1. Introduction. Write a paragraph of 70 to 90 words that summarizes the context, scope
and/or analysis of the case. With it, the reader should have a clear idea of what was
developed in the work.
a) A flow diagram of the entire process of the Helados Zuli case, using the corresponding symbols.
Tip
To make your flowchart you can use Microsoft Visio.
For this, you have to double click on the Flowchart Box , which is on the right, when you do this, a window will open with
which you enter the program, once inside the left side, select shapes for basic flowcharts , to put together your flowchart,
you just have to click and hold on the figure you want and move it to the box.
If you do not have Microsoft Visio, you can use the Excel shapes, found in Insert .
Delete the flowchart box and make it in that space

c) Perform an analysis of the process, which integrates: the calculation of the time with
added value and the time of this of the general process, where you explain what it represents.
Additionally, describe two improvements you would make to the process and perform a new
calculation to estimate how much you would improve the percentage of time value added to
the process.
From the information presented in the process graph, it is possible to estimate the process time
and its production capacity of the system to make 200 liters of snow.
In this case, the total time to make snow and natural fruit popsicles is 625 minutes , while the
operations time was 390 minutes .
To obtain the calculation of time with added value we will use the following formula:
If we consider that a shift generally lasts 8 hours , we see that this system requires a minimum
of 10:41 hours , so in the ice cream parlor they work 145 more minutes , this considering how
To calculate the percentage of time spent adding value to a product, we will use the formula:
Here we can observe that 2/3 of the entire production cycle is used in the processes, which
indicates that its efficiency is good but not enough to consider the system the most efficient.

As a recommendation, I suggest that through this analysis the necessary measures be taken to
improve the production system, although I mentioned it in the previous section, everything is
better an economic investment expense and this in turn will bring benefits to the company.
In the analysis we saw that by making a couple of adjustments we were able to reduce the Total
Production Time by 25%; The percentage of process time invested was maintained at 61.6% in
operational activities which add value to the product.
In general, this activity helped me a lot to understand how an organization should be able to
make the most of all its resources and even more... that the best investment of any company is
Human Capital.
What I liked most about this activity was the development of the Process Chart and its Analysis,
this will undoubtedly help in my work because I will look for how to improve certain processes
and thus obtain better results.

what has already been seen in the studies that a large part of the improvements are in the changes to
