 Inventory of standard components is held.  Shortest delivery lead time.
 Shorter lead time to deliver products.
32
Implications of manufacturing system

33
The Supply Chain Management
Concept

34
Supply chain-1

 Links many companies- including intermediaries such as wholesalers,


warehouses, and transporters.

 Includes all activities and processes to supply a product or service to the


customer- flow of material, information, and funds.

35
Supply chain-2

36
Drivers of supply chain concept

 Integrated systems (ERP) and the sharing of information.


 Global competition and supply.
 Flexible designs - reduced product life cycles.
 JIT approach to inter-organizational relations.
 Subcontracting or outsourcing.

37
Supply chain- working with the suppliers

 Mutual cost reduction


 Inventory, testing and inspection….
 Mutual product design
 Enhanced information flow
 Electronic exchange of orders, drawings, funds, information of
deliveries, inventories, production schedules, compatible ERP software

38
Conflicts in Traditional Systems

39
Objectives of an company and its departments

 Maximize profits- company

 Highest market share- marketing


 Highest growth- marketing
 Best customer service- marketing
 Lowest production costs- production
 Lowest distribution costs- logistics
 Lowest inventory costs- stores
 ……

For period 1 = On hand + MPS - Customer orders due before next MPS = 100- 80= 20 units.
For period 2 = MPS - Customer orders due before next MPS = 110- (10+10) = 80 units
For period 3 = MPS - Customer orders due before next MPS = 0-10= -10 units. Since negative, no
units available for ATP.
For period 4 = MPS - Customer orders due before next MPS = 100- 30= 70 units

99
Data requirements and Time frames
for MPS.

100
Data requirements for MPS

 Sales forecasts

 Actual customer orders

 Inventory levels

 Production Plan data

 Capacity constraints

101
Time frames

•Planning horizons in the MPS


 Frozen Zone (closest to current date)
 Capacity and materials committed to customer orders, forecast generally ignored
 Senior management approval for changes
 Slushy Zone
 Less commitment of materials and capacity
 Tradeoffs negotiated between marketing and manufacturing
 Liquid Zone – All changes allowed within limits of the Production Plan

Production plan strategies- Summary
Strategy Production rate When to use
Chase strategy Production rate = Demand  When product cannot be stored or customer cannot
wait; resources are flexible and inexpensive to change.
Vary production rates to meet
changes in the demand.  Used in agriculture- sowing and harvesting; Amazon and
Restaurants use during peak and lean periods.
Level strategy Production rate = Avg. demand  When product can be stored; resources are rigid or
expensive to change.
Inventory varies.
 Used in the production of seasonal products-
refrigerators, garments, crackers….

Subcontracting Smooth production in-house,  When demand uncertainty is high; garment


strategy sub-contract variation. manufacturing.

Hybrid strategy A combination of Chase, Level  Most companies use Hybrid strategy when feasible.
and Sub-contracting strategies.

116
Example of Make-to-stock
production plan strategies

117
Make-to-stock production plans

 Products are made in expectation of demand.


 Products are kept in inventory, and orders are fulfilled from inventory.
 Examples: Laptops, cars, books, tyres, bulbs, shampoos, watches, …

Products are Made-to-stock when-


 Demand is fairly constant and predictable.
 Delivery times demanded by the marketplace are much shorter than the
time needed to make the product.
 Product has long shelf life.

118
Numerical example

Demand forecast for a product family is given in the table below. The starting inventory is
100 units.
 Create production plans using a) Chase strategy, b) Level strategy, and c) any Hybrid
strategy.

122
Choosing a production plan strategy

Best production plan strategy depends on


1. Cost of carrying inventory
2. Cost of changing capacity (production rate)

123
Example of Make-to-stock
production plan strategies

124
Example from textbook. 1/3

 Sales forecast of a product is given in the table below.


 Inventory at the end of period 0 is 100 cases and the company wants to
reduce that to 80 cases by the end of the planning period.
 Cost of carrying inventory is $ 5/case/period.
 Cost of changing the capacity (production rate) is $ 20/case.

