- Manufacturing processes must meet both technical and business requirements. The technical requirements relate to transforming inputs into outputs, while the business requirements relate to factors like production volumes and customer needs.
- There are different categories of manufacturing processes that are suited to different production volumes and product types, including project, jobbing, batch, line, and continuous processes. Each process type has different trade-offs in terms of flexibility, cost, and other factors.
- Companies must select a manufacturing process that aligns with their market needs and intended production levels, as process investments are difficult to change and are typically designed not to require frequent changes.
- Choosing a location and layout are distinct yet related decisions for organizations. Location concerns where to site a facility while layout concerns how to arrange operations within the facility.
- Several factors must be considered at multiple levels when choosing a location, from continent/region to country to city to site. This is a large, fixed investment so uncertainty must be reflected.
- There are three basic types of layouts: fixed position, process/functional, and service/product. Process/functional is best for repeat, high-volume delivery while fixed position suits project manufacturing.
This document provides an overview of operations scheduling. It begins by defining operations scheduling as ensuring customer requirements and performance targets are met. Operations scheduling helps cushion stable delivery systems from unstable markets through various mechanisms like inventory, order backlog, and capacity.
The choice of scheduling system depends on factors like the delivery system/process type and whether demand is repeat or non-repeat. For non-repeat demand, bar charts or informal systems are used, while for repeat demand MRP, JIT, Lean and other systems are options. Different case studies on JIT and ERP implementations are also discussed. The document concludes by reflecting on integrating systems to support diverse business needs and selecting systems that best match requirements.
This document provides an overview of inventory management. It begins by defining inventory as materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods held within a delivery system. The purpose of inventory is to decouple different phases of production so they can work independently. There are three main categories of inventory: raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods. Companies use different inventory management models like Pareto analysis and economic order quantity to determine reorder levels. Regular causal analysis helps minimize inventory by identifying the reasons for excess stock. The document discusses approaches for analyzing and reducing inventory through changing rules and procedures.
This document provides an overview of operations management. It discusses that the role of operations management is to deliver services and products to customers by managing people, materials, resources, and delivery systems. Operations management transforms various inputs like materials, people, and information into outputs that are sold to customers. The operations management function is critical to organizational success as it manages a large percentage of people, assets, and costs.
