Design of Quality Control Systems
• Break down production process into subprocesses and “internal customers.”
• Identify “Critical points” where inspection or measurement should take place
• Four steps in designing QC systems.
![Page 4: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
9-4
Steps in Designing QC Systems
Identify critical points• Incoming materials & services• Work in process• Finished product or service
Decide on the type of measurement • variable • attribute
Decide on the amount of inspection to be used. Decide who should do the inspection
![Page 5: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Types Of Measurement
• Attribute measurement–Product characteristic evaluated with a discrete choice:
• Good/bad, yes/no
• Variable measurement–Product characteristic that can be measured on a continuous scale:
• Length, size, weight, height, time, velocity
![Page 6: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

When the Inspector Finds a Defect…
1. Containment: Keep the defective items from getting to the customer
2. Correction: Find the cause of the defect and correct it.
3. Prevention: Prevent the cause from happening again.
4. Continuously improve the system.
![Page 7: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
9-7
When the Inspector Finds a Defect e.g. Strap on backpack comes loose
Containment: pull the bad backpacks from the line.
Correction: sewing machine misaligned; fix it.
Prevention: why was it misaligned? Find out and change system to prevent it happening again.
Continuously monitor and improve system.

Process Quality Control
• Basic assumptions (tenets) of Process Quality Control:– Every process has random variation in it.– Production processes are not usually found in a state of
control.
• “State of Control”; what does it mean?– Unnecessary variation is eliminated.– Remaining variation is because of random causes.
![Page 9: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
9-9
Process Quality Control
• Assignable (special) causes– Can be identified and corrected
• Common causes– Occur randomly– Cannot be changed unless process is redesigned
![Page 10: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Attributes & Variables
• Attributes are counts, such as the number (or proportion) of defects in a sample.
• Variables are measures (mean & range or standard deviation) of critical characteristics in a sample.
![Page 13: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

9-14
Issues in Using Control Charts• Sample Size
– large enough to detect defectives– defect rate has time dimension
• How often to sample?– Depends upon cost
• Control limits vs. product specifications– Is the process capable of producing to specs?– Are the specifications appropriate?
![Page 15: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
9-15
Continuous Improvement
• Aim of continuous improvement is to reduce the variability of the product or process
• Techniques for continuous improvement– Pareto analysis– Cause-and-effect (fish-bone) diagrams– Process capability charts
![Page 16: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Six-Sigma Quality• Pioneered by Motorola in 1988 (Juran claims credit for the
idea).• 3.4 defects per million• Sample size rules become unusable• Most process are 4 sigma, e.g. payroll, prescriptions, baggage
handling, journal vouchers, restaurant bills.• Airline fatalities are 6.4 sigma• IRS tax advice is less than 2 sigma• Criticism: accepts 3.4 defects/million. Is not zero defects.
![Page 22: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Quality Control in Industry
• 75% use process control charts.• More use of variable (x-bar and R) charts than
attribute (p) charts.• “The Seven Tools of Quality Control” (see
Figure 9.7)• Quality control in the service industry
(SERVQUAL)

Distribution Channel
The route from the producer forward through the distributors to the customer
![Page 32: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
10-32
Demand Management
• Managing the demand for goods or services along the supply chain.
• Demand can be managed through such mechanisms as products, pricing, promotion, and distribution.
![Page 33: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
10-33
Logistics Management
• If broadly defined, it is the same as supply chain management.
• Narrowly defined, logistics management is concerned with inbound transportation and outbound distribution.
![Page 34: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