 Compute the cost of Chase strategy and Level strategy,

Ending inventory 100 106 102 88 84 80
Production in period 0 is 116, given.  Cost of carrying inventory is $ 5/case/period.
 Cost of changing the capacity (production rate) is $ 20/case

Cost of carrying inventory = (106 + 102 + 88 + 84 + 80) * 5 = $ 2,300

Total cost = $ 2,300 + production cost

Production in period 0 is100, given.  Cost of carrying inventory is $ 5/case/period.
 Cost of changing the capacity (production rate) is $ 20/case

Cost of carrying inventory = (80 + 80 + 80 + 80 + 80) * 5 = $ 2,000

Cost of changing production = (10 + 30 + 10 + 10 + 0) * 20 = $ 1,200

Total cost = $ 2,000 + $ 1,200 + production cost

127
Example of Make-to-order
production plan strategy

128
Make-to-order production plans

 Products are made to customer specifications.


 The customer is willing to wait for production.
 Generally several options are offered and make-to-order products are more
expensive to make.
 Company has a backlog of unfilled customer orders rather than inventory.

 Backlog: When the product is not available in the stock and the customer
waits for the product to be delivered.

129
Example from textbook. 1/2

 A printing shop undertakes printing after it gets confirmed order from the customer.
 The forecast of orders in hours of work is given below.
 The backlog of orders at the end of period 0 was 100 hours, and the company wants
to reduce he backlog to 80 hours after the end of period 5..
 What will be the backlog of orders after each period?

Period 0 1 2 3 4 5 Total
Sales forecast (hrs) 100 100 100 100 100 500
Production (hrs) ? ? ? ? ? ?

Example from textbook. 2/2

 A printing shop undertakes printing after it gets confirmed order from the customer.
 The forecast of orders in hours of work is given below.
 The backlog of orders at the end of period 0 was 100 hours, and the company wants
to reduce he backlog to 80 hours after the end of period 5..
 What will be the backlog of orders after each period? Use level strategy.

Period 0 1 2 3 4 5 Total
Sales forecast (hrs) 100 100 100 100 100 500

131
Resource planning

132
Resource planning

 What resources are required to meet the production plan?


 Are resources available?
 If not, how will the difference be reconciled?

Demand Capacity

133
Resource bill

 Resource bill: Quantity of critical resources needed to make one unit of the
product group.
 The resource bill for manufacturing Tables, Chairs and Stools by a company
is given in the table below.
Product Wood Labour
(square feet) (standard hours)
Table 20 1.31
Chair 10 0.85
Stool 5 0.55

 Wood and labour required to produce 500 Tables, 200 Chairs and 100 Stools
in the next month will be 12,500 square feet and 880 standard labour hours.
If the company does not have the required wood or labour hours it will have
to obtain them or change the plan.

To determine requirements of the
components and materials to meet
product requirements defined in the
MPS

190
MRP in a Nutshell

191
Timelines-1

Production/Delivery Lead time

Order Release Order Receipt Net Requirement

Net Requirement = Gross Requirement – Inventory – Scheduled Receipts


192
Timelines-2

Production/Delivery Lead time

Order Release Order Receipt Net Requirement

In this course we
want receipt of the
Order Release Net Requirement order when there is a
Order Receipt requirement

Net Requirement = Gross Requirement – Inventory – Scheduled Receipts


193
Key terms

 Gross Requirements – Total of a component needed to meet


requirements not taking any existing inventory into account.
 Net Requirements – Actual amount of a component needed to
meet requirement after existing requirements taken into
account.
 Scheduled receipts – Open orders released for processing
(production or purchase) scheduled to be received at a defined
time.

6. MRP process

201
Bill of Materials (BOM)

202
Parts of a product- pictorial

203
Parts of a product- table

 BOM shows all parts to make one of


the item.

 Each part has one, and only one,


part number, even if the part is used
in different products

 A part is defined by form, fit, and


function – any change requires a
new part number.

204
Parts of a Table- does not show how the product
will be assembled

205
Bill of materials (BOM) vs. List of parts

List of Parts: Parts used to make


the product

BOM = List of Parts + Structure

Structure shows how the


product will be assembled.

206
BOM- Multilevel

Shows how the product will be assembled.

