Análisis y propuesta de mejora continua en los procesos de transporte de carga pesada en la empresa SEDEMI Servicios de Mecánica Industrial Diseño Construcción y Montaje S.C.C.

Abstract

Abstract: Heavy cargo transportation is a key process within the logistics management of industrial companies due to its direct influence on operating costs, delivery times, and organizational efficiency. SEDEMI Servicios de Mecánica Industrial Diseño Construcción y Montaje S.C.C. develops infrastructure projects ranging from design and engineering to fabrication and assembly, providing comprehensive services from engineering to final execution for sectors such as energy, industry, oil & gas, and telecommunications, which require proper planning and control of the transportation of heavy and oversized materials and equipment. However, deficiencies are identified in process standardization, operational planning, and performance control. The objective of this degree project is to analyze the current heavy cargo transportation processes at SEDEMI and propose a continuous improvement approach aimed at optimizing operational efficiency, reducing logistics costs, and improving the level of service. The research follows a descriptive and propositional approach, using techniques such as the collection of information from performance indicators and drivers. As a result, a proposal is presented to strengthen transportation management and logistics decision-making within the company.