10-35
System Interactions(System Dynamics in Supply Chains)
• Supply chain is a highly interactive system. Decisions in each part of the chain affect the other parts.
• There is an accelerator (bull whip) effect• The best way to improve a supply chain is to
reduce the total replenishment time and to feed back actual demand information to all levels.
![Page 36: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Coordination in the Supply Chain
• Need for coordination both within firms and across firms
• Supply chains must be managed across organizational boundaries.
• Parallel between supply chain and quality improvement
![Page 40: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Measuring Supply Chain Performance (1)
• Delivery—on time delivery of entire orders.• Quality
– Customer satisfaction– Customer loyalty
• Time– Total replenishment time– Cash to cash cycle
• Days in inventory + days in accts receivable-days in accounts payable
![Page 41: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
10-41
Measuring Supply Chain Performance (2)
• Flexibility– Time to change volume or product mix by a certain
percentage– Maximum percentage of change in volume or
product mix in fixed time perion• Cost
– Total delivered cost– Value added or productivity
![Page 42: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
10-42
Supply Chain Strategies
• Functional products—commodity-like– Efficient, low cost supply chain
• Innovative products– Flexible, fast supply chain
• Firms should sort their products and apply the appropriate strategies
![Page 43: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
10-43
Structural Improvement
Basic Ways to Improve Supply Chain Structure:– Change structure
• Capacity, Facilities, Process technology, vertical integration
– Change infrastructure• People, Information systems, Organization, Production
and inventory control, Quality control systems
![Page 44: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
10-44
Forms of Structural Change in a Supply Chain
• Forward and Backward Integration• Major process simplification• Changing the configuration of factories,
warehouses, or retail locations• Major product redesign• Outsourcing logistics to a third party.
![Page 45: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
10-45
Improvement in Infrastructure
• Cross-functional teams• Partnerships with suppliers and customers• Set-up time reduction to reduce lot sizes• Integrated information systems• Cross-docking—keeps goods out of the
warehouses.
![Page 46: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Virtual Supply Chains
• “Virtual Companies”:– Highly flexible—no fixed assets– Successful in highly dynamic environment– Made feasible by computers and the Internet – May lead to “hollow corporations” or shell
companies• Virtual Supply Chain consists of at least one
virtual company that coordinates all activities of the supply chain

A Forecasting Framework• Focus of the chapter is on the forecasting of demand
for output from the operations function.– Demand may differ from sales
• Difference between forecasting and planning– Forecasting: what we think will happen– Planning: what we think should happen
• Forecasting application in various decision areas of operations (capacity planning, inventory management, others)
• Forecasting uses and methods (See Table 11.1)
![Page 56: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

‘Qualitative’ Forecasting Methods
• Based upon managerial judgment when there is a lack of data. No specific model.
• Major methods:– Delphi Technique– Market Surveys– Life-cycles Analogy– Informed Judgment (naïve models)
![Page 59: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
11-59
Time-Series Forecasting
• Components of time-series data:– Trend—general direction (up or down)– Seasonality—short term recurring cycles– Cycle—long term business cycle– Error (random or irregular component)
• “Decomposition” of time-series– Data are broken into the four components
• Moving Averages• Exponential Smoothing

• The new average is computed from the old average:
• The value of the smoothing constant () is a choice. It determines how much the calculation smooths out the random variations. Its value can be set between zero (0) and one (1). Normally it is in the 0.1 to 0.2 range.

Advanced Time-Series Forecasting
• Adaptive exponential smoothing– Smoothing coefficient () is varied
• Box-Jenkins method– Requires about 60 periods of past data
![Page 70: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)

Time Series vs. Causal Models
• Time series compares data being forecast over time, i.e. Time is the independent variable or x- axis or x-variable.
• Causal models compare data being forecast against some other data set which the forecaster may think is a cause of the forecasted data, e.g. population size causes newspaper sales.
![Page 71: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

Selecting a Forecasting Method
• User and system sophistication– People reluctant to use what they don’t understand
• Time and resources available– When is forecast needed?– What is value of forecast?
• Use or decision characteristics, e.g. horizon• Data availability and quality• Data pattern• Don’t force the data to fit the model!
![Page 75: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Forecast Horizons and Forecast Accuracy
• The longer the forecast horizon, the less accurate the forecast
• Long lead times require long forecast horizons• Lean, responsive companies have the goal of
decreasing lead times so they are shorter than the forecast horizon
![Page 76: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)

Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR)
• Aim is to achieve more accurate forecasts• Share information in the supply chain with
customers and suppliers.• Compare forecasts
– If discrepancy, look for reason– Agree on consensus forecast
• Works best in BtoB with few customers
![Page 77: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)

Definition of “Capacity”
Capacity is defined as the maximum output that can be produced over a given period of time.
•Primarily determined by– Physical assets– Labor availability
•Nominal capacity– Subtracts downtime, shift breaks, etc.– Is the actual capacity that should be used in planning
![Page 83: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
12-83
Facilities Decisions

1. Develop production plan.
2. Check implications for inventory/backlog plan.
3. If necessary, adjust production plan.
4. Check against resource plan and availability.
5. If necessary, adjust production plan.
6. Recheck against inventory/backlog and resources.
7. Continue (go to 5) until you meet all constraints.

