Inventory management techniques in the footwear factories of the Sentinel without relay

Abstract

Inventory management is important within companies because it allows an adequate balance of the stocks of raw material products in order to avoid the loss of customers. The objective of this article is to apply an inventory management system using the techniques (QEP - JIT) for the process of acquisition of raw materials and materials in the manufacture of footwear. The methodology had a quantitative approach of experimental descriptive scope, since it was applied to the study of inventory models: the optimal quantity of order, just in time and its adaptation in the footwear industry of the city of Hua- keels in order to implement the models in the production systems of the factories and thereby determine the impact on the inventory system; A sample of thirty-four companies that were selected for convenience was used. The results show that the minimum stock with which they are managed if it supplies the demand considering the level of production, taking into account that most manufacturers manage their inventories empirically, therefore, they do not have a control of the products and materials that enter and leave the factory, generating mismanagement of capital, so they are willing to implement a model in order to improve their production process.
