Abstract(s)
An important method related to Lean strategies is Hoshin Kanri which combines operation and strategic management in order to solve both short and long-term problems in companies. Time studies are an effective way in order to apply this method. This paper regards to literature review in time studies of a process. In the literature review, two approaches of defining a sample size are presented: statistical analysis and conventional guide’s method, both currently used in some companies. Future analysis of the data collected in a company’s production line is devoted to verify whether or not the sample size is adequate, using both methods presented in this work.
