Uma nova visão da manutenção produtiva total: método prático para aplicação em empresas de geração e transmissão de energia

Atualmente setor elétrico brasileiro está estruturado sobre a disponibilidade das unidades geradoras, subestações e linhas de transmissão. Com a aplicação das regras do novo modelo do setor, tanto as empresas de geração como as de transmissão, passaram a ser submetidas a mecanismos que penalizam a indisponibilidade, causada por desligamentos forçados ou programados, dos seus ativos. Para evitar a aplicação destes mecanismos, e outras penalidades, que causam grandes prejuízos, é preciso que o processo de manutenção garanta a disponibilidade e confiabilidade, dos equipamentos e instalações. Este trabalho propõe um método de gestão da produção, também direcionado para a eliminação das perdas existentes no processo de geração e transmissão de energia elétrica, adaptado da Manutenção Produtiva Total – TPM. O desenvolvimento do método está baseado no estudo da aplicação da TPM nas plantas de geração e transmissão da Eletrobras Eletronorte. O método proposto deverá fomentar a gestão da qualidade não só na manutenção e operação (O&M), mas também em todos os processos que possam impactar na disponibilidade dos ativos de geração e transmissão.

Esverdeando a manufatura: dos fundamentos conceituais ao estudo de múltiplos casos

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the integration of environmental issues in the context of manufacturing function/production (or operations), which is considered the organizational area that should lead corporate environmental management. We present a background on the greening of the manufacturing area, especially in terms of product development, process, quality management and logistics. Four case studies of Brazilian companies are presented as part of the study, and it is found that the maturity level of these companies' environmental management tends to follow the degree to which the environment has been inserted into subareas of production, especially in the process of product development. However, difficulties encountered in greening a company's logistics activities are also recognized in most cases. It is concluded that companies can overcome this challenge by adopting new concepts of green supply chain management. The notes highlight the observed distance between arguments in the international literature and the reality of Brazilian companies on the greening of manufacturing aspects.

Padronização e melhoria de processos produtivos em empresas de panificação: estudo de múltiplos casos

An important tool for organizational change is the standardization of procedures for developing standards so that companies have greater control, thus providing a broad view of their processes and needs. This paper presents and analyzes a model of standard processes developed by the bakeries in PROPAN (Support Programme Bakery), detailing each stage of deployment to evaluate both its benefits for companies and employees and its shortcomings, to make proposals for improvements. Five bakeries were selected for this multi-case study, whose methodology consists of qualitative research using semi-structured interviews, on-site observations and document analysis. The main positive points of the model are the possibility of standardized recipes and procedures, a large decrease in wasted raw material and a significant increase in worker productivity. The main challenges are the lack of employee and owner commitment to the project, the lack of materials needed for deployment and the resistance of employees to change.