Difficulties Of Batch/Job Shop Scheduling
• Variety of jobs processed• Different routing and processing
requirements of each job• Number of different orders in the
facility at any one time• Competition for common resources
![Page 110: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Responsibilities of Production Control Department
• Loading– Check availability of material, machines
& labor• Sequencing
– Release work orders to shop & issue dispatch lists for individual machines
• Monitoring– Maintain progress reports on each job
until it is complete
![Page 111: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
13-111
Gantt Charting• Developed by Henry Gantt in 1917• Related concepts:
– Makespan – total time to complete a set of jobs– Machine utilization – percent of make span time a
machine (or person) is used.• Used primarily to monitor progress of jobs
![Page 112: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)

Where is the bottleneck?
Total Machine times for the five jobs:– Machine A: 15 hours– Machine B: 12 hours– Machine C: 16 hours
C appears to be the bottleneck.But! A is used for every job; C is not.Either one could determine makespan.

Finite Capacity Scheduling
• Finite capacity scheduling loads jobs onto work stations being careful not to exceed the capacity of any given station.
• Done at the detailed planning and scheduling (DPS) level
• Part of the loading responsibility.
![Page 117: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
13-117
Theory of Constraints (TOC)
• Proposed by Goldratt in The Goal (1983)• Goal is to make money.• Key elements of “goals” according to TOC:
– Throughput—what is made and sold– Inventory—raw materials– Operating expenses—cost of conversion
• Production does not count until it is sold!
![Page 118: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
13-118
Theory of Constraints (TOC)• A constraint is anything that is slowing
down production—a bottleneck.– A machine or workstation– The market– Procurement system
• The bottleneck determines the capacity of the system.
• Implication: the operations manager should focus on the bottleneck to increase capacity and throughput (and make more money).
![Page 119: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
13-119
Priority Dispatching Rules• What are priority dispatching rules?
– If you have more than one job waiting at a work station, how do you select which one to process next? The criterion you use for selecting the next job is your dispatching rule.
• In front office services, the most common rule is “first come, first served.”
• Part of the sequencing responsibility
![Page 120: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
13-120
Priority Dispatching Rules
• Commonly used in manufacturing:– MINPRT (Minimum Processing Time or SPT, shortest
processing time) This rule minimizes total waiting time.
– Critical Ratio (Minimizes average lateness)
• Commonly used in services:– FCFS (First Come, First Served)
![Page 121: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
13-121
Infinite Capacity Loading
•“Infinite capacity loading” loads jobs onto work centers without regard for the total capacity of the work center.•If the capacity for any given work center has been exceeded, the schedule must be changed.•This is generally done at the MRP level before detailed scheduling and planning
![Page 122: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)

What is a “Project”?
• Unique item - often a single unit.• Often located on one place. The unit does not
move during production.• Resources are brought to the project.• May be of any size, although we focus on large
projects.

Scheduling Activities & Decisions
• Develop a detailed work-breakdown structure
• Estimated time required for each task• Sequence tasks in proper order• Develop a start/stop time for each task• Develop detailed budget for each task• Assign people to tasks
![Page 135: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)

Execution & Control
• Monitor actual time, cost, and performance• Compare planned to actual figures• Determine whether corrective action is
needed• Evaluate alternative corrective actions• Take appropriate corrective actions
![Page 136: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
14-136
Execution and ControlWhat are ‘corrective actions?’
When one or more activities threaten the time, cost, or performance of the project, a corrective action is necessary:
• Redefine the activity (e.g. split the activity).• Add resources to the activity.• Shift resources from one activity to another
Resources = people, equipment, money
![Page 137: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)

Scheduling Methods
• Gantt Charts– Shown as a bar charts– Do not show precedence relations– Visual & easy to understand
• Network Methods– Shown as a graphs or networks– Show precedence relations– More complex, difficult to understand and costly
than Gantt charts

Constant-Time Networks
• Activity times are assumed to be constant• Activities are represented by nodes in the network• Arrows show the precedence relationships• Notations used in calculating start and finish times:
– ES(a) = Early Start of activity a– EF(a) = Early Finish of activity a– LS(a) = Late Start of activity a– LF(a) = Late Finish of activity a