207
BOM- Indented table

Indented BOM is used in the computer

208
Uses of BOM

 Production – Parts needed to assemble a product


 Provides method for design change control
 Planning – What is needed and when
 Order entry – Order configuration and pricing
 Costing – Material cost of goods

209

MRP- examples

213
Example- 1/2 (From textbook p.86)

The Gross Requirements of a product are- 50 units in Week 1, 250 in Week 2, 100 in Week 3 and
50 in Week 4. Scheduled receipts are 200 units in week 2 and Projected Available in Week 0
(opening inventory) is 150 units). Lead time to procure the item is 2 Weeks.
Determine Net Requirements, Projected Available (inventory), Planned Order Receipt and
Planned Order Release.

Lead time to procure the item is 2 Weeks.

Net Requirements = Gross Requirements – (Scheduled Receipts + Projected Available in previous Week), if > 0; else 0.
Projected Available = Projected Available in previous week + Scheduled Receipts + Planned Order Receipt - Gross Requirements
215
Develop MRP- 1/2 (From Textbook p. 83)

• Product A is produced from assembly B and part C,


and assembly B is produced from parts D and E. The
product tree is as shown on the right.
• Each parent requires one item of its each child.
• Lead time to produce each lot of A from B and C is 1
week; Lead time to produce each lot of B from D and E
is 2 weeks; and Lead time to procure each lot of C, D
and E is 1 week.
• Product A required in Week-5 is 50 units Week-6 is 100
units.
• When and how many number of C, D and E should be
ordered for purchase; when and how many number of

MRP explosion for two products

Component F is required by two products B and C.

Product B requires 1 F and 1 G.


Product C requires 2 E and 2 F.

Planned Order Release for B and C are given.

Gross Requirement of F?
223
Key terms

 Exploding – process of multiplying requirements by usage to get BOM requirements

 Lead time – span of time to produce a lot or procure from the supplier.

 Offsetting – Placing requirements in the proper period based on lead time.

 Planned orders – Orders planned during the explosion, but not yet released for processing

 Low-level code – a part is given lowest level if it appears on multiple levels in the Bill of
Materials.

 Firm Planned orders – Orders not yet released, but “frozen” in quantity and time to reduce
system “nervousness”

 Bottom-up replanning – actions to correct for changed conditions made as low as possible in
the product structure.

Scheduling the Orders

230
Scheduling the Orders

 Back scheduling (the typical approach)


 Start with the due date, use manufacturing lead time to find
the proper start date for each operation.

 Forward scheduling
 Launch the order into the first work center, then use the lead
times to find when the order will be completed at each work
center.

231
Example- 1/3 (Textbook p.122, 123)

Problem
There is an order for 150 nos. of gear shaft. The due date is day 135. The route sheet-
giving details of the operations to be performed, the work center on which each operation
will be performed, and the setup times and run times- is given below.
The work center file- giving details of the queue time, wait time, and move time- for each
work center is also given below.
Calculate the start and finish dates for each work center.

232
Example- 2/3 (Textbook p.122, 123)

Computing the Operation time for Order size of 150 pieces

Operation 10 at work center 12: 1.50 + 0.20 * 150 = 31.5 hrs ... 4 days.
Operation 20 at work center 14: 0.50 + 0.25 * 150 = 38 hrs… 5 days.
Operation 30 at work center 17: 0.30 + 0.05 * 150 = 7.8 hrs… 1 day.
Operation 40 at work center 03: 0.45 + 0.10 * 150 = 15.45 hrs... 2 days.

Operation time = Setup time + Run time * Order size

Production Activity Control

Activities
 Release work orders.
 Schedule start and completion times for each shop order and
develop load profiles for the work centres.
 Control work orders to complete on time.
 Ensure materials, tooling, personnel.

Objectives
 Maintain customer service- meeting the due dates.
 Make good use of labor, machines and materials.
 Minimize work-in-process inventory.

242
Manufacturing systems

 Flow manufacturing
 Process manufacturing
 Project manufacturing

243
Flow manufacturing

Routings are fixed and Work centers arranged according to the


routing.
244
Flow manufacturing

In Flow manufacturing
 Routings are fixed and Work centers are arranged according to
the routing.
 For High volume and Standard products
 Repetitive (Automobiles, TVs) or Continuous (Cement, Refinery).
 Specifically designed equipment is used- Dedicated to produce
a limited range of products.
 Use of mechanical transfer devices- Low WIP and short
throughput times.
 Capacity is fixed by the line.
 Production Activity Control is relatively simple.

