| dc.description.abstract | MAN Truck and Bus AG is a leading international provider of commercial vehicles as well as well-known producers of diesel and natural-gas engines. This report focuses on the products manufactured in MAN Nuremberg assembly plant, which produces a wide variety of engines designed and developed for different applications for customer needs. As any other company in the industry, MAN has high expenses while producing their engines. In response for this need, the PKO+ project was born. This project follows the VE ideology of improving the value of the goods or products by reducing the cost of the raw material, seeking of low cost suppliers, optimizing the product with or without customer perception, supply chain optimization, etc. VE techniques have been applied to coordinate properly the communication between the different departments involved in this project. The basics of this project and the starting process can be found in this report. These foundations consist of generating a support team, establishing long term targets, and processes to achieve such targets. At the end, the results from period January 1st 2019 to August 1st 2019 are shown in this report. | pt_PT |
