Propuesta para la mejora del sistema de trazabilidad en el área de operaciones, sección corrales porcinos en el frigorífico Guadalupe SAS

Abstract

This internship work carried out at the Guadalupe SAS meat packing plant in the city of Bogotá, develops the proposal for the improvement of the traceability system in the pig pen section operations area. For this purpose, direct observation is developed on the corrals section of the meat packing plant, which shows the development of the reception activity (documentary and material), handling, marking, weighing and storage of pigs during their entry and stay in the facilities of the corrals, steps that precede the delivery of the pigs to the processing plant. From the development of this internship, the failures that occur in different processes in the pig pens are identified, where the lack of traceability in the processing plant stands out, as well as the operational factors that affect the loss of livestock that results in extra costs for the organization. Thus, actions of procedural and organizational order are defined to address the problems identified and to reduce the impact on the organization.
