WEEK 6:

The Main Target this week was to distribute the questionaaires prepared to get information from the shopfloor, inventory levels screening and vendor change evaluation.

  • Proper sets of questionaire were prepared for each section. Inall there were 15 sets of 52 questionaaires.
  • I distributed them to the 15 sections and explained them about the questionnaires. alongwith the ditribution i also took notes about the working style of various workshops and nature of work there.

  • Besides this, I was looking on the defined inventory levels of various consumables. I looked through list of 439 Mechanical consumables. A list of 15 consumables was prepared whose defined inventory values didnt match the consumptions. The list was then forwarded to inventory section for proper action.

  • I prepared the vendor lists of the 10 consumables i was studying. I analysed the vendor changes over the time. Several iNferences were drawn from the study, enquired and documented.Study revealed much of the savings could be done through proper vendor selection.

At the end of week I prepared my presentation for the mid-term evaluation which was scheduled on Monday.
