Business 101 Midterm 2- MANUFACTURING
what are the steps in PERT
1. analyze tasks 2. estimates time to complete task 3. draw PERT network 4. identify critical path (sequence of tasks)
computer integrated manufacturing (CIM)
CAD and CAM cuts time by 80% but can be expensive
what does PERT do?
analyzes steps in production
assembly process
assembly of goods
inter firm process
companies work closely together to design, produce, and ship products
Materials requirement planning (MRP)
computer-based operations management system that uses sales forecast to make sure needed parts/materials are available at the right time and place
production
creation of finished gods or services using factors of the land, labor, capital, entrapranuarship, and knowledge
flexible manufacturing
design machines to do multiple tasks so firm can produce a variety of products
what can facility location have a direct affect on and why?
economy around the location because it provides jobs for people in the area in multiple aspects
what does operations management help with?
facility location and layout, purchasing, inventory and quality control, and materials requirement layout (customer experience)
what are the outputs in the production process?
goods, services, and ideas
production management
helps firm create goods
what are the three main steps in the production process
inputs, production control, and outputs
what are the two types of production?
inter mitten process continuous process
what are inputs in the production process?
land, labor, capital knowledge, materials
mass production
large number of limited variety of products at low cost produced
continuous process
long production runs turn out finished good over time(made possible by tech)
what do you consider when choking a facility location?
low costs, shipping, where the resources you need are located in relation to facility, labor with quality
mass customization
making a unique product or provide a specific service to specific individuals (usually use machines and tech for this)
what is production control in the production process?
panning, routing, scheduling, dispatching, followup
process manufacturing
part of production that physically or chemically changes materials
lean manufacturing
production of goods and services using less of everything than in mass production
inter mitten process
production runs in batches
what does PERT stand for?
program evaluation review technique
computer aided design (CAD)
tech designs products
computer aided manufacturing (CAM)
tech manufactures products
operation management
transforms resources including Human Resources (tech skills) into goods and services
form utility
value producers add to the material in creation of finished goods and services