245
Intermittent manufacturing

Similar Work centres are at one place and Routings are not fixed.

246
Intermittent manufacturing

Intermittent manufacturing
 Similar Work centres are at one place and Routings are not fixed.
 For low volume, high variety products- job shops, furniture, garments.
 Many variations in product design, process requirements, order quantities.
 Flow of work is varied - work flow not balanced.
 Machinery and workers are flexible, Grouped according to function.
 Throughput times are generally long.
 Capacity required depends on product mix.

Production Activity Control is a major activity; it is also complex due to large


number of products made, variety of routings, and scheduling problems.
 Controlled through shop orders for each batch.

247
Project manufacturing

Project manufacturing
• One time activity- high variety
• Ship building, Bridges, Roads, Power plants….
• Mostly sourcing, little manufacturing
• Fabrication and assembly at site
• Several vendors- Close coordination required.

248
Scheduling

249
Scheduling techniques

Scheduling- what to do, when to do, and where to do.

 Forward Scheduling
 Backward Scheduling

251
Scheduling techniques

Forward Scheduling
 Start when the order is received.
 Gives the earliest completion date; Determine promise dates.
 The order may finish early.
 Finished goods inventory builds up if completed before the
promised date.

Backward Scheduling
 Schedule last operation to be completed on the due date. Then,
schedule previous operations back from the last operation.
 Uses MRP logic.
 No build up of finished goods inventory.

Scheduling bottlenecks

256
Scheduling bottlenecks

Bottleneck: A facility, function, department, or resource whose


capacity is equal to or less than the demand put upon it.

Process 1 Process 2 Process 3 Process 4


5 per hour 7 per hour 4 per hour 9 per hour

257
Throughput

Throughput
 The total volume of product passing through a facility- nos/shift.

Bottlenecks control the throughput


 Work centers feeding bottlenecks will build inventory.
 Work Centers fed by bottlenecks have their throughput
controlled by the bottleneck.

Process 1 Process 2 Process 3 Process 4


5 per hour 7 per hour 4 per hour 9 per hour

258
Example-1/2 (Textbook p.144)

A manufacturer makes wagons composed of a box body, a handle assembly,


and two wheel assemblies. Demand for wagons is 500 nos. a week.
The wheel assembly capacity is 1200 sets a week, the handle assembly
capacity is 450 a week, and a final assembly can produce 550 wagons a week.

a. What is the capacity of the factory?


b. What limits the throughput of the factory?
c. How many wheel assemblies should be made?
d. What is the utilization of the wheel assembly?
e. What happens if utilization is 100%?

(Each wagon requires two sets of wheel assembly).

259
Example-1/2 (Textbook p.144)

A manufacturer makes wagons composed of a box body, a handle assembly, and two
wheel assemblies. Demand for wagons is 500 nos. a week.
The wheel assembly capacity is 1200 sets a week, the handle assembly capacity is 450
a week, and a final assembly can produce 550 wagons a week.

a. 450 units per week


a. What is the capacity of the factory?
b. What limits the throughput of the factory? b. Throughput is limited by the handle assembly operation
c. How many wheel assemblies should be made? c. 900 wheel assemblies per week
d. What is the utilization of the wheel assembly?
d. Utilization of the wheel assemblies = 900 ÷ 1200 = 75%
e. What happens if utilization is 100%?
e. Excess inventory of wheel assemblies.

(Each wagon requires two sets of wheel assembly).


260
Bottleneck principles

1. Utilization of a non-bottleneck resource is not determined by its potential, but


by another constraint in the system.
2. Utilization of a non-bottleneck 100% of the time does not produce 100%
utilization.
3. The capacity of the system depends on the capacity of the bottleneck.
4. Time saved at a non-bottleneck saves the system nothing.
5. Capacity and priority must be considered together.
6. Loads can and should be split.
7. Focus should be on balancing the flow in the shop.

Process 1 Process 2 Process 3 Process 4


5 per hour 7 per hour 4 per hour 9 per hour
261
Managing bottlenecks

1. Establish a time buffer before each bottleneck.


2. Control the rate of material feeding the bottleneck.
3. Do everything to provide the bottleneck with capacity.
4. Adjust loads.
5. Change the schedule.

