Abstract

The objective of this article is to present a methodology for improvement of the distribution of plants in organizations, under a semi-continuous solution approach, quantitative and qualitative aspects in multi-criteria environments. The proposed methodology contains six phases that include the definition of the problem, the generation of alternatives for the distribution of the plant with qualitative techniques such as SLP and quantitative ones such as CRAFT and QAP, and the selection of the most appropriate alternative with the implementation of TOPSIS. The methodology was implemented in a company that manufactures metal furniture and it was found that, after performing a sensitivity analysis in the weights of the criteria, the best result, the robustness in the different levels, is the second correct solution with CRAFT, of the methodology, is easy to implement and presents a significant improvement in the performance of the company.
