The industry is currently facing a multitude of challenges on production lines that must be systematically addressed in order to improve quality and productivity. One commonly utilized methodology by companies is DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control), which has been proven effective through various case studies and is now considered a standard problem-solving approach. However, existing books on DMAIC often focus solely on defining concepts and tools, as well as showcasing case studies separately. This book consolidates all of these aspects into a single, user-friendly resource.

DMAIC: Concepts, Tools, and Industrial Applications offers both theoretical and practical insights into the DMAIC methodology. It sequentially presents all stages of DMAIC, outlining activities, data collection, and analysis processes. By integrating DMAIC concepts, tools, and case studies, this book provides industry professionals with a comprehensive resource. Real-world case studies from companies that have successfully implemented DMAIC to enhance production processes are showcased, offering valuable insights and practical examples.

This book serves as a valuable resource for professionals, students, and individuals responsible for improving industrial production systems. By consolidating theory, tools, and case studies into a single book, readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of DMAIC and its application in industry.

This book reports the most recent, advanced, successful, and real applications of ergonomics in order to improve the human well-being and performance in a short term, as well as the organizational performance in a long term. The book is organized as follows:

Physical Ergonomics. This section reports case studies where physical risk factors are presented in the workplace, such as physical risk factors including uncomfortable body postures, repetitive movements, force application, manual material handling, and physical environmental conditions. In addition, case studies must report applications from physical ergonomics methods, for instance, RULA, REBA, OWAS, NIOSH, JSI, Suzane Rodgers, ERIN, among others.

Macro-ergonomics. This section is focused on the analysis, design, and evaluation of work systems. It reports case studies where risk factors are beyond a specific workstation. These risk factors may include supervision styles, teamwork management, task variety, social relationships, organizational culture, organizational communication, technology, work schedules, and motivation, among others. In addition, case studies report the application of macro-ergonomic methods, such as MOQS, focus group, participatory ergonomics, HITOP, MAS, and MEAD, among others.

This book examines different innovations in worldwide agricultural-systems including the applications of artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT) and features of machine learning (ML) for the benefits of the farm-community. Specifically, it examines the use of agricultural equipment and IoT to reduce physical stress; innovative equipment that measure and reduce mental work load; and innovative techniques to help with employee safety. Featuring case studies and future implications, this book is an excellent guide for academics and researchers in the agri-sector.

This book presents algorithms and computational applications integrated in software that are being applied in the industry. It shows how companies using these tools are more competitive and efficient in the use and resources management. The book is organized in three sections, depending on the supply chain stage: procurement, including contact with costumers and product design; Production process, including relationship with suppliers and among departments; and Distribution, including logistics and transportation.  

This book provides a conceptual description of the PDCA cycle and the tools that support it. A brief literature review is given for each tool, indicating the timeline according to Scopus, the main areas in which they are applied, the main authors and the journals that most publish on these topics. It reports three industrial applications, one focusing on cost reduction, the second on optimizing a manufacturing company''s raw material receiving process, and the third one on eliminating waste and increasing performance.