Calculating ES, EF, LS, LF, and Completion Time
ES (a) = 0 for the starting activityEF (a) = ES (a) + t (a)*ES (a) = max [EF (all predecessors of a)]Project completion time = max [EF(all ending activities)]
* t (a) denotes the duration of activity a
LF (a) = min [LS (all successors of a)]LS (a) = LF - t(a)*

Critical Path
• Critical Path = longest path in the network– All activities for which ES=LS and EF=LF– Length of critical path is equal to the project
completion time– If there is any delay on the critical path, the project
will be delayed (unless one takes ‘corrective actions’)
![Page 146: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/146.jpg)
14-146
Slack Times
• Slack time equals amount of time a path may be delayed without delaying the project– Paths not on the critical path have slack– Slack = LS-ES or LF-EF

Introduction
• Inventory: a stock of materials used to facilitate production or to satisfy customer demand.
• Types of inventory– Raw materials (RM)– Work in process (WIP)– Finished goods (FG)– Maintenance, repair & operating supplies (MRO)
![Page 161: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/161.jpg)

Purpose of Inventories (1)• To protect against uncertainties
– in demand (finished goods, MRO)– supply (RM, MRO)– lead times (RM/PP or WIP)– schedule changes (WIP)
• To allow economic production and purchase (as in discounts for buying RM/PP in bulk)
![Page 164: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/164.jpg)
15-164
Purpose of Inventories (2)
• To cover anticipated changes in demand (as in a level strategy) or supply– finished goods– RM/PP
• To provide for transit (pipeline inventories)– RM/PP– finished goods– WIP (independence of operations)
![Page 165: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/165.jpg)

Inventory Cost Structures (1)
• Item or SKU cost– Expressed as cost per unit or SKU. Gets into
LIFO and FIFO issues. – Problem can be compounded by quantity
discounts.
![Page 166: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/166.jpg)
15-166
Inventory Cost Structures (2)
• Ordering (or setup) cost– Paperwork, worker time (ordering)– worker time, downtime (setup)– Typically expressed as a fixed cost per order or
setup.
![Page 167: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/167.jpg)
15-167
Inventory Cost Structures (3)• Carrying (or holding) cost:
– Cost of capital (market rate or internal rate of return)– Cost of storage (building, utilities, insurance, handling)– Cost of obsolescence, deterioration, and loss
(shrinkage)– Management cost (record keeping, counting)
• Typically expressed as a percentage of SKU cost. Average in U.S. is estimated to be 35 percent per year.
• Businesses often use only cost of capital (understatement).
![Page 168: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/168.jpg)

Inventory Cost Structures (5)• Stock out cost (back order or lost sales)
– record maintenance– lost income– customer dissatisfaction– Typically expressed as a fixed cost per backorder
or as a function of aging of backorders.

Two Forms of Demand (1)
• Independent demand (this chapter)– finished goods, spare parts, MRO– based on market demand– requires forecasting– managed using ‘replenishment philosophy’, i.e.
reorder when reach a pre-specified level.
![Page 171: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/171.jpg)
15-171
Two Forms of Demand (2)• Dependent demand (next two chapters)
– parts that go into the finished products, RM/PP or WIP
– dependent demand is a known function of independent demand
– calculate instead of forecast– Managed using a ‘requirements philosophy’,
i.e. only ordered as needed for higher level components or products.

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)
• Developed in 1915 by F.W. Harris• Answers the question ‘How much do I order?’• Used for independent demand items.• Objective is to find order quantity (Q) that minimizes
the total cost (TC) of managing inventory.• Must be calculated separately for each SKU.• Widely used and very robust (i.e. works well in a lot of
situations, even when its assumptions don’t hold exactly).
![Page 174: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/174.jpg)
15-174
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)Basic Model Assumptions
• Demand rate is constant, recurring, and known.• Lead time is constant and known.• No stockouts allowed.• Material is ordered or produced in a lot or batch
and the lot is received all at once• Costs are constant
– Unit cost is constant (no quantity discounts)– Carrying cost is a constant per unit (SKU)– Ordering (setup) cost per order is fixed
• The item is a single product or SKU.
![Page 175: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/175.jpg)
15-175
EOQ Lot Size Choice
• There is a trade-off between frequency of ordering (or the size of the order) and the inventory level.– Frequent orders (small lot size) lead to a lower
average inventory size, i.e. higher ordering cost and lower holding cost.
– Fewer orders (large lot size) lead to a larger average inventory size, i.e. lower ordering cost and higher holding cost.

