Q

Group technology

A

product and component coding system that specifies the
size, shape, and type of processing; it allows similar products to be grouped.

22
Q

Assembly drawing

A

exploded view of a product.

23
Q

Assembly chart

A

identifying how components flow into
subassemblies and final products.

24
Q

Route sheet

A

list of the operations necessary to produce a component with the
material specified in the bill of material.

25
Q

Configuration management

A

a product’s planned and
changing components are accurately identified.

26
Q

To enhance service efficiency

A

(1) limit options, (2) delay customization,
(3) modularize, (4) automate, and (5) design for the “moment of truth.”

27
Q

To form a decision tree,

A

(1) include all possible alternatives and states of nature;
(2) enter payoffs at the end of the appropriate branch;
(3) determine the expected value of each course of action by starting at the end
of the tree and working toward the beginning, calculating values at each step and
“pruning” inferior alternatives.
*uses probabilities, payoffs, logic, options

28
Q

Transition to production

A

move a product from
development to production;

29
Q

Product development system

A

Functional Specifications

30
Q

j Process strategy

A

organization’s approach to transforming resources into
goods and services => meets
customer requirements and product specifications within cost and other managerial
constraints.

31
Q

four
process strategies.

A
  • Process focus: processes to facilitate low- volume,
    high-variety production.
    *making low-volume, high-variety products, also known as job shops/intermittent process.
    *high variable costs with extremely low utilization
    (5% to 25%) of facilities.
  • Repetitive process: process that uses modules.
    *is the classic assembly line. It allows the firm to use modules, allow combination the economic advantages of the product-focused model with the customization advantages of the process-focus model.
  • Product focus: a product-oriented, high-
    volume, low-variety process.
    *requires high fixed cost;
    however, low variable costs reward high facility utilization.
    -Mass customization:low-cost production that caters to constantly changing unique customer desires.
32
Q

Postponement

A

delay of any modifications or customization as long as posible

33
Q

Crossover chart

A

chart of costs at the possible volumes

34
Q

Selection of equipment

A

cost, quality,
capacity, and flexibility.

35
Q

Five tools of process analysis

A

(1) flowcharts, (2) time-function mapping,
(3) process charts, (4) value-stream mapping, and (5) service blueprinting.

36
Q

Process charts

A

that use symbols to analyze the movement of people or
material.
*focus on value-added activities and to compute
the percentage of value-added time (5 operation time/total time).

37
Q

Value-stream mapping

A

how to add value in the flow of material and information

38
Q

Service blueprinting

A

a focus on the customer and the provider’s interaction

39
Q

Services can be classified into one of four quadrants,

A
  1. Service factory 2. Service shop 3. Mass service 4. Professional service
40
Q

Techniques for improving service productivity

A
  • Separation: customers must go where the service is offered
  • Self-service: customer evaluating theirself
  • Postponement
  • Focus—Restricting the offerings
  • Modules
  • Automation:
  • Scheduling—Precise personnel scheduling
  • Training—Clarifying the service options; explaining how to avoid problems