Back schedule before the bottleneck; forward schedule after the


bottleneck.

Process 1 Process 2 Process 3 Process 4


5 per hour 7 per hour 4 per hour 9 per hour

262
Theory of constraints

263
Theory of constraints-1/3
1. Identify the constraint

Process 1 Process 2 Process 3 Process 4


5 per hour 7 per hour 4 per hour 9 per hour

Marketing sells
5 per hour?

264
Theory of constraints-2/3

2. Exploit the constraint.

3. Subordinate everything to the constraint.

4. Elevate the constraint.

5. Once the constraint is a constraint no-longer, find the new one and repeat the steps.

265
Drum-Buffer-Rope analogy

Drum
 Pace of production set by the constraint
Buffer
 Inventory established before the constraint
Rope
 Coordinated release of material

run in each work center based on capacities and
priorities.

Priority: The sequence in which jobs should run at a work


center.

278
Dispatching rules

FCFS - First come, first served


EDD - Earliest job due date
ODD - Earliest operation due date
SPT - Shortest processing time

CR - Critical ratio

CR = due date - present date


lead time remaining

lead time remaining. Calculate actual time remaining and critical ratio
of each order.

Order Due date Lead time


remaining (days)
A 185 20
B 195 20
C 205 20

Lead time remaining is remaining manufacturing time (= queue + setup + processing + wait + move time).
282
Critical ratio

CR = due date - present date


lead time remaining

= actual time remaining


lead time remaining

CR < 1 Behind Schedule


CR = 1 On Schedule
CR > 1 Ahead of Schedule
CR < 0 Already late
Lead time remaining is remaining manufacturing time (= queue + setup + processing + wait + move time).
283

Chapter-8: Forecasting

335
Demand forecasting

A projection of past information into expectation of


demand in the future. Levels of detail may include:
 Individual products/Product families/Product categories
 Market sectors
 Resources

Demand management includes-


 Forecasting
 Order promising
 Making delivery promises

336
Some forecasting techniques

Qualitative
 based on judgment, intuition, and informed opinions
Quantitative
 Extrinsic – based on external indicators that relate to
demand. Regression.
 Intrinsic – the use of historical data to create
forecast. Time series forecasting.

337
Typical demand patterns

 Trend (upward or downward, linear or non-linear)


 Cyclicality
 Seasonality (cyclicality with of less than 1 year)
 Random variations

338
Components of a time series

Level Cyclic

Trend Random

339
Time series examples

Simple Moving Average..2

Use Simple Moving Average when the data has level (but no
trend or seasonality) and has random random fluctuations.
Simple moving average removes random fluctuations
(smoothens the data) leaving only the level.

343
Simple Moving Average…3

How to choose the moving period- 2, 3, 4 or X days?

1. Make forecast with 2, 3, 4 and X days.


2. Choose that period which gives least MAD (Mean
Absolute Deviation).

Exponential smoothing

• Basic Formula:

New Forecast = α * Latest Demand + (1 – α ) Previous Forecast

• α is a smoothing constant, always between 0 and 1 in value

• See Excel file- “Forecasting” in Taxila.

346
Exponential Smoothing..2

Use Exponential Smoothing when the data has level (but no


trend or seasonality) and has random random fluctuations.
Exponential Smoothing removes random fluctuations
(smoothens the data) leaving only the level.

Unlike Simple Moving average- which gives equal weightage


to all past data points, Exponential gives higher weightage to
recent past data points.

347
Exponential Smoothing…3

• How to choose the smoothing constant- 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 or 0.X?

1. Make forecast with 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.X days.


2. Choose that smoothing constant which gives least MAD (Mean
Absolute Deviation).

348
Seasonal index…1

 For each season, can compute a seasonal index:

Seasonal Index = (Period average demand)/(Average


Demand for all periods)

 Index can be used as a multiplier for future seasons

• See Excel file- “Forecasting” in Taxila.

350
Basic principles of forecasting

 Forecasts are usually incorrect – most demand is


dependent on so many variables it is impossible to capture
the impact of all.

 Forecasts are more accurate


 For families or groups of products
 For time periods closer to the present
 Every forecast should include and estimate of error

351
Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD)

• MAD = (Sum of absolute deviations)/(Number of deviations)


• A positive number that indicates the average value of forecast
error during the time of evaluation

• See Excel file- “Forecasting” in Taxila.

