CTP incorporates the time dimension, to the cost accumulation, and the area under the CTP curve is the Cost-Time Investment (CTI), which is a measure of the investment of resources on the manufacturing of the product. In this paper, a general overview of the CTP, its construction, applications and future research directions are presented.Ítem Modelamiento de Innovación Incremental y Radical a través de la Dinámica de Sistemas(Universidad Icesi, 2013-01-01) Niño Cáceres, Diana María; Arenas Guerrero, Fernando AntonioEste proyecto pretende ofrecer un modelo a través de la dinámica de sistemas, que describa una estructura genérica al integrar la innovación incremental y la innovación radical y que muestre la influencia que resulta al desarrollar ambas innovaciones específicamente en la industria farmacéuticaÍtem Developing student outcomes in real-world learning experiences: The case of solar decathlon in Latin America(American Society for Engineering Education, 2016-06-26) Ortegon Mosquera, KatherineEngineering students face a future in which professional skills (e.g., working in multidisciplinary teams, ethics, and communicate effectively) will be equally important as hard skills (e.g., design systems and solve technical problems). However, the development and assessment of these skills by the time of graduation is still a challenge for higher education institutions. In ABET terms, the student outcomes describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by the end of their undergraduate program. Thus, an ABET outcome might include a set of several skills. One strategy for developing these professional and hard skills is to expose engineering students to hands-on, real-world experiences. In this paper, a full analysis of how a multidisciplinary competition like the Solar Decathlon can contribute to the simultaneous development of various student outcomes is presented. The Solar Decathlon (SD) competition is an initiative of the U.S Department of Energy that challenges students to design, build, and operate sustainable, solar-powered, and affordable houses. A survey of all members of the team composed of students from the Universidad Icesi and the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana Cali participating in the Solar Decathlon for Latin America & Caribbean 2015 was carried out three times during the competition: at the beginning stage, in the middle of the project, and at the end of the competition. The goal was to analyze the attainment of student outcomes and their development over time. This team was comprised of 40 students from eight professional disciplines (including four industrial engineering students) for more than a year. Furthermore, this study presents how the interdisciplinary composition of the team evolved throughout the development of the project in order to fulfill the requirements of the competition. The role and participation of industrial engineers in this type of project was also examined as well as the primary personal and professional challenges experienced by the participants. Findings suggest that working and communicating effectively with students from other disciplines (i.e., multidisciplinary teaming) were among the main professional challenges students faced during the project. Likewise, respect for other people's perspectives and different paces of work between disciplines were the most common personal challenges. Lessons learned and recommendations for future competitors (institutions and students) are also presented.Ítem Modelo de calidad para buenas prácticas de manufactura en el manejo de dispositivos médicos de un solo uso para una institución salud nivel III(Universidad Icesi, 2010-01-01) Aristizábal Arcila, Alexánder; Cancelado Carretero, Helena MaríaEl reuso de dispositivos médicos de un solo uso en el mundo es una práctica cada vez más frecuente y consiste básicamente en la utilización de procesos de limpieza, desinfección y esterilización a los dispositivos médicos de un solo uso. En el sistema de salud el uso de dispositivos médicos es muy importante, ya que son estos los responsables de los procedimientos clínicos que hoy conocemos como: tratamientos para curar las enfermedades, intervenciones quirúrgicas, diagnostico, tratamientos clínicos entre otros. Es por esto que la utilización de estos dispositivos es tan relevante para la preservación de la seguridad del paciente.