Process Strategies
Process value creation activities Process strategy organizations approach for producing goods or providing services Objective
Product-Process Matrix
Low-Volume (Intermittent) High Variety One or few units per run, high variety (allows customization) Repetitive Process (Modular) High-Volume (Continuous) Mass Customization (difficult to achieve, but huge rewards)
Changes in modules Modest runs, standardized modules Changes in attributes (such as grade, quality, size, thickness, etc.) Long runs only Poor strategy
Process-Focused Strategy
Facilities are organized around specific activities or processes General purpose equipment and skilled personnel
Product flows may vary considerably making planning and scheduling a challenge
Operations and Service Management
7
Process Focused
Job shop
Many departments and many routings
Many inputs
Advantages
Greater product flexibility More general purpose equipment equipment not dedicated to one product
Disadvantages
High variable cost More highly trained personnel More difficult production planning & control Low equipment utilization (5% to 25%)

Product-Focused Strategy
Facilities are organized by product High volume, low variety Conversion or further processing of undifferentiated materials such as petroleum, chemicals, or beer Follows a predetermined sequence of steps, but flow is continuous rather than discrete highly standardized Other names

17
Advantages
Lower variable cost per unit Lower but more specialized labor skills Easier production planning and control Higher equipment utilization (70% to 90%) Lower product flexibility More specialized equipment
Disadvantages
18
Product-Focused Examples
Noodles (Continuous, then Discrete)
19
Mass Customization
Using technology and imagination to rapidly mass-produce products that cater to unique customer desires Under mass customization the three process models become so flexible that distinctions between them blur, making variety and volume issues less significant
20
Process Strategies
Repetitive Focus
Modular design Flexible equipment
Process-focused
Product-focused
Is the process designed to achieve competitive advantage in terms of differentiation, response, or low cost? Does the process eliminate steps that do not add value? Does the process maximize customer value as perceived by the customer? Will the process win orders?

Flow Diagrams Schematic of movement of materials Helps understanding, analysis and communication of a process Time-Function Mapping Flow diagram with time on horizontal axis Nodes indicate activities and branches indicate flow direction Helps to identify and eliminate waste such as extra steps, duplication, and delay
Operations and Service Management
23
Process Charts Use symbols, time and distance in a structured way to analyze and record activities Allows focus on value-added activities Service Blue-printing For products with a high service content Focuses on customer and providers interaction with customer Identifies failure points and uses poka-yokes to avoid failures

Effective capacity:
Utilization: Efficiency:
40
Utilization
Measure of planned or actual capacity usage of a facility, work center, or machine
Utilization Actual Output = Design Capacity Planned hours to be used = Total hours available
41
Efficiency
Measure of how well a facility or machine is performing when used
Efficiency Actual output = Effective Capacity Actual output in units = Standard output in units

Managing Demand
Demand exceeds capacity curtail demand by raising prices, scheduling long lead times, etc Capacity exceeds demand stimulate demand through price reductions, aggressive marketing, etc Adjusting to seasonal demands offer products with complementary demand patterns pdts for which demand is high for one when low for the other
46
Managing Capacity
Making staffing changes (increasing or decreasing the number of employees) 2. Adjusting equipment and processes which might include purchasing additional machinery or selling or leasing out existing equipment 3. Improving methods to increase throughput; and/or 4. Redesigning the product to facilitate more throughput

Breakeven Analysis
Technique for evaluating process & equipment alternatives Objective: Find the point ($ or units) at which total cost equals total revenue Assumptions
Revenue & costs are related linearly to volume All information is known with certainty No time value of money

Crossover Chart
Smooth Boards Inc., wants to enter the market quickly with a new finish on its ski boards. It has three choices: Repair the old equipment at a cost of $800, Make major modifications at the cost of $1,100, or Purchase new equipment at a net cost of $1,800 If the firm chooses to repair the old equipment, materials and labor cost would be $1.10 per board. If it chooses to make modifications, materials and labor cost would be $0.70 per board. If it buys new equipment, variable costs are estimated at $0.40 per board. Graph the three total cost lines on the same chart (preferably on graph paper) Which alternative would be chosen if more than 3,000 ski-boards can be sold? Which alternative should the firm use if it thinks the market for boards would be between 1,000 and 2,000? What are the cross-over points from the graph? Operations and Service Management
