Optimización del Tiempo en Órdenes de Compra

Abstract

he document will present the improvement proposal developed during the professional internship at Belisario S.A.S, a Colombian firm specialized in labor law and occupational safety. The project will focus on optimizing and automating the manual process of generating purchase orders for medical examinations, which currently takes between 4 and 5 minutes per record and causes delays in supplier payments. The proposal will use the Selenium program, integrated with Excel macros, to reduce the processing time to 1–2 minutes per order, minimizing human errors and improving the future efficiency of the administrative area. The plan will address the weaknesses identified in the SWOT analysis, such as the lack of automation and reliance on repetitive manual processes. Its implementation would not only streamline the management of purchase orders but also strengthen supplier relationships by ensuring timely payments. In addition, the solution could become scalable, allowing its adaptation to other areas of the organization that handle massive and repetitive tasks, thus boosting productivity. As a result, automation with Selenium will demonstrate a positive impact on time reduction, data accuracy, and the redistribution of staff tasks toward strategic activities within the area. The project will reflect the application of knowledge in international business, aligning with Belisario S.A.S’s objectives in innovation and compliance with international standards. Process optimization for competitiveness.
