This document discusses operations and supply chain management for a Barcelona-based shoe manufacturer called Maians. It provides an overview of their production process, which involves stocking, cutting, making, vulcanizing, cooling, and packaging shoes. It identifies the bottleneck as the sole attaching stage, which takes 600 seconds per pair. It recommends improving machinery to decrease process time by 33%, redistributing lasting resources, reallocating employees to new machines, and purchasing additional sole attaching and cotton cutting machines. This would increase production from the current 109 pairs per hour to 237 pairs per hour.
