Abstract

As the size and complexity of mining equipment grow, the impact of equipment failure becomes increasingly critical, often leading to costly downtime and production delays. Mining equipment performance depends on several factors, including equipment reliability, the operating environment, maintenance efficiency, operating processes, and the technical expertise of the personnel. Improving equipment reliability is essential to address these challenges, and one effective approach is to reduce the mean time to repair (MTTR), which significantly affects equipment availability.  This study presents a case study on reducing the MTTR of the starter motor for coal mining equipment using the Lean Six Sigma method. Lean Six Sigma combines the principles of lean manufacturing and Six Sigma to identify inefficiencies and reduce variability. The findings reveal a substantial reduction in MTTR from 110 minutes to 10 minutes. Statistical analysis using a two-sample t-test confirms the significance of the improvement, with the process capability index (cpk) increasing from -2.94 to 6.96. This case study demonstrates the potential of Lean Six Sigma to address critical maintenance challenges, improve operational efficiency, and enhance equipment reliability in the mining sector.

Abstract

Performance is one the critical aspect in every company or business that needs to be considered. However, a common issue encountered is that companies often fail to accurately assess their business performance. Inaccurate performance measurements result in a lack of continuous improvement in productivity and instead negatively impact the overall performance quality, thereby influencing revenue growth. This research focuses on key performance indicators (KPIs) that deviate from the standards set by KPUD 'Tani Wilis'. Consequently, alternative performance measurement approaches, such as identifying indicators using the performance Prism and evaluating performance through the objective matrix, are necessary. The results indicate that 68% of the indicators across various dimensions are in good condition, while 32% are below standard, with the required threshold set at 75% for good performance. The primary challenges identified include maintaining service quality for customers and ensuring supply delivery accuracy. The proposed solutions involve implementing robust control and monitoring systems focused on customer service quality, with dedicated supervisors or quality control experts overseeing the process.

Abstract

Population expansion, urbanization, economic development, pollution, and climate change are all contributing factors to the growing global problem of water shortage. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are in danger of being achieved because of this dilemma, particularly SDGs 6 and 11 on clean water and sanitation and sustainable cities, respectively. Only 65.9% of Jakarta's population has access to potable water, and water stress levels range from 40 to 80%. The government is planning a wastewater treatment system (SPALD-T) to recycle household wastewater and produce clean water in order to address this issue. TB. Simatupang's Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) still faces obstacles in adopting wastewater reuse, nonetheless.  In Indonesia, wastewater recycling has received little attention, with the majority of studies concentrating on technical concerns rather than sustainability considerations. In contrast, technologies such as desalination and rainfall harvesting are being investigated worldwide. The objective of this research is to examine the technical and non-technical elements that affect wastewater recycling's effectiveness for the generation of sustainable clean water. The results will offer crucial information to help Perumda Paljaya create policies that will effectively utilize wastewater, which will help Jakarta accomplish its sustainable development goals more broadly.
