Abstract

Every industrial segment look for reducing costs as an alternative to improve profit margins, só the costs of inputs are always the target of policies focused on improving the efficiency of the entire production process. This way, energy expenditure is also being studied to seek the best use of this input, which has taken the study of energy efficiency management to a new level of interest that was carried out in a soda factory in the state of Paraná and presents a study case on quality tools suitable for reducing electricity consumption. The results showed that the combined application of 5W2H, Pareto Diagram, GUT Priority Matrix, KPI, Kanban, Check Sheet, Control Chart, Benchmarking, 5 Whys and PDCA as effective, because for an accumulated goal of 9.05kWh/hectoliter stipulated by the factory, the key indicator achieved was 4.53% lower, at 8.64kWh/hectoliter.
