Impacto do Systematic Layout Planning – SLP nas indústrias

Abstract

Small adjustments in equipment positioning can influence the flow of materials and people, affecting costs and production efficiency. An inadequate physical layout leads to unnecessary movements, long and confusing flows, resulting in losses and queues. The layout can be applied from the initial design to redesigns and manufacturing operations, across various areas and sectors of the industry. In this sense, Systematic Layout Planning - SLP emerges as a systematic method for developing and planning layout and physical arrangement projects. Considering the improvements in organizational performance, it is relevant to analyze the implementation of SLP in different types of industries, sectors, and products. A Systematic Literature Review - SLR was conducted, following PRISMA guidelines, to assess the impact of Systematic Layout Planning in the industrial sector. Ultimately, 17 documents were selected to form the bibliographic portfolio. The results reveal that the main improvements include a reduction in movements and distances (64.71%), followed by cost reduction (23.53%), and time reduction (17.65%). These data reflect the frequency with which the benefits were reported in scientific studies and suggest a consequent effect of improvements in the industrial process.