15-178
Cost Equations in EOQ
Ordering cost = (cost per order) x orders per year) = SD/Q
Carrying cost per year = (annual carrying rate) x (unit cost) x average inventory = iCQ/2
Total annual cost (TC) = ordering cost per year + carrying cost per year = SD/Q + iCQ/2

EOQ = 2SD)/iC = SQRT[(2*12*10*52)/(80*.3)]

TC = ordering cost + holding cost= S*(D/Q) + iC*(Q/2) = 10(520/22.8) + 24 * 11.4= 228.70 + 273.60 = $547.28/year
If order 22 cases instead, TC = $547.64; if 23, TC = $547.30

Continuous Review System• Relax assumption of constant demand.
Demand is assumed to be random.• Check inventory position each time there is a
demand (i.e continuously).• If inventory position drops below the reorder
point, place an order for the EOQ.• Also called fixed-order-quantity or Q system
(the fixed order size is EOQ).
![Page 184: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/184.jpg)

15-185
A Continuous Review (Q) SystemAmount to order = EOQ
Order when inventory position = reorder point.
Reorder point = lead time * demand/period
= R = lead time demand (when demand is constant)
Reorder point is independent of EOQ!EOQ tells how much to order.Reorder point tells when to order.
![Page 186: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/186.jpg)
15-186
Service Level
• When demand is random, the reorder point must take into account the service level or fill rate.
• Service level has many definitions:– Probability that all orders will be refilled while
waiting for an order to arrive.– Percentage of demand filled from stock in a time
period.– Percentage of time the system has stock on hand.
![Page 187: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/187.jpg)

Periodic Review System (1)
• Instead of reviewing continuously, we review the inventory position at fixed intervals. For example, the bread truck visits the grocery store on the same days every week.
• Also known as “P system”, “Fixed-order-interval system” or “Fixed-order-period system”
![Page 189: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/189.jpg)
15-189
Periodic Review System (2)
• Each time we review the inventory, we either order or don’t. The decision depends upon our reorder point.
• The amount we order may be fixed, or may be the amount needed to bring us up to a target (T).
![Page 190: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/190.jpg)

15-192
Using P and Q System in Practice
• Use P system when orders must be placed at specified intervals.
• Use P systems when multiple items are ordered from the same supplier (joint-replenishment).
• Use P system for inexpensive items.
![Page 193: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/193.jpg)
15-193
Using P and Q Systems in Practice
• P may be easier to use since levels are reviewed less often.
• P requires more safety stock since may only order at fixed points.
• P is more likely to run out since cannot respond to increases in demand immediately
• Either may be more costly: P in safety stock, Q in monitoring cost.

ABC Inventory Management (1)
• Based on “Pareto” concept (80/20 rule) and total usage in dollars of each item.
• Classification of items as A, B, or C based on usage.
• Purpose is to set priorities on effort used to manage different SKUs, i.e. to allocate scarce management resources.
![Page 196: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/196.jpg)
15-196
ABC Inventory Management (2)
• ‘A’ items: 20% of SKUs, 80% of dollars• ‘B’ items: 30 % of SKUs, 15% of dollars• ‘C’ items: 50 % of SKUs, 5% of dollars• Three classes is arbitrary; could be any number.• Percents are approximate.• Danger: dollar use may not reflect importance of
any given SKU!

Introduction to MRP• Used to manage dependent demand items
– Raw materials and purchased parts– Work in process (WIP)
• Driven by the master schedule (which is driven by S&OP).
• End items ‘exploded’ into all components using bill of materials (BOM)
• Schedule offset based on lead times• Is the heart of a larger ERP system
![Page 205: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/205.jpg)

Definitions of MRP Systems• Developed by Joe Orlicky at IBM, 1975.
– IBM 370 was the first computer with the capacity to handle MRP calculations
• Types of MRP:– Type I. An inventory control system (MRP)– Type II. Manufacturing Resource Planning system
(MRPII)– Type III. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system
![Page 206: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/206.jpg)
16-206
Definitions of MRP SystemsThree principal functions of MRP (Orlicky):• Inventory
– Order the right part– Order in the right quantity– Order at the right time
• Priorities– Order with the right due date– Keep the due date valid
• Capacity– A complete load– An accurate (valid) load– An adequate time span for visibility of future load

