Abstract
Advancing into Industry 4.0, system is set up for the communication in the shop floor of the manufacturing industry. At current stage, the fact that involvement of human power in the production environment is a must could not be denied. That is why the talent of the human power shall be managed systematically to increase the efficiency. This paper involves a case study conducted in a company of the healthcare industry. It only includes operators from the shop floor. The objective of this case study is to develop a systematic framework to digitalize operator skill competency by developing a database management system. It is also significant to facilitate capacity planning by using the database management system developed as a ‘searching tool’. Apart from that, acquiring insights into operator competency through data mining tool shall not be neglected. This paper involves a comprehensive development scheme of a relational database to structurally store operator skill levels for different production stages. Specifically, the production flow, steps and categorization of skills were formally defined and linked. Interfaces were constructed for input of information as well as result presentation, fitting to the needs of the company in decision-making. The main finding of this paper is utilization of the developed database management system to digitalize the operator skill competency and perform capacity planning. As human power in the production are considerably notable in a manufacturing�based company, the systematic planning of operator appointment would optimize the operation of the shop floor. The practical contribution to the company is that the database management system is readily used by related personnel in capacity planning of the operators. The limitation of this database management system is some desired presentation method of information cannot be achieved. As this database management system is limited to the shop floor operators, the competency of every worker from the company could be included in the future to further improve this database management system.
