Sistema de gerenciamento de estoque de manutenção industrial aplicado em uma empresa do segmento automotivo

Abstract

This capstone project aimed to develop and implement an inventory management system dedicated to industrial maintenance and applied within an automotive sector company. Amidst globalization and the industrial sector's constant evolution, efficient MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) inventory management proved to be a strategic factor essential for ensuring production continuity, reducing costs, and enhancing organizational competitiveness. The research began by identifying key bottlenecks in material control, seeking to understand the operational and financial shortcomings that directly impacted maintenance performance. The methodology relied on extracting and analyzing real-world data from the SAP system widely used in business management which allowed for the identification of inconsistencies in the material flow, ranging from procurement to the return of damaged items to inventory. Utilizing management and engineering tools, a control model was developed to establish quality standards, monitor performance indicators, and support decision-making. The results included cost reductions stemming from systemic inconsistencies yielding annual savings of 417,789.36 as well as increased material turnover, optimized inventory levels, and improved maintenance process reliability. Adopting a structured inventory management system drove greater efficiency; a direct impact on MTTR was observed, with intervention times reduced by 1.06 hours each. This accelerated the maintenance process, ensuring the sustainability of industrial operations and strengthening the organization's competitive edge in the face of contemporary market demands.
