Abstract

The purpose of the research was to propose an implementation plan of the 5s method in the maintenance and repair department of maritime vessels in a company in Guayaquil, identifying deficiencies associated with the insufficiency of machinery, tools and equipment for operations, in addition to personnel to operations, reducing the effectiveness of operations. A descriptive, field, basic and transversal methodology was applied, under a non-experimental design, with an analytical-synthetic method of qualitative approach, using as an instrument the process observation sheet and the interview with the area personnel, taking as it shows the boss and four workers. The results allowed us to identify that workers are unmotivated, which influences their performance, adding to this the lack of personal protective equipment and quality tools to carry out the assigned tasks, where even the dams that allow work to be carried out the boats appear deteriorated. The proposal shows an improved plan based on the 5S method with 13 actions aimed at ensuring that workers operate in an orderly, clean area that guarantees sufficient resources for their well-being, while they are motivated to achieve higher performance. , completing its tasks more quickly, estimating an investment of USD 8,555. The acquisition of an additional crane is also recommended, as long as it proves to be economically feasible for the business
