In today's economic world, competitiveness is characterized by great agitation and extreme conflict. This disturbed environment has compelled firms to renew themselves by implementing various approaches such as Agile, Lean, TPM, TQM, and so on, to remain competitive in the market and achieve their goals successfully. This research is focusing on the production performance of the stamping process in Malaysia’s automotive industry. Most of the changeover or setup time reductions are governed or associated with Shingo’s Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED) method, which suggests the conversion of internal setup operations to external operations. SMED has been initiated by most of the companies but failed to implement it. Thus, what is observed and evidenced in data collected from industry players is that an unacceptably long time is taken in the die/tooling change process, which grossly affects the planned production output. The most significant direct impact of this situation on the industry is the increase in operating costs due to additional time taken to meet the planned production output. Therefore, this research aims to establish a new framework that can improve the efficiency of the die changeover process, which could lower the overall production cost, which could partially transfer the savings to the consumers. The study was conducted in few stages first, data collection correlates with the automotive stamping premise to create a simulation procedure.
