This thesis investigates the various methodologies and intricacies involved in the operation of the shopfloor in a manufacturing company. The study focuses on Burkle Hungary kft, and their unique approach to production and tackling various operational and technical challenges involved in maintaining a well-functioning production line, as well as developing on the current ones. The importance of understanding the broad picture of the shopfloor and how it operates cannot be over-emphasized, as this dictates the smooth flow of activity across the entire production and monitors the quality and efficiency of the current processes. An in-depth analysis of the Quality, Cost, Delivery, Safety and Morale (QCDSM) technique, as used by the manufacturing company is the cornerstone of this research, along with various underlying principles and methodologies associated with shopfloor-management. A series of observational studies and analysis of company material was conducted, coupled with a comprehensive review of the relevant literature in the field of production, management and engineering processes. The benefits of the analysis of the shop floor process lies in having a much more holistic view of how the production line works, and in so doing, an improved material flow, as well as information flow occurs on the shopfloor, losses are uncovered quickly and analysis of productivity and efficacy with the help of visual management tools, is made simple, direct and effective. Information flow is crucial in ensuring operations are run smoothly, this flow of information and material bridges the gap between technicians and managers, this research shows how effective information flow coupled with the various lean techniques and methodologies, can lead to an improved and more efficient production line.
