
as a suitable initiative or technique for effectively involving the workforce in
manufacturing based organizations to increase productivity with the support of both
effective and efficient maintenance works as well as inventory management system.
The aim of this research is concerned with the development of a computerize
inventory management system using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. This improvement
is to replace present manual paperwork procedure towards the implementation of
TPM and IS014000. The proposed system attempts to achieve this by providing a
database for parts information storage with search function, ability to record each
inventory transactions in real time, calculating material requirement planning
(MRP), create Bill Of Materials (BOM) and making purchase order (PO). This
research also includes the evaluation of the system on real data from the company.
The data shows that this system produced correct result and reduce the time spend on
data searching by 80.4% or increase the manpower efficiency by 510%. These results show that this system can lead to increase the controllability and monitoring
of inventory, and increase manpower efficiency.
