| Abstract | This research aimed to study and improve the picking process in the automotive parts warehouse by analyzing the non-value-added work steps and applying the ECRS technique to reduce the picking time. From studying the picking process in the automotive parts warehouse using the Activity Flow Process Chart and analyzing the problem using the Fishbone Diagram theory, it was found that the picking process was not efficient enough because there was still redundant work, resulting in a delay in picking time and a longer lead time in each order. Therefore, the researcher applied the ECRS technique to improve the working process in the non-value-added activities by eliminating unnecessary steps (Eliminate) and rearranging the work steps (Rearrange) appropriately. From the improvement results, the picking time could be reduced from the original picking time of 1,674 seconds or 27.54 minutes per order to only 168 seconds or 2.48 minutes per order, accounting for 10.04 percent, which made the picking process more flexible and efficient. |
