Propuesta de modelo de simulacion de negocios promodel para la empresa Incarpel, sector manufacturero de la provincia de El Oro.

Abstract

The manufacturing industry has benefited from the use of business simulation. Softwares such as ProModel, allow you to visualize the behavior of variables subject to possible scenarios, which may directly or indirectly affect a certain company, so that they choose the paths that provide greater utility. In the INCARPEL cardboard factory in the province of Oro, there are losses due to the high unproductive times caused by the setting up of printers. For this reason, in this practical case the objective was to design a proposal for a business simulation model for manufacturing companies in the province of El Oro. A methodology of theoretical approach of explanatory and descriptive analysis was applied, through the study variables in the manufacturing sector. In addition, pertinent literature from scientific journals was compiled to support the development of this work. Regarding the contextual data, they were obtained through the application of an interview, in which the operation of the process of enlisting the printing bodies of the cardboard box was outlined. As a result of this simulation, downtime in the setup process was reduced from 786 hours to just 316 hours. Those that would mean $ 490,680.00 to the cartonera. more profit. It is determined that the implementation of the proposed simulation model would positively affect the productivity of the INCARPEL carton factory, since it will reduce unproductive time and considerably increase its annual utility, generating in the long term an improvement in its productivity.
