UPRM INVOLVEMENT and OBSERVATIONS Pedro Resto Erick & Melanie Gonzalez November 1st, 2023
Agenda Agenda UPRM Team Logistics Quality Management System (L-QMS) IIoT as a Complement to L-QMS Dashboard Effectiveness Path Forward Q&A
UPRM Team UPRM Team InIn 4079 (Capstone Project) offered every semester InIn 5006 (Systems Engineering) offered in Fall 2023 InIn 4996 (Special Topics) offered based on needs Dr. Pedro Resto, professor of Industrial Engineering
L-QMS Logistics Quality Management System (L L- -QMS QMS) Focus: L-QMS for the handling of products requiring cold temperature Who owns the system (external to plants) DDEC, PRMA, UPRM Who identifies the resources to be certified (trucking mgmt/owners & truckers; highly frequent changes) Mfg plants Who maintains the roster of certified resources - UPRM Who keeps documentation updated - UPRM Who develops & offers training and certification - UPRM How is training offered Web-based / videos
IIoT as a Complement to L IIoT as a Complement to L- -QMS QMS Even though IATA reports huge losses due to temperature excursions in healthcare ( USD 35B), how much can be linked to PR shipments? Let s monitor temperature and activate alarms when temperature variations occur. Let s keep track of temperature violations by carrier to request corrective actions from offenders.
Dashboard Dashboard Effectiveness Effectiveness
Dashboard Effectiveness Dashboard Effectiveness Need to: Define relevant KPI s (to focus on improvement). Isolate relevant inbound and outbound activity. Define transshipment tactics (e.g. Asia Alaska, Alaska US) PR inbound tactics (e.g. ? BQN, BQN LATAM). PR outbound tactics (SJU ?, BQN ?) How can plants collaborate/coordinate in inbound and outbound activities so that we can increase direct flights?
Possible capstone projects (for next semester) Path Forward Path Forward Team for L-QMS & IIoT definition Team for Dashboard tactics definition L-QMS deployment IIoT solution selection Inbound and outbound tactics deployment Cold storage building space availability analysis
Any Questions? Any Questions? If we keep doing the same things, we should NOT expect different results! If we don t improve, PR will continue losing competitiveness
