Proposal of a Production System Management Model for Food Industries With Raw Material Benefit Process

Abstract

This article aims to propose an adapted artifact for managing the production system for food industries with the process of processing raw materials. To fulfill this objective, the Design Science Research (DSR) research method was used to develop a model that can help with the difficulties of managing and integrating processes in productive industries and that encompasses specific needs not covered by existing generic models. For the development of the study, the concepts were based on important theoretical references in this segment, such as Production Planning and Control (PCP), Theory of Constraints (TOC), and Integrated Management System (ERP), in addition to the comparative analysis between the model's global management: S&OP and SCOR. The first proposed version of the model was prepared and later approved by five specialists in the areas of management, systems, production, and logistics, through adjustments. The model developed is called PSM (Productive System Management) and its structure is divided into six main stages: Planning, Acquisition, Production and Quality Control, Distribution, Evaluation and Monitoring, and Communication. This artifact also presents its insertion and cycle environment, the sub-processes and activities, the integration of sectors, and the process and information flows.

Keywords: Management. Planning. Production system. Supply chain. Processes.
