The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
2. Productivity
Productivity is the ratio between output and input. It is
quantitative relationship between what we produce and
what we have spent to produce.
• Hence,
Productivity is , above all, a state of mind-set. It is an
attitude that seeks the continuous improvement of what
exist. It is a conviction that one can do better today than
yesterday, and that tomorrow will be better than
today.
It is the driving force or dynamism behind developing and
upgrading the quality of industrial activities.
Productivity=
𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡
𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑢𝑡
3. Productivity
A relation between output
generated and input used
A critical
determinant of
cost efficiency
A method to determine the
capacity utilization
A key source
of economic
growth and
competiveness
Definition
4. • Productivity increases output.
• High productivity results in lower cost per unit of output
resulting in higher levels of profit for a business.
• Higher profits for the firm will mean more funds available
for its expansion, new business ventures and community
support.
• It may also wish to pass on the benefits of lower costs to
consumers in the form of lower prices.
Importance of Productivity
5. Diff. between Production and Productivity
Production Productivity
Definition It is defined as the act of
manufacturing goods for
their use or sale.
it is defined as the rate at
which goods are produced.
Use It is the actual process of
conversion.
It is the utilization of
resources to form goods.
Work done It is the amount of work
done or manufactured that
is the output.
It is the amount of work one
gets for a certain spending
cost.
Measurement It is the measure of
produced goods.
It is the measure of
efficiency.
Important Note!
Production is a measure of output only and not a
measure of efficiency
6. Measurement in Productivity and
why ????
• Set overall productivity goals for organization
• Raise awareness among employees
Establish productivity
management function
• Access your company current performance
• Identify the gaps and areas of improvement
Diagnose
• Set targets and formulate strategy
• Implement specification
Develop road map
Implement
measurement system
• Link effort and reward to employees
• Monitor the review parts
Implement performance
management system
7. Techniques for Measurement of Productivity:
PRODUCTIVITY
AGGREGATE
BASIS
TOTAL
PRODUCTIVITY
INDIVIDUAL
BASIS
PARTIAL
PRODUCTIVITY
OR FACTOR
PRODUCTIVITY
8. Aggregate Basis
• On aggregate basis, output is compared with all inputs taken
(added) together. This is called as Total Productivity.
Hence,
• Where Total Output=Total production of goods and services and
Total Input= Labor + Material + Capital + Energy.
• This index measures the productivity of the entire
organization with use of all resources. It is a way of
evaluating efficiency of entire plant or firm.
Total Productivity Index =
Total output
Total input
9. 9
10,000 Units Produced
Sold for $10/unit
500 labor hours
Labor rate: $9/hr
Cost of raw material: $30,000
Overhead: $15,500
Example
11. Individual Basis
• On individual basis, output is compared with any one of
the input factor and this is called as Partial Productivity or
Factor Productivity.
• Factor productivity or partial productivity indices are of
following types:
I. Labor productivity
II. Material productivity
III. Machine Productivity
IV. Capital productivity
12. Labor Productivity
• Labor productivity is simply defined as the ratio of Total output to the
Labour input i.e.
• Labor productivity depends upon how labors are utilized.
• Labor productivity can be higher or lower depending on factors
like availability of work load, material, working tools,
availability of power, work efficiency, level of motivation, level
of training, level of working condition (comfortable or poor)
etc.
Labor Productivity =
𝑻𝑶𝑻𝑨𝑳 𝑶𝑼𝑻𝑷𝑼𝑻
𝑳𝑨𝑩𝑶𝑼𝑹 𝑰𝑵𝑷𝑼𝑻
13. Example
• 10,000 Units Produced
• Sold for $10/unit
• 500 labor hours
• Labor rate: $9/hr
What is the
labor productivity?
14. • 10,000 units / 500hrs = 20 units/hr
• (10,000 units * $10/unit) / 500hrs = $200/hr
• 10,000 units / (500hrs * $9/hr) = 2.2 unit/$
• (10,000 units * $10/unit) / (500hrs * $9/hr) = 22.22
•The last one is unit-less
14
Example: Labor Productivity
16. Machine Productivity
• Production system converts raw material into finished
product through mechanical or chemical process with the
help of machines and equipment's.
• Machine productivity=
Total output
Machine input
or
• M.P=
Output in standard hours
Actual machine hours
• Machine productivity depends upon availability of raw material,
power, skill of workers, machine layout etc.
17. Capital Productivity
• For any production set-up, facilities of machines, tools, land etc.
are required which are assets of organization. Capital is needed
for such assets.
• Capital productivity=
Total output
Capital input
or
• Capital productivity=
Total output
Capital employed
• Capital productivity depends on how effectively assets are
utilized.

Role Of Material Management
25. • It emphasizes the efficient utilization of all the factors of
production which are scarce universally.
• It attempts to eliminate wastage.
• It facilitates the comparison of the performance of a company to
its competitors or related firms, in terms of aggregate results
and of major components of performance.
• It enables the management to control the performance of the
company by identifying the comparative benefits rising out of
the use of different inputs.
