Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By studying this chapter, you should be able to… 21-1 Understand how operations enhance a small company’s competitiveness. 21-2 Discuss the nature of the operations process for both products and services. 21-3 Identify ways to control inventory and minimize inventory costs. 21-4 Recognize the contributions of operations management to product and service quality. 21-5 Explain the importance of purchasing and the nature of key purchasing policies. 21-6 Describe lean production and synchronous management, and discuss their importance to operations management in small businesses.
3.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-1 COMPETING WITH OPERATIONS • Operations – The processes used to create and deliver a product or service. • Companies gain power to the degree that they excel in satisfying customer needs and wants more precisely and/or efficiently than their competitors. • To be successful, a company’s operations must involve all of the activities required to create value for customers and earn their dollars. • Operations management – The planning and control of a conversion process that includes turning inputs into outputs that customers desire. • The design and effectiveness of a company’s operations can determine the success of an enterprise.
4.

Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2 THE OPERATIONS PROCESS • Product-oriented and service-oriented operations are similar in that they change inputs into outputs. • Inputs can include: • Money. • Raw materials. • Labor. • Equipment. • Information. • Energy. • Outputs are the products and/or services that a business provides to its customers. • Thus, the operations process may be described as a conversion process.

6.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2a The Operations Process in a Service Business • Managers of service businesses face special challenges in assuring and controlling quality, given the difficulty inherent in measuring and controlling intangibles. • In service businesses, employees interact extensively with customers. • The adoption of various technologies has enabled customers of many businesses to provide more of their own services.
7.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2b The Operations Process in a Manufacturing Business (slide 1 of 2) • Most manufacturing operations can be classified as one of three types: 1. Job shops – Manufacturing operations designed for short production runs of small quantities of items. • Example: Machine shops. 2. Project manufacturing – Manufacturing operations used to create unique but similar products. • Example: Processing tax returns. 3. Repetitive manufacturing – Manufacturing operations designed for long production runs of high-volume, standardized products. • Example: The production of smartphones and apparel items. • Continuous manufacturing – A form of repetitive manufacturing with output that more closely resembles a product stream than individual products.
8.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2b The Operations Process in a Manufacturing Business (slide 2 of 2) • Most businesses do not implement a pure version of any of these process types, but rather mix and match them in order to gain the benefits of each. • To meet the increasing market demands for unique products that are low in price, many companies have turned to flexible manufacturing systems. • Flexible manufacturing systems – Manufacturing operations that usually involve computer-controlled equipment that can turn out products in smaller or more flexible quantities. • In other words, machine automation can help cut manufacturing costs while giving customers exactly what they want. • Buyers will pay much more for products that are highly customized.
9.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2c Capacity Considerations • A small company’s capacity to offer products or services is a critical factor. • It puts a ceiling on the firm’s ability to meet demand and match competitors, but it may also determine startup costs and usually represents a long-term commitment.
10.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2d Planning and Scheduling (slide 1 of 2) • Production planning and scheduling procedures are designed to achieve the orderly sequential flow of manufactured products through a plant at a rate that matches deliveries to customers. • To reach this objective, the manufacturer must avoid production disruptions and utilize machines and personnel efficiently. • Because service firms are closely tied to their customers, they are limited in their ability to produce services and hold them in inventory.
11.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-2d Planning and Scheduling (slide 2 of 2) • Part of the scheduling task for service firms relates to planning employees’ working hours. • To smooth out and delay investment in additional capacity, companies are turning increasingly to demand management strategies. • Demand management strategies – Operational strategies used to stimulate customer demand when it is normally low. • Example: Early-bird dinner specials and lower-price tickets for the afternoon showing of a movie.
12.

Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-3 INVENTORY MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS • Inventory management can help an entrepreneur understand the vital balance between two competing pressures in the business: 1. Increasing inventory to satisfy customer demand. 2. Reducing inventory to maintain a healthy balance sheet.
13.

Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21.2 Service Level and Balance Sheet Considerations
14.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-3a Objectives of Inventory Management • The reasons for carrying inventory include the following: • To meet customer demand. • To be less dependent on a supplier. • To protect against stockouts. • To benefit from sales or quantity-based discounts. • To protect against price increases. • Ensuring continuous operations is particularly important in manufacturing because delays caused by lack of materials or parts can be costly. • Sales can be maximized by completing production in a timely manner and by stocking an appropriate assortment of merchandise for distribution to wholesale establishments and retail stores. • Protecting inventory from theft, misplacement, and deterioration contributes to operational efficiency and business profits.
15.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-3b Inventory Cost Control (slide 1 of 3) • Maintaining optimal inventory—the level that minimizes stockouts and eliminates excess inventory—saves money and contributes to operating profits. • Methods of determining ideal inventory levels include the following: • Economic order quantity – An index that determines the quantity to purchase in order to minimize total inventory costs. • Statistical inventory control – A method of controlling inventory that uses a targeted service level, allowing statistical determination of the appropriate amount of inventory to carry.
16.
© 2020 Cengage
Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. 21-3b Inventory Cost Control (slide 2 of 3) • Inventory comes with many other related costs, including: • Storage (land and buildings, as well as shelving and organization systems). • Theft, weathering, spoilage, and obsolescence. • Cost of capital (from tying up cash in inventory that could be better used elsewhere). • Transaction costs (from ordering, receiving, inspecting, transporting, and distributing inventory). • Insurance and security. • Disposal costs (of inventory that cannot be sold). ABC INVENTORY CLASSIFICATION • ABC method – A system of classifying items in inventory by dollar velocity. Dollar velocity = Purchase price Annual quantity consumed
