Abstract

Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems - Philippines Inc. (MHPS-PHL) designs and manufactures Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG), Power Boilers, and Industrial Boilers in the Philippines. This study was conducted on the Panel Assembly of the Operations Division where the overall process of manufacturing water wall panels for boilers occur. From January to September, 2015, the panel assembly has exceeded its budget man-hours by 58% resulting in an additional cost of 17.3 million pesos. Analysis reveals that the standard time used was inaccurate and 28% of the man-hours are used for non-value adding activities. Actions and controls were proposed to eliminated the said causes of excess man hours. This includes revision of the standard times used as baseline for determining budget man-hours. In addition, an Excel based computation system was also designed and recommended to be used for future projects of the company. If implemented, NVAs will be reduced to at most 3.63% and excess man-hours will be reduced from 58% to 7.83%.
