Q

Strategic business plan

A

A statement of long-range strategy and revenue, cost, and profit objectives.

30
Q

Sales and operations planning

A

The process that brings together all the functional business plans (marketing, operations, engineering, and finance) into one integrated plan.

31
Q

Marketing plan

A

Identifies the markets to be served, desired levels of customer service, product competitive advantage, profit margins, and the market share needed to achieve the objectives of the strategic business plan.

32
Q

Aggregate plan

A

Includes the budgeted levels of finished products, inventory, backlogs, workforce size, and aggregate production rate needed to support the marketing plan.

33
Q

Financial plan

A

Identifies the sources and uses of funds; projects cash flows, profits, return on investment; and provides budgets in support of the strategic business plan.

34
Q

Engineering plan

A

Identifies new products or modifications to existing products that are needed to support the marketing plan.

35
Q

Master production schedule

A

The anticipated production schedule for the company expressed in specific configurations, quantities, and dates.

36
Q

Demand-based options

A

A group of options that respond to demand fluctuations through the use of inventory or back orders, or by shifting the demand
pattern.

37
Q

Capacity-based options

A

A group of options that allow the firm to change its current operating capacity.

38
Q

Finished goods inventory

A

Products available for shipment to the customer.

39
Q

Back orders

A

Unfilled customer orders.

40
Q

Shifting demand

A

A marketing strategy that attempts to shift demand from peak periods to nonpeak periods to smooth out the demand pattern.

41
Q

Overtime

A

Work beyond normal established operation hours that usually requires a premium be paid to the workers.

42
Q

Undertime

A

A condition occurring when there are more people on the payroll than are needed to produce the planned output.

43
Q

Subcontracting

A

Sending production work outside to another manufacturer or service provider.

44
Q

Hiring and firing

A

Long-term option for increasing or decreasing capacity.

45
Q

Point of departure

A

The percentage of normal capacity the company is currently using.

46
Q

Magnitude of the change

A

The relative size of the change needed.

47
Q

Duration of the change

A

The expected length of time the different capacity level is needed.

48
Q

Level aggregate plan

A

A planning approach that produces the same quantity each time period. Inventory and back orders are used to absorb demand fluctuations. A level aggregate plan maintains a constant workforce and produces the same amount of product in each time period of the plan.

49
Q

Chase aggregate plan

A

produces exactly what is needed to satisfy demand during each period. The production rate changes in response to demand fluctuations. Whereas the level aggregate plan sets capacity to accommodate average demand, the chase aggregate plan sets labor and equipment capacity to satisfy demand each period.

50
Q

Hybrid aggregate plan

A

A planning approach that uses a combination of level and chase approaches while developing the aggregate plan.

51
Q

Enterprise resource planning (ERP)

A

Large, sophisticated software systems used for identifying and planning the enterprise-wide resources needed to coordinate all activities involved in producing and delivering products.

52
Q

SCM software

A

Designed to improve decision making in the supply chain.

53
Q

Closed-loop MRP

A

An MRP system that includes production planning, master production scheduling, and capacity requirements planning.

54
Q

Manufacturing resource planning (MRP II)

A

A method for the effective planning and integration of all internal resources.

55
Q

Material requirements planning (MRP)

A

A system that uses the MPS, inventory record data, and BOM to calculate material requirements.

56
Q

Backward scheduling

A

Starts with the due date for an order and works backward to determine the start date for each activity.

57
Q

Capacity requirements planning (CRP)

A

Determines the labor and machine resources needed to fill the open and planned orders generated by the MRP. CRP enables a company to evaluate both the feasibility of the MRP system and how well the company is using its critical work centers.

58
Q

Precedence relationships

A

Establishes the sequencing of activities to ensure that all necessary activities are completed before a subsequent activity is begun.

59
Q

A

Lists all the subassemblies, component parts, and raw materials that go into an end item and shows the usage quantity of each required.

60
Q

Independent demand

A

The demand for an item is unrelated to the demand for other items.

61
Q

Dependent demand

A

The demand for component parts is based on the number of end items being produced.

62
Q

Time-phased

A

Expressing future demand, supply, and inventories by time period.

63
Q

Open shop orders

A

Released manufacturing orders.

64
Q

A

planning technique, with deterministic times, used to determine a project’s planned completion date and identify the project’s critical path.

71
Q

Project activities

A

Specific tasks that must be completed and that require resources.
