Productivity Measurement to Monitor the Performance of Shrimp Cracker Companies

Abstract

High productivity over time for a company is important, but not enough. Ensuring that the company has a productivity index that gets better over time is more important. A better productivity index means that the company's productivity performance is getting better. That way the productivity index can be used as an indicator of success in making improvements to the Company's production process. This research will measure and analyze the productivity index of PT X in order to evaluate and improve the company's performance. By using the OMAX method, the results show that the productivity index in April 2023 was 106.7%. Furthermore, the month of May was -16.7%, June was 70.0%, July was 36.7%, August was 13.3% and September was 6.7%. And it was not in good condition. From the results of the analysis it turns out that the cause is the low production capacity of many defective products. Various improvements must be made by the Company, especially related to improving employee skills, improving the work environment, planned machine maintenance, and procuring standardized raw materials.
