Lead time is the duration between designing of a product and its production, or between ordering a product and receiving it. One of the car manufacturers in Indonesia has a rule that the maximum lead time for car maintenance in their workshop is 60 minutes. However, lead time in some of their workshops has exceeded the duration. In order to reduce the lead time of the car maintenance process, the workshop layout is optimized using three different layout models. The difference between these models lies in the location of the tire balancing and spooring stations. The spooring and balancing station of the first model is located at the entrance area of the workshop, while the second model is located in the middle area of the workshop. The spooring and balancing station of the third model is located close to the exit of the workshop. Data collected by measuring the time of car maintenance shows that the second model locating the tire balancing and spooring station in the middle area of the workshop be the shortest lead time of the three in the car maintenance process. © 2020 Author(s).
