Implementation of work standardization to improve the fuel efficiency ratio in an SMB in the hydrocarbon transportation sector

In the Peruvian context, the operating costs associated with the transportation of hydrocarbons represent a significant challenge for SMEs in the transportation sector, especially due to high fuel consumption. According to the Ministry of Energy and Mines (Minem,2023), land transportation activity increased by 6.7% in the last year, which highlights the need to implement strategies that optimize distribution efficiency. This research proposes an improvement model based on three key tools: Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), telemetry for efficient fleet management and work standardization, with the objective of reducing fuel consumption and travel time in logistics routes. The methodology applied is descriptive and quantitative, framed in a continuous improvement model. The results obtained validate the effectiveness of the model through simulations and field tests, achieving a 7.7% reduction in fuel consumption per vehicle and a 17.9% reduction in total route time on the Lima - Arequipa route and vice versa. These findings highlight the model's potential to increase the competitiveness and operational sustainability of companies in the sector.
