Abstract

Hoshin kanri is a strategic tool used to help factory management achieve set objectives and improve the level of communication between workers and management. It can also help the factory achieve the desired productivity. The implementation method is to use 7 types of policies that have been set by the researchers before. All of these elements that are set are standards where they are suitable to be applied in any type of industry. The use of catalysts such as PDCA and catchball can help the use of the Hohsin kanri method more effectively. CTRM, which is a composite-based aircraft component manufacturing company located in Melaka, has been selected as the research field company for this project. This project revolves around the application of Hoshin kanri strategy in the aero composites industry with specific reference to the CTRM factory. Relevant information about management practices in this factory will be taken and collected. Then, the information obtained will be analyzed using the "framework" method of analysis. Here, criteria and policies related to hoshin kanri will be identified and listed in the "framework" analysis table. This aims to analyze whether CTRM has used elements of Hoshin kanri in their management practices over the years or not. After that, the S.W.O.T analysis method will be used to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that exist in CTRM. A new model of the new hoshin kanri will be released based on the research that has been done where this model is built based on the information obtained in this study. The model will be proposed to the factory management to get their views on the built hoshin kanri model. Overall, this study will show the results of a comprehensive understanding of hoshin kanri policy and the methods used by the aero composite manufacturing industry to succeed in company objectives and development as well as model recommendations based on hoshin kanri criteria and policy.
