Abstract: In any process industry, there will be a chance to increase the efficiency of the process. There is a less possibility of achieving complete efficiency in any system but there are certain concepts to make it possible. One such concept is lean manufacturing. In this paper, bakery is taken as the industry and its process is studied. It has been analyzed that there are certain possibilities to make the process efficient. For that, the concept 5s, a Japanese concept is been implemented in the bakery and the efficiency of the process is increased. Also, process flow chart and Two handed process chart is has been worked out for the system and thus the productivity of the bakery is increased by eliminating the wastes.
Keywords: Lean, six sigma, 5s, process chart, two handed process chart, process industry, bakery, efficiency, productivity
Scope of the Article: Application Artificial Intelligence and machine learning in the Field of Network and Database
