Analysis of production capacity planning to meet the consumer request using the Rough Cut Capacity Planning (RCCP) method in PT. Maccon Generasi Mandiri Makassar, Indonesia

Abstract

Maccon Generasi Mandiri Makassar company is one of a manufacturing company engaged in the production of light brick AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete). PT. Maccon Generasi Mandiri Makassar has a production capacity of 15024 〖 m〗^3 in a month or 180288 〖 m〗^3 in a year. However, with this capacity, the company is often unable to meet high consumer demand of 181450 〖 m〗^3 in a year due to less than optimal engine performance, a number of hours of work and an unbalanced workforce in the producing light brick of ACC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete). This requires the company to plan the optimal production of capacity in order to fulfill the consumer demand in a timely and appropriate amount so that the expected of company profits will be increased. The purpose of this research is to plan production capacity in the future based on the demand rate of the consumer using the Rough Cut Capacity Planning (RCCP) with the method is Bill of Labor Approach (BOLA) technique. Based on the data processing which has been done, the recommended made were a combination of engine additions and working time. This is realized to fulfill the lack of production capacity. For the January Period = 19872 hours/month, February = 19008 hours/month, March = 19872 hours/month, April = 19008 hours/month, May = 18144 hours/month, June = 18144 hours/month, July = 19872 hour/month, August = 18144 hours/month, September = 17280 hours/month, October = 18144 hours/month, November = 18144 hours/month, December = 17280 hours/month.
