The company under study presents difficulties in the flow and management of its resources, which affect its performance and generate waste and cost overruns to its processes, because it does not have any method of standardization of production, nor an adequate organization of tools , materials and supplies. Thus, a productive improvement is proposed in the stamping area of the company, directly impacting on its economic benefits, its competitiveness and its positioning in the sector. Being this non-experimental and descriptive study, a diagnosis of the current production process was made, which allowed identifying as corrective action among others, the reduction of the time of orders not delivered on time represented by 60.54%, as well as the opportunities of improvement that determined the tools of Lean Manufacturing used in the design. Finally, the budget for the design of the suggested tools for improvement is presented.
