The main problem faced by HEA is difficulties to bring the graduation robes to
Laman Perdana due to the trolley they used is too big and heavy. It also cannot enter
the elevator in BKBA building because that elevator size is too small. The graduation
robes were stored on the second floor. So, they have to bring the graduation robes
from that floor to ground floor and put it on the trolley. For one trip it only supported
100 pieces of graduation robes and time taken for one trip is too long, which is 45
minutes to 1 hour. Moreover, lot of manpower were used to bring the graduation
robes, usually four persons for one trip and the process halted during rainy day.
By using trolley with the right way, it can help people to reduce the risk of
having back injuries and other health problems due to lift and carry heavy loads. The
process development is begun from designing the shape of trolley by considering the
functions as well. In order to produce user friendly product that is suitable to the
customer, the ergonomic factor which involves the measurement process before
cutting the material and before joining them together is taken into consideration. New
concept of the trolley is required to improve its durability and functions.