352
Forecast Bias

 Systematic error in which the actual demand is


consistently above or below the forecasted
demand.

 A good forecasting method should not have


forecast bias.

 When forecast bias exists, change/improve the


forecasting method.

353
Tracking signal

• TS = sum of forecast errors/MAD

• High TS value (positive or negative) means that the forecast method is biased, hence it needs
correction.

Cumulative Tracking
Period Forecast Actual Deviation deviation signal

P/D Ratio

• P- Production lead time


• D- demand lead time

• Aim to keep low P/D ratio.

Key terms

 Exploding – process of multiplying requirements by usage to get BOM requirements.

 Lead time –time required to produce a lot or procure from the supplier.

 Offsetting – Placing requirements in the proper period based on lead time.

 Planned orders – Orders planned during the explosion, but not yet released for
processing.

 Firm Planned orders – Orders not yet released, but “frozen” in quantity and time to reduce
system “nervousness.”

 Low-level code – a part is given lowest level if it appears on multiple levels in the Bill of
Materials.

 Bottom-up replanning – actions to correct for changed conditions made as low as possible
in the product structure.

Capacity planning

368
Capacity definition

Capacity is defined as the output rate of a machine or a group of


machines (workshop, factory, etc.).

• Sorting machine- letters/hour


• Drilling machine- parts/minute
• Drilling work centre- parts/day
• Car production- numbers/month
• Brewery- litres/hour
• Refinery- tonnes/day
• Textile mill- square meters/month
• Port cargo handling- tons/day
• Toll gate- vehicles/hour

370
Inputs for Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP)

• Open order
• A released order for a quantity of a part to be manufactured and completed
on a specific date. An open shop order appears as Scheduled Receipt on
MRP.
• Planned Order Release
• Planned orders are determined by MRP logic based on Gross
Requirements, Inventory, and Manufacturing lead-time.
• Work center
• A work centre is a group of machines or workers capable of doing the
same work.
• Data required on manufacturing lead-times.
• Routings
• A routing is the path that work follows from one work center to another as it
is completed.

371
Manufacturing Lead time

Manufacturing lead time is sum of-


 Queue time- time spent waiting before the work center.
 Setup time- time to prepare the work center.
 Run time- time required to make the product.
 Wait time- time spent after the operation, waiting to be moved.
 Move time- transit time between work centers.

372
Routing

Routing is the sequence of operations that will done on a


part or material.

Example
• Operation 1: Rough cutting
• Operation 2: Milling-1
• Operation 3: Drilling-2
• Operation 4: Drilling-3
• Operation 5: Milling-2
• Operation 6: Grinding
• Operation 7: Polishing

373
Routing file- a sample

Routing file has following data-


• Operations to be performed.
• Work centre required for each Operation.
• The sequence in which Operations will be done.
• Standard setup time and run time.

374
Measuring capacity

375
Output rate of a work center depends on
Capacity is defined as the output rate of a machine or a group of machines (workshop, factory, etc.)

 Product specification
 Types of operation- drilling, cutting, welding, packing.
 A long cut takes longer than a short cut on a milling machine.
 Product mix
 Single or Multiple products produced on the same machine.
 A plant can manufacture more number of single model of a car than
total number of 3 models of a car.
 Method used to make the product
 Manual, semi automatic, or automatic.
 Machine with auto-feed has higher output than one with manual feed.
 Pace of work
 Slow or fast.
 A faster machine process more number of parts.

376
Output and Input capacity

 Units of output- tons/hr, cars/day


 Called output capacity.
 Output capacity is used when the variety of products produced is
narrow. Examples: Refinery, Automobile factory.

 Standard time- hours


 Called input capacity.
 Input capacity is used when the variety of outputs produced is large.
Examples- General purpose machine, Job shops, Consultants.
 Capacity of work centres is usually measured in Standard time.

377
Rated capacity

Rated Capacity = Available time x Utilization x Efficiency

 Available time = number of hours the work centre can be used


 hours in day (8, 16 or 24), no. of days in a week (5, 6 or 7).

 Utilization = hours worked/available hours


 Deduct- maintenance, lack of material, absenteeism, etc.
 Utilization is computed from past data, also called demonstrated capacity.

