Chapter 7, Slide 7

Business View

• What conversion steps must be done?

• What are the production volumes like?

• How similar are the various products we make (can we standardize)?

• If the product is customized, how late in the process does it occur?

Classic Manufacturing Processes

Chapter 7, Slide 9

Process Types(in order of decreasing volume)

• Continuous Flow• Production Line• Batch (High Volume)• Batch (Low Volume)• Job Shop• Project

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 10

Continuous Flow

• Large production volumes• High level of automation• Basic material passed along,

converted as it moves• Usually very high fixed costs,

inflexible

Oil refinery, fiber formation, public utilities, automotive manufacturing

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 11

Production Line

High-volume production of standard products or “design window”

• Processes arranged by product flow• Often “paced”• Highly efficient, but not too flexible

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 12

Batch I

• Somewhere in between job shop and line processes

• Moderate volumes, multiple products

• Production occurs in “batches”

Can manufacturing, carton makers, advertising mailers, etc.

Chapter 7, Slide 13

Batch II

Layout is a cross between that found in a line and that found in a job shop:

Group Technology

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 14

Some Examples of Batch Manufacturing

• Numerical control (NC) machines– Automated processing of entire batch– Machining center - multiple NC machines

• Flexible manufacturing systems (FMS)– Dedicated to families of parts– NC and automated handling

• Group technology– Similar in concept to FMS, but not as much

automation

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 15

Job Shop

• Low volume, one-of-a-kind products• Job shops sell their capability

• Highly flexible equipment, skilled workers• Equipment arranged by function

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 16

Project

• Used when a product is:– one-of-a-kind– too large to be moved

• Resources moved to where needed• Equipment, people, etc. are highly

flexible• Finite duration, often with deadlineBuilding projects, equipment installation

The Role of Customization

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 32

What is “Customization”?

An operations-centric view:

“Customization occurs when a customer’s unique requirements directly affect the timing and nature of operations and supply chain activities”

Chapter 7, Slide 33

Services

• What makes them distinctive?• High-contact versus low-contact

• Front room versus back room• A Model of Service Design• Service Blueprinting

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 41

Services . . .

• Process and “product” are inseparable• Marketing and sales often tightly integrated• Customer often part of the process• Performance metrics can be harder to

define• Nevertheless:

– Focus and process choices / trade-offs still apply

©2006 Pearson Prentice Hall — Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management — Bozarth & Handfield

Chapter 7, Slide 42

Degree of Customer Contact

Low Contact• “off-line”• Can locate for

efficiency• Can smooth out

the workload Check clearing,

mail sorting

High Contact• “on-line”• Can locate for

easy access• Flexibility to

respond to customers

• Harder to manage

Hospitals, food service

Classifying Services

“Front Room” versus “Back Room”

Back room – what the customer does not see

Managed for efficiency andProductivity

Package sorting, car repair, blood test analysis, accounting department

Front room – what the customer can see

Managed for flexibility and customer service

Customer lobbies, bank teller, receptionist

Chapter 7, Slide 45

Designing Services• Selecting a service focus

– Like manufacturing processes, different services have strengths and weaknesses

• Key is to design a service process that meets the needs of targeted customers

• The “service package”

Layout Decision Models

• Product-based layout– Usually best for a line operation– Cycle time a primary measure

• Functional layout– Usually best for a job shop– Distance between steps a measure

• Cellular layout– Usually best for batch processes

Chapter 7, Slide 50

Product-Based Layout

Line Balancing• Improve ‘Takt’ time:

– Reduce idle time– Reduce setup time– Reduce unnecessary movement– Identify ‘bottlenecks’

A. Minimize the total distance traveled

B. Minimize information flow for decisions

C. Use electronic data interchange (EDI) to allow more flexibility for accomplishing A and B