Origin of Requirements
• At Level Zero: gross requirements come from the master production schedule (MPS)
• Below level zero: gross requirements come from planned order releases for the next level above.
• Net requirements are gross requirements plus scheduled receipts minus inventory on-hand

Operating an MRP System
• Should MRP carry “safety stock”?• How much “safety stock” should be carried?• Issue of “safety lead time”• Danger of “informal” system driving out the “formal”
system• Expansion of MRP to other functions (finance, HRM,
etc.) of business

Philosophy of JIT
• Modern Roots of JIT (Toyota Production System, Taiichi Ohno. d. 1990)
• Elements of JIT• Root of JIT in “repetitive” manufacturing• JIT as a technique: to reduce inventory• JIT as a philosophy: a comprehensive
management system

The Seven WastesOverproduction: Producing more than the demand for customers resulting in unnecessary inventory, handling, paperwork, and warehouse space.
Waiting Time: Operators and machines waiting for parts or work to arrive from suppliers or other operations.
Transportation: Double or triple movement of materials due to poor layouts, lack of coordination and workplace organization.
Processing: Poor design or inadequate maintenance or processes requiring additional labor or machine time.
Inventory: Excess inventory due to large lot sizes, obsolete items, poor forecasts or improper production planning.
Motion: Wasted movements of people or extra walking to get materials.
Defects: Use of materials, labor and capacity for production of defects, sorting our bad parts or warranty costs with customers.

Inventory as Waste
• “If all our suppliers are guessing, you end up with inventory, which is the physical embodiment of bad information.” –Paul Bell, Dell, Inc. Europe.
• Dell’s inventories fell from 31 days of parts in 1996 to 6 days in 2000.

The Kanban System
• The Kanban system uses simple cards or signals to strictly control production
• The basic idea is that no station is permitted to produce more than is immediately required by the succeeding station
• This simple idea prevents the buildup of inventory• No computer is required!

The Real Origin Of Kanban
Q - R
In the 1950s, Ohno visited Detroit to learn about auto making from the U.S. manufacturers.
He was not impressed.
He visited a supermarket, which they did not have in Japan, and observed the way they restocked the shelves.
He used that method as the basis for Kanban.

Reducing Setup Times and Lot Sizes• Reducing setup times:
– increases available capacity– increases flexibility– reduces inventory
• Reduce setup times and run times simultaneously to reduce lot sizes and throughput times
• Single-digit Setup Times (Shigeo Shingo [d. 1990] or SMED System)
• Small lots require short setups!

Features of Integrated Supplier Programs
• Early supplier selection, preferably in the design phase
• Family of part sourcing to allow supplier to take advantage of GT
• Long-term relationships with small number of suppliers
• Paperwork reduction in receiving and inspection to reduce costs
![Page 246: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/246.jpg)

Implementation of JIT
• Obtain commitment from top management• Gain the cooperation of workforce• Start with final assembly line• Reduce setup times and lot sizes working backward from
the final assembly line• Balance fabrication rates with final assembly production
rates• Extend JIT to the suppliers

17-248
Comparison of MRP and JIT• Pull versus Push production systems• Situations for comparing MRP and JIT:
– Pure repetitive manufacturing situation; JIT works best– A batch process; JIT works well with cellular
manufacturing– A job shop; MRPII with some elements of JIT
• MRP assumes the present system is correct and seeks to make the best of that system.
• JIT seeks to change the system to make it better.
![Page 249: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/249.jpg)
The Traditional Push System• In traditional manufacturing, an item is released
for production at a specified time, with an associated due date generated by MRP.
• The item moves through a sequence of operations
• When one operation is finished, the item is “pushed” to the next operation
• Finally, the product is pushed to inventory, to meet the demand forecast

![Page 250: Introduction to Operational Management Part 2](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103109/5465d8b8b4af9f301e8b4a3a/html5/thumbnails/250.jpg)
The Pull System• The pull system focuses on the output of the
system rather than the input.• Finished products are “pulled” from the final
operation in response to firm customer orders.• This leads to a chain reaction, with each station
pulling material from its preceding station.• JIT uses the “Kanban” system to control the
flow of material with very little work-in-process inventory.