 Efficiency = actual production rate/standard production rate


 Working faster or slower than the standard pace.
 Standard production rate is estimated by Work study.

378
Example-1 (Textbook p.118)

A work center consists of 4 machines and is operated 8 hours per day for 5
days a week. Historically the utilization has been 85% and efficiency 110%.
What is the rated capacity of work center?

Available time = 4 x 8 x 5 = 160 hours per week.


Rated capacity = Available time x Utilization x Efficiency
= 160 * 0.85 * 1.10 = 149.6 standard hours per week

379
Example-2 (Textbook p.119)

• Over a 4-week period, a work center produced 540 standard hours of work.
The work center was available for work for 640 hours but it actually worked
for 480 hours. Calculate utilization and efficiency of the work center.

• Utilization = hours actually worked/ available hours x 100


= 480/640 x 100 = 75%

• Efficiency = Standard hours of work produced/hours actually produced x 100


= 540/480 x 100 = 112.5%

380
Basic capacity definitions

 Capacity Required (or Load)– capacity needed to produce desired


output in a given time period.

 Capacity Planning– determining the resources and methods needed to


meet the priority plan.

 Capacity Control– monitoring production, comparing with the capacity


plan, and taking appropriate corrective actions.

 Capacity Management– determining capacity needed as well as


providing, monitoring, and controlling the capacity.
 Capacity Management = Capacity Planning + Capacity control.

381
Capacity required (Load)

382
Capacity Required (Load) for an order

Capacity required to process an order on a machine depends on

• Run time,
• Time required to process a single unit.

• Order size
• Number of units to be produced.

• Setup time (also called changeover time)


• Time required for changing the dies, tools, and adjustments.
• Setup time is does not depend on number of units to be produced.

Capacity Required (Load) = Setup time + Run time x Order size

383
Example (Textbook p.119)

An order has been released to process 150 nos. of a part on a work center.
The setup time of the machine is 1.5 hours and the run time is 0.2 hours per
piece. What is the standard time needed for the order?

Total standard time = Setup time + Run time x Order size


= 1.5 + 0.2 *150
= 31.5 standard hours.

If the work center efficiency is 120% and utilization is 80%, how much actual
time is needed to run the order?

Actual time = Capacity required/(Efficiency x Utilization)


= 31.5 / (1.2 x 0.8) = 32.8 hours.

384
Work center load over a single week

A work center has following released orders and planned orders for Week
no. 20. Calculate total standard time on this work center.

Order
Order quantity, Setup time, Run time, Total time,
No. nos. hours hours/piece hours
Released Load 222 100 0 0.2 20.0
Released Load 223 150 1.5 0.2 31.5 Total time = Setup time + Run time * Order size
Planned Load 444 200 3 0.25 53.0
Planned Load 445 300 2.5 0.15 47.5

Total 152.0

Total Released Load is 20 + 31.5 = 51.5 hours


Total Planned Load is 53 + 47.5 = 100.5 hours
Total Standard time on this work center is 51.5 + 100.5 = 152 hours.

387
Managing the capacity

If the load and capacity do not match-

 Adjust the load:


 Adjusting the load is not preferred because it may require
changing the schedule of other components.

 Adjust the capacity


 Schedule overtime or under-time.
 Adjust the level of workforce.
 Shift workers from underload to overload work centers.
 Use alternative work centers to shift the load.
 Subcontract the work when more capacity is needed.

388
• Remaining slides will be covered in the next lecture.

389
Scheduling the Orders

390
Scheduling the Orders

 Back scheduling (the typical approach)


 Start with the due date, use manufacturing lead time to find
the proper start date for each operation.

 Forward scheduling
 Launch the order into the first work center, then use the lead
times to find when the order will be completed at each work
center.

391
Example- 1/3 (Textbook p.122, 123)

Problem
There is an order for 150 nos. of gear shaft. The due date is day 135. The route sheet-
giving details of the operations to be performed, the work center on which each operation
will be performed, and the setup times and run times- is given below.
The work center file- giving details of the queue time, wait time, and move time- for each
work center is also given below.
Calculate the start and finish dates for each work center.