Ítem How to Foresee and Measure the Real Economic Impact of a Lean Manufacturing Implementation(Springer Heidelberg, 2013-06-25) Manotas, Diego F.The academic and industrial worlds seem to agree in the convenience of implementing Lean Manufacturing. Arguments to highlight the benefits of implementing Lean usually include testimonials from successful companies, published case studies, even conference presentations, plant tours, and television programs. It is not easy to foresee the impact of a Lean implementation in strictly monetary terms. Lean is an operational philosophy that does more than saving money; it prepares companies for sustained improvement and creates disciplines and operational capabilities, yet it could be argued that these capabilities are hard to value and quantify. In this paper, we propose a flowchart-type methodology to decide if a change in a procedure, in the use of tangible resources or in the use of time brought about by the implementation of a Lean Manufacturing technique will have a measurable economic impact. The decision maker will need to know the specific circumstances of the production system, but we believe he will be able to predict the economic impact of a Lean implementation (or to evaluate the results of an ongoing Lean project) with more precision, to build a stronger and more comprehensible business case and convince upper management of the real benefits of Lean.Ítem Integrated curriculum design for an industrial engineering undergraduate program in Latin America(American Society for Engineering Education, 2016-06-26) Burbano Collazos, AngelicaThe Industrial Engineering Department at Universidad Icesi led a systematic review of the Industrial Engineering (IE) undergraduate program curriculum. Universidad Icesi at Cali, Colombia is a private institution recognized among the best universities in the country. The curriculum review and design was conceived as part of the IE undergraduate program's continuous improvement process and took into consideration the fundamental principles supporting the institution's educational project or PEI (Proyecto Educativo Institucional), the principles established by CDIO (Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate) approach and the student outcomes defined by ABET. In this paper, the proposed IE integrated curriculum is presented. The curriculum allows for the development of the skills defined in the recent graduating student profile, skills that are mapped to student outcomes (a-k). Assessment results at the course and program levels are presented, as well as the consolidation of the program's continuous improvement process.Ítem Modelo de benchmarking de la cadena de abastecimiento para Pymes manufactureras(Universidad Icesi, 2002-07-01) Burbano Collazos, Angélica; Beltrán Amador, AlfredoThe benchmarking model for the supply chain of small and medium-sized manufacturers provides a handy guide for improving the logistics of their production processes. This article covers both the development of the model and the main results of its implementation in a sample of food processing companies in the City of Cali, surveyed by PRODES (a sector development program). The results of this study, obtained through trial applications of the model, provide guidelines both for ongoing research and for the future application of the model to other sectors. The model is based on the results of a study titled «Proposal for the Development of Integrated Logistical Systems for Small and Medium Enterprises», undertaken by the authors in furtherance of a Master’s Degree in Business Administration, in agreement with Tulane UniversityÍtem Desarrollo de una metodología de implementación de los conceptos de TOC (Teoría de restricciones), para empresas colombianas(Universidad Icesi, 2003-04-01) Rivera Cadavid, Leonardo; Ortegón Mosquera, Katherine; González Gómez, José ArturoThe Theory of Constraints (TOC) is a managerial thought system that has been successfully applied in may companies around the world. However, implementation cases in colombian Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) are not many and not well documented. It follows that an implementation protocol has not been formalized yet. Researching through different information sources and doing pilot work in two plastics manufacturing SMEs sufficient insight was gained to propose a methodology that starts by diagnosing the current state of the company, satisfying some requirements prior to TOC implementation and the implementation process itself. As a conclusion, it was found that before undertaking any improvement process it is necessary to “clean up the house first”: To achieve clarity in basic issues of organization, operation and quality, to be able to guarantee the efectiveness and sustainability of any improvements attained.Ítem Propuesta de mejora de procesos y procedimientos en la zona de trabajo de felinos del zoológico de Cali(Universidad Icesi, 2012-01-01) Torres Quintero, Sory Carola; Torres Quintero, Sory Carola (Asesor Tesis/Trabajos de Grado)El Zoológico de Cali es una organización concientizada por el mejoramiento continuo en cada uno de sus procesos y con la necesidad de realizar un análisis en el área de felinos, empezando con la zona de Tigres, ya que ha llevado a cabo cambios en los últimos meses que pueden afectar tanto al animal como a los clientes internos y externos.
