Resumen

Logistics operators face various problems, the most common being the inadequate distribution of the operations yard. This is reflected in international logistics indexes, in which Peru ranks as one of the last countries. The company studied herein presents a problem of high reprocessing levels in the operations yard, which affects the level of service offered to customers. This study proposes the application of industrial engineering tools, such as systematic layout planning, to reduce reprocessing, increase profits. The proposed tool has been validated via simulation using the Arena software.
