Product and service life cycles
• Alongside the life cycle the sales and with it the production volume can change.
• Thus managers must be aware of the change in the optimal processing system. (the necessity of change is highly dependent on the particular good or service)
![Page 12: Process Selection and Facility Layout. Process selection – Deciding on the way production of goods or services will be organized Major implications –](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dab5503460f94a9935a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Example
• Computer building shop in a garage (working for order only, one computer at a time for given purposes)
• The shop hires some workers and producing some dozens of computers for one customer at a time
• Computer factory is established, creating large number of computer series
• The R&D function of the firm invents a new computer prototype

Design Product Layouts: Line Balancing
Line Balancing is the process of assigning tasks to workstations in such a way that the workstations have approximately equal time requirements.This way the idle time will be minimized, utilization will be maximized.
Specialization: dividing work into elemental tasks that can be performed quickly and routinely.
