dc.description.abstractAbstract - The study was conducted in an Aerospace Industry located in Isabela, Puerto Rico. The objectives of this project were to eliminate report errors and to reduce the report development from 5 days to less than 1 day. A Value Stream Mapping was created to provide real values of times that a task or process takes to be completed. To reduce those times, Macros were created to automatize the process and a new Value Stream Mapping was created to show the new times that takes to perform the same previous tasks. Data was collected and analyze to verify if the process comply with the Industry and clients requirements. After a month of data collection, the data shows a dramatic reduction in the process errors that previously were created manually and the time to develop the report was reduced from 5 days to 1.2 days with s yearly cost savings of $97,760.
