Productivity Assessment of Herbicide 486 Using OREGON PRODUCTIVITY MATRIX

Abstract

This study implements Oregon Productivity Matrix as a methodology to assess production performance in one of the Fertilizer Company located in Gresik, Indonesia. It was identified that productivity performance the Company was declining. The company's main fertilizer product, Herbicide 486 had not been able to fulfil most of the production target which planned by the Production Control department. In order to evaluate productivity performance and determine the degree of success in delivering results against production plan objectives, Oregon Productivity Matrix method was proposed. The assessment result based on the six criteria of Productivity Performance shows that actual productivity cannot catch up with the goal of target productivity. Further, this research determines each criteria's weigh that influence the level of the Company's productivity. The results were 45.21% of raw material requirement, 22.44% of acceptance of raw materials, 15.17% of use of raw materials, 10.75% of packaging machine breakdown, 5.06% of defective products, and 1.37% of electricity consumption.
