Factibilidad de la implementación del Modelo de Wilson para la gestión de inventarios de la empresa Costuras y Bordados S.A.

Abstract

This research project was made to measure the feasibility of the implementaion of Wilson´s Model for the inventory managment of the company Costuras y Bordados S.A. To accomplish this, the information about the initial situation and the current inventory management was collected. This data was used to determine the operational cycle of each product line and the main raw materials that were needed for the manufacture process. Once the information was obtained, the impact of the Wilson´s Model implementation was evaluated when applying it for the inventory management of each product line. Through this study it was observed that the model could be applied into the production lines of the company since, it was able to determine the optimum quantities that the firm should purchase from its suppliers to minimize its costs. Finally, a comparison between the costs before and after the application of Wilson´s Model was made, and it revealed positive results for the company.
