Question No. 1
1.
Discussed at 2 developing alternatives to enhance capacity management.
Take a “big-picture” (systems) approach to capacity changes
This adds up to a frameworks approach: the various pieces of the framework are
interrelated, so except if the whole framework is thought of, all things considered, the
general framework limit will endure. One illustration of this is development of an inn
regardless of the subsequent need to think about extension of stopping, eating, and
sporting offices. Comparable models incorporate expanded air trips into a city, lodging
development (sway on streets, sewers, schools, shopping, and so on), and expanding
the limit of one machine in a progression of machine
Prepare to deal with capacity “chunks
Capacity in "chunks" refers to the large stepwise increases that are frequently
encountered in capacity decisions. An example would be adding a new machine.
Capacity in "chunks" is important because it means that small capacity increases may
not be feasible, or that other alternatives (e.g., working overtime instead of buying
another machine) may be worthy of consideration.
2. Explain the strategic importance of process selection.
The term "process selection" refers to the process of determining how products or services will be
produced. Processes are the backbone of operations management since they turn inputs into outputs. ...
a) Process selection has an effect on the overall organization's ability to accomplish its goal, as well as
the supply chain.
