Abstract:

The research deals with the development of the Theory of Restrictions for the improvement of the productive capacity within the textile company, through the collection of information corresponding to the inventories and sales records of the products offered in the sports line, the current situation of the company and the ABC analysis was performed. In addition, through a time study, the operational problems of the organization were identified to apply the DBR algorithm. The data to compare the production capacity was taken from the simulation in FlexSim, which generated an improvement percentage of 86.48% within the cutting process, while in the manufacturing process the improvement was 58.29% and in the packing no improvement was obtained. In the current and proposed process, the effective transfer rate is 9.00 dollars and operating expenses are reduced by 5.03%, which is verified in the financial indicator, where the net profit of the process increased by 4.30%.
