The production system

A production system is traditionally defined as a system that uses resources to transform

inputs into desired outputs.

It is possible also to measure the productivity of individual factors:

Productivity of capital:

Productivity of labor:

Productivity of materials:

These monetary indicators are built on budgetary data and have a very low diagnostic value

These are fundamental values that summarize the status of a

production system in different units of measurement

WIP (Work In Process)

Operating condition = state of a process that can influence a

Set-up time

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 14

It refers to the time required to get a machine, a device or a plant ready to produce a new

product (different from the previous produced and for which the equipment was set).

The set-up is linked, depending on every single situation and technology, for example to the

need to change tools (in machining), to make washing (in chemical production), to make

adjustments, etc..

The set-up entails a waste of productive time: the larger is the size of the set-up, the

higher is the waste of productive time.

Page 15: Tutoring Fundamentals of OM - UniBG of OM_2017.pdf · Tutoring Fundamentals of OM Operations Management Dr. Alice Rondini D. Alice Rondini Università degli Studi di Bergamo –Riproduzione

Lead Time

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 15

In the most general sense the Lead Time is the time required to carry out an

operation or a set of operations

- Lead Time of supply: interim between the need for raw materials and the instant when

raw materials ordered are in the warehouse.

- Lead Time in storage: interim between when the material is placed in the warehouse

and when it is withdrawn

- Process Lead Time: interim between when you know about an order of production and

the related raw materials are available in the warehouse, and when the finished products

are stocked in the final warehouse.

WIP- Work in Process

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 17

WIP optimizes the use of machines, but it hides the problems of the factory, immobilizes the materials

and takes up space.

Before removing it, it is important to measure it.

To do so it is necessary to know:

the product structure (Bill of Materials)

the amount of each component (coefficient of use)

its relative value

the time of production / supply

the lot size

the delivery date

WIP (Work In Process): can be defined as the amount of materials that are involved in the

production process as raw materials, semi-finished or finished products. The WIP can also be

measured as hours of work conferred to the materials

Representation of a Production System

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 19

There are three ways to represent a production system:

1. STRUCTURAL APPEARANCE

2. PROCESS FLOWCHARTING

3. PROCEDURAL ISSUES

Structural appearance

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 20

It statically describes the physical set of units of a production system

The representation adopted is the layout. It represents on a map the allocation of all the technological

resources that are part of a production system.

It gives an idea of the physical layout of the various operating stations in the system.

Process Flowcharting

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 21

Process flowcharting is the use of a diagram to present the major elements of a process. It can be qualitative or quantitative.

It highlights the logical sequence of all the phases of a production system

It is an ideal methodology to analyze a process.

These basic elements can include:

• tasks or operations• flows of materials or customers• decision points• storage areas or queues.

Inventory Management

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 34

- In the forecasting management the demand is not known a priori with

certainty, but it is sure only when it occurs.

- The demand shall be considered as a random variable. To ensure the

presence of material, it is necessary to have stocks.

Stock = any tangible goods (with the exception of building, plants and

transports) bought by the company and stored in a warehouse waiting to be

used.

Inventory Management

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 35

Manage inventory means:

- Decide what to order

- Decide how much to order

- Decide when to order

Example of methods:

- Reorder point: an order of a fixed quantity (EOQ) is placed when the stock reaches the reorder point

- Fixed Time-Period: an order of a variable quantity is placed in pre-determined intervals (such as a week or a month)

The APP is not the forecast of the demand, but the forecast of the

production

The APP provides the input to the following MPS: the sum of the detailed

MPS should match the APP

Scheduling

The scheduling specifies what, how much, when and where to produce considering:- A single lot of a single product in a single machine

- Very short time horizon (1 week)

- Short time bucket (day or hour)

- Data: planned production order (MRP), resource availability, current state of the production system

It is the last stage of planning before production occurs

Critical aspects

Università degli Studi di Bergamo – Riproduzione Riservata 61

Big quantity of technological and management data to consider

Uncertainty of the work dataVariability (es. product versions, urgencies, ecc.)

Unforeseeable factors (es. breakdown)

Hazardous factors (es. manufacture time, rendering, ecc.)

Difficulty in defining the objectives Is it better to aim at efficiency (es. saturation of machineries, reduced WIP, ...) or at

efficacy (reduced time of completion, minimizing of delays…)?
