Análise da integração de inteligência artificial com metodologias Lean

The implementation of lean techniques in the Portuguese Air Force, specifically in the F-16 supply chain, was a success due to the reduction in the budget of €1.5M to support the F-16 weapons system. Since 2010, the maintenance of F-16 aircraft at Air Base No. 5, started to use the Kanban system, which led to an optimization in repair processes. Due to a digitalization of processes, this project aims to study the incorporation of artificial intelligence in lean techniques. According to F-16 supply chain, this project divides in three steps. The first one is about stock leveling to obtain a greater knowledge of the behavior of materials through the definition of key performance indicators. The second and third step are defined by creation of a control dashboard with artificial intelligence. Finally, it's defined an action plan for the implementation of the 5S methodology, which is also incorporated with artificial intelligence.
