Abstract

PT MED Batam (PT-MB) has been chosen by its headquarter office, to receive new transfer product, to be manufactured in Batam Indonesia. While it is good business opportunity, PT-MB faces productivity issue. With the benchmark of transfer site, its productivity is still 63% compared with them, during the monitoring phase of 6 months period (July – Dec 2020). To solve the problem, PT-MB should increase productivity to match with transfer site. Based on this condition, the main objective from this research is to find business solutions to increase capacity through productivity raise from 5M (Man, Machine, Material, Method, Measurement), to gain trust and capture more product transfer from headquarter. The business solutions are derived using the root cause analysis, utilizing the fishbone diagram and why-why analysis. The findings have led to identify 8 business solutions, in which covering from Man (training), Method (SOP), Measurement (SOP), Machine (TPM and Critical Spare Part), and Material (Material Lead Time and Supplier Communication). Having completed on some business solution implementation, we can achieve 7.94 units/hour by Jul 2021. Overall improvement compared with Dec 2020, productivity has increased from 5.7 units/hour to 7.94 units/hour, improved by 39.3%, in which very significant improvement. By Jul 2021, the gap is 11.7% compared with target 9 units/hour. We are confident, with 3 months towards October 2021, and some of business solutions are still in-progress for implementation, we will achieve our target of 9 units/hour.
