MGMT 36100 1st Edition Lecture 7 Last Lecture I. Process Analysis IICurrent Lecture Outline I. Way to improve the process capacity II. Multiple resources at one stage III. The last stage IV. Line Balancing Current LectureI. Ways to improve the process capacity a. Task 2 needs the most help- it’s the most complicated and takes most time II. Multiple Resources in the stagea. Calculate capacity for each resource in this stage b. Get the stage capacity i. Adding the capacity from each resource together c. Compare each stage capacity and find out the bottleneck i. In class Ex. – revised face game, where two people deal with task 2; you end up adding the two individual capacities together for a single overall capacity ii. This can cause the bottleneck to shift to a different change, dependingon how the capacities work out III. Stage capacity: different from the process capacity --- stage cycle time, is different from process capacity a. =1/(stage capacity) i. For stage with single resource, CT= activity time ii. ***Do NOT add or average to get the stage CTIV. Line balancing: increase the process capacity with the same number of workers by reallocating tasks from bottleneck resources to non-bottleneck resources These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.V. Grouping tasks so that the activity time for each resource will be more or less thesame (“balanced”)VI. Performance measures related to labor costa. DLC= Total wages/process capacity i. Idle time for one worker= CT – activity time of the worker 1. Idle time for multi-worker in a
