38
Q

is the process of identifying the best geographic location for a service or production facility. Location of plants should be based on the company’s expansion plan and policy, diversification for the products, changing sources of raw materials and many other factors.

A

Location of Facilities

38
Q

Location of plants should be based on the company’s expansion plan and policy, diversification for the products, changing sources of raw materials and many other factors.

A

Location of Facilities

39
Q

refers to the physical arrangement of facilities. It is the configuration of departments, work centers and equipment in the conversion process.

A

Plant layout

40
Q

refers to the moving of materials from the storeroom to the machine and from one machine to the next during the process of manufacture. It is also defined as the art and science of moving, packing and storing of products in any form.

A

Material Handling

41
Q

It is also defined as the art and science of moving, packing and storing of products in any form.

A

Material Handling

42
Q

Developing the new products and launching them in market is the biggest challenge faced by the organizations. The entire process of need identification to physical manufacturers of product involves three functions: marketing, product development, and manufacturing.

A

Product design

42
Q

deals with conversion of ideas into reality.

A

Product design

43
Q

is a macroscopic decision-making of an overall process route for converting the raw material into finished goods.

A

Process Design

44
Q

These decisions encompass the selection of a process, choice of technology, process flow analysis and layout of the facilities.

A

Process Design

45
Q

can be defined as the process of planning the production in advance, setting the exact route of each item, fixing the starting and finishing dates for each time, to give production orders to shops and to follow up the progress of products according to orders.

A

Production Planning & Controlling

46
Q

‘First Plan Your Work and then Work on Your Plan’

A

Production Planning & Controlling

47
Q

is deciding in advance what to do, how to do it, when to do it and who to do it and who is to do it. Planning bridges the gap from where we are, to where we want to go. It makes possible for things to occur which would not otherwise happen.

A

Planning

48
Q

may be defined as the selection of path which each part of the product will follow, which being transformed from raw materials to finished products. Routing determines the most advantageous path to be followed from department to department and machine to machine till raw materials gets its final shape.

A

Routing

49
Q

determines the program for the operations. Scheduling may be defined as ‘the fixation of time and date for each operation’ as well as it determines the sequence of operations to be followed.

A

Scheduling

50
Q

is concerned with starting the processes. It gives authority so as to start a particular work, which has already been planned under the ‘Routing’ and ‘Scheduling’. Therefore, dispatching is ‘release of orders and instruction for the starting of production for any item in acceptance with the route sheet and schedule charts’.

A

Dispatching

51
Q

this has function of reporting the daily progress of work in each shop in a prescribed preformat and to investigate the causes of deviations from the planned performance.

A

Follow-up,

52
Q

may be defined as ‘a system that is used to maintain a desired level of quality in a product or service’. It is a systematic control of various factors that affect the quality of the product.

A

Quality control

53
Q

aims at prevention of defects at the source, relies on effective feedback system and corrective action procedure.

A

Quality control

54
Q

is that aspect of management function which is primarily concerned with the acquisition, control and use of materials needed and flow of goods and services connected with the production process having some predetermined objectives in view.

A

Materials management

55
Q

In modern industry, equipment and machinery are a very important part of the total productive effort. Therefore, their idleness or downtime becomes very expensive

A

Maintenance Management

56
Q

are characterized by manufacturing of one or few quantity of products designed and produced as per the specification of customers within prefixed time and cost.

A

Job – shop production

57
Q

is a production methodology in which products are manufactured in groups called batches rather than in a continuous fashion.

A

A

Process Production

60
Q

The flexibility of these plants is almost zero because only one product can be produced.

A

Process Production

61
Q

This refers to the process used to extract products such as oil and gas.

A

Process Production

62
Q

examples of production?

A
  1. manufacturing custom-made products