14 3 1 1
17 5 1 1
03 8 1 1

392
Example- 2/3 (Textbook p.122, 123)

Computing the Operation time for Order size of 150 pieces

Operation 10 at work center 12: 1.50 + 0.20 * 150 = 31.5 hrs ... 4 days.
Operation 20 at work center 14: 0.50 + 0.25 * 150 = 38 hrs… 5 days.
Operation 30 at work center 17: 0.30 + 0.05 * 150 = 7.8 hrs… 1 day.
Operation 40 at work center 03: 0.45 + 0.10 * 150 = 15.45 hrs... 2 days.

Operation time = Setup time + Run time * Order size

Forecast bias

401
Basic principles of forecasting

 Forecasts are usually inaccurate.


 Demand depends on several factors and in complex ways. It is not
possible to capture the impact of all.

 Forecasts are more accurate for-


 Families or groups of products than a specific model- demand for
motor cycles vs demand for Model-A motor cycle;.
 Short-time forecasts than long-term forecasts.

402
Forecast bias

 Forecasts are biased if they are consistently


above or consistently below the actual demand.
This is called forecast bias. Forecasts in the
adjacent figure has bias since forecasts are
always below the actual demand.

 A good forecasting method should not have


forecast bias. When the forecast bias is detected,
change/improve the forecasting method.

 The forecasting method should also be


changed/improved, if the forecast is found to
deviate a lot from the actual demand. In the
adjacent figure, forecasts deviate a lot from the
actual demand in period 8 and 9.

403
Tracking Signal (TS)

Tracking Signal (TS) = Cumulative Forecast Deviation/MAD

Cumulative MAD value is 2.0, given. Estimated


Forecast Tracking from previous data.
Period Forecast Actual Deviation deviation Signal (TS)
Cumulative deviation of forecast
0 5 from actual demand till period 0 is 5.
1 100 96 -4 1 0.5 Estimated from previous data.
2 100 98 -2 -1 -0.5
3 100 104 4 3 1.5
4 100 110 10 13 6.5
• High TS value (positive or negative) means that the forecast method is biased,
hence it needs correction. At period 4, TS is 6.5, more than 3*MAD= 3*2 = 6.

404
Dealing with inaccurate forecasts

 Production (or Delivery) lead time (P)


 Demand lead time (D).

To deal with inaccurate forecasts-


• Keep P/D ratio low.
• Make long duration forecasts- it increases D.
• Customise the product late, closer to the final
assembly- it reduces P.
• Contingency planning- keep safety stock to deal
with the situations when actual demand turns
out to be higher than the forecast.

415
Financial inventory performance
measures

416
Financial measures of inventory

1. Average inventory= (Opening inventory + Closing inventory)/2

2. Inventory turns = (Annual cost of goods sold)/(Average value of inventory)


 Inventory turns = 1 means average inventory is 1 year’s of sales; Inventory turns =2 means
average inventory is 6 months’ of sales; Inventory turns of 52 means average inventory is one
week’s of sales. High Inventory turns indicates higher efficiency. Inventory turns is high in JIT
manufacturing systems.

3. Days of inventory = (Average value of inventory)/(Daily cost of goods sold)

ABC Analysis

423
ABC analysis

 Factories keep inventories of hundreds of items.


 ABC analysis is used to classify the large number of items in
inventory into three categories- A-class, B-class, and C-class items.
The classification is based on annual usage in dollar value .
 Inventory of A-class items- which are few- is tightly controlled and
kept low. A-class items are purchased when required and in small
quantities.
 The inventory of C-class items- which are numerous- is not tightly
controlled. C-class items are purchased in bulk quantities.
 ABC analysis aims to reduce the cost of managing inventory-
focusing on controlling the inventory of few high value items.

424
ABC analysis, steps

1. Determine annual usage of each item in dollars


 Annual usage in dollars = annual usage, quantity * cost of the item.

2. Based on annual usage in dollars, classify the items into three


categories- A, B and C-class items.
 A- class items about 20% of items, 80% of value, annual usage in $.
 B-class items about 30% of items, 15% of value, annual usage in $.
 C-class items about 50% of items, 5% of value, annual usage in $.

3. Control the inventory-


 A-class items- Tight control. Order in small quantities.
 B-class items- Normal control.
 C-class items- Simple control. Order in large quantities.
