Improvement of the arrangement and traceability of raw material in the warehouse

Diplomsko delo obravnava proces generiranja, načrtovanja in implementiranja sprememb z namenom niţanja proizvodnih stroškov in zagotavljanja sledljivosti toka materiala v skladišču. Naloga prikazuje postopek popisa in analize začetnega stanja skladišča, pregled pomembnejše literature na obravnavanem področju z namenom izbire ustreznih metod generiranja in vrednotenja idej, izmed katerih sta se metodi brainwritting in metoda primerjave parov izkazali kot najprimernejši. Sledila je faza implementacije in sestavljanja modelov, ki so sluţili kot metoda za izvedbo sprememb skladišča. Med izbiranjem ustreznega modela smo bili pozorni, da smo upoštevali prostorske, finančne in časovne omejitve določene pred začetkom projekta. Izbrani model omogoča izbiro med različnimi tehnologijami sledljivosti materiala v skladišču, izmed katerih smo se odločili za označevanje s črtno kodo. Sledila je analiza stanja izboljšane zasnove skladišča. Rezultate stanja novega skladišča smo primerjali z rezultati stanja izhodiščnega skladišča. Primerjava je pokazala, da je bila implementacija izbranega modela ekonomsko upravičena. Dosegli smo krajše čase procesov urejanja in posledično niţje stroške skladiščenja ter bolj optimalen materialni tok proizvodnega procesaThe thesis covers the process of generating, planning and implementing changes with the goal of reducing production costs and ensuring the traceability of the flow of material in the warehouse. The thesis depicts the inventory analysis and the analysis of the initial state of the storage area, a review of the important literature in the field, with the goal of selecting the most appropriate methods for the generation and evaluation of ideas, of which the brainwritting method, and the pairwise comparison method proved to be the most appropriate. Following was the phase of implementation and creation of models that served as a method for carrying out changes in the storage facility. When selecting the appropriate model, we took into account the spatial, financial and time constraints set before the start of the project. The chosen model allows the choice between different technologies for the traceability of the materials in the storage facility, of which we have chosen bar-code labelling. The analysis of the improved state followed. We compared the results of the new storage facility with the results of the original state. The comparison showed that the implementation of the chosen model was economically justified. We have achieved shorter times of material regulation and, consequently, lower storage costs and a more optimal material flow in the production process
