Abstract
A compatible operators’ allocation is one way to improve the productivity of a manufacturing. With a good operators’ allocation, the percentage of operators’ idle time can be minimized. By the way, the production standard time is needed to determine the production capacity, in order to arrange a compatible operators allocation.The problem that occurred at PT X is the production capacity or target, which used as reference for scheduling the packing process, is determined based on company’s experiences. So, the production standard time and capacity must be improved to be more valid and appropriate. Besides that, the compatible operators’ allocation is needed. It is because most of the operators at these divisions were outsourcing. So it is important to know the suitable number of operators that must be recruited for a certain time. The same problem also occured at the supporting material warehouse. The objective of this research is to analyzes those problem and gives some improvement suggestions. The methods that are used to analyze are Stopwatch Time Study, Work Sampling, and Line Balancing.The results of this project are the company knows the standard time and capacity that can be used as a reference to set a daily production target, a better operators’ allocation, and there are some suggestions that may improve their productivity. Keywords: productivity, standard time, operators’ allocation.
