From the results of evaluation of LPS in May 2011, Takt Production showed the lowest criteria, in order to solve this problem one of the seven QC tools are used, next by used CFMEA and FMEA for determined the potential of the root causes why the production is the lowest criteria. By obtaining these potentials occur this problem, suggestions for improving these criteria are shown. By taking one of the products produced Hicom Teck See, a case study have been done. For this case study, a visits to Hicom Teck See have been done, all data on these products is taken to produce a proposal.
