The thesis describes the analysis and design performed in the composites production plant of Ferrari Formula 1 team about the application of a kit preparation process as a logistic concept to provide materials directly at each operator’s workstation. Kits are designed to contain all the materials required for manufacturing in a selected working day, being prepared by dedicated logistic operators in advance and made available to the operators’ workstations. The introduced process is included in the wider framework of lean manufacturing: it targets operators’ time and movement wastes by optimizing material handling, eliminating non value-adding activities and standardizing as much as possible recurrent situations impacting on the daily activity of the shop floor.
