...When we are electing the people to serve us we should know their skill set and their history of politics. They should be skilled enough to serve and learn fast. They also should have many connections from their past experience in politics. It's not going to be the easiest job ever, but one of the most rewarding because they are serving the people that support them. I believe if there is congressional term limits we will be placing new leaders that are inspired to serve in office that will do best for our country. Congressional term limits will improve our country’s government by placing the passionate and inspired leaders to serve. This will reduce the chance of corruption and greediness in our government. This will give us citizens a chance to have our voice hear and an opportunity for our country to move forward for the future. Congressional term limits in the United State’s congress will be more of a benefit than a harm it will decrease the amount of corruption by career...

...1. The transfer of some of what are traditional internal activities and resources of a firm to outside vendors is __________. Outsourcing The transfer of some of what are traditional internal activities and resources of a firm to outside vendors is outsourcing. Outsourcing is the term used to describe the decision to move any aspect of a firm's operation to an outside vendor. This is frequently done by businesses that want to focus on areas of the business directly tied to their central operation and competitive advantage. Any task that falls outside of central operations can be outsourced. Make-or-buy decisions are focused on helping a business understand whether it is more advantageous to buy a particular part or product from an outside vendor or to produce the part themselves. Keiretsu is a type of supply-chain strategy that focuses on integrating the two strategies of building relationships with a few suppliers and vertical integration. As with traditional make-or-buy decisions, Keiretsu does include purchasing goods from suppliers. However, make-or-buy decisions and Keiretsu would not typically be considered a type of outsourcing. 2. Keeping a product generic as long as possible before customizing is known as __________. postponement Keeping a product generic as long as possible before customizing is known as postponement.

...CHAPTER 1 PROJECT OVERVIEW Project Background Willard Enterprises started in January 5, 2004 with only a handful of equipment and some basic school supplies and catered to its primary client, the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) College of Engineering and Architecture students. Aside from school supplies, the enterprise primary offers ring binding, photocopy, fax service, printing services, photo printing, and iced cold beverages. Today, Willard’s Enterprises extends the business by putting up a printing business (which specializes in CAD plotting, large format printing, and blue printing), added engineering & architecture supplies and events Management Company. The study focuses only on operations involved in the sales and inventory of products, related to school and office supplies. With this, several problems were identified. Errors in the manual computation for sales and discounts are often experienced. This results in inconsistency of information and worse wrong or lost sales. Also, difficulties abound for matters related to stock and its inventory. Since manual operations are also facilitated for operations such as recording and updating of stock level, it was noted that unreliable information are generated. This issue affects an even more crucial activity, that is, the generation of purchase order. Willard’s Enterprises is having difficulty in maintaining the continuity of purchase order number, delivery notes, and statement of accounts...

...internal performance by using service-specific adaptations of traditional manufacturing cost techniques. These practices provide a consistent framework for analyzing business decisions and examining issues that are more important for service companies. Part I Manufacturing, Merchandising and Service Companies. There are three different types of companies and each type of company will have a slightly different in term of financial statement presentation and cost management also. The main difference is with the cost of goods sold. A manufacturing company uses labor and other inputs to transforms raw materials into finished product and then sells the product, like a merchandising company. But in service company does not produce/sell products, instead it provides service. So service companies usually don’t have a cost of goods sold as they aren’t selling a product, they are selling an idea. As the other two company types; Manufacturing, Merchandising Company are selling a tangible product, they will have a cost of goods sold. 1.1 How are they different in term Cost accounting? Title | Manufacturing company | Merchandising company | Service Company | Inventory | * Raw materials * Work in process * Finish goods | * Merchandise inventory | No inventory | Cost of goods/services | * Cost of goods sold | * Net purchase price | * Cost of rendering of services | Cost of goods manufactured | * Direct materials * Direct labor * Overhead | * ...

...manufacture of products. In understanding the flowchart it is best to look at its relationships and interactions with the other cycles. Using a context diagram, the Production Cycle was shown as being linked to the Revenue Cycle by receiving customer orders and sales forecasts from the Revenue Cycle, and sending finished goods to the revenue cycle. It is linked to the Expenditure Cycle by sending purchase requisitions to order raw materials to the Expenditure Cycle, and the Expenditure Cycle then allocates overhead and raw materials costs to the Production Cycle. The Production Cycle is linked to the Human Resource/Payroll Cycle by requesting labor from HRP, which then allocates the labor costs to the Production Cycle. Management receives reports from the Production Cycle, which sends cost of goods produced information to the General Ledger and Reporting System. The overall performance of the Production Cycle can be improved through technology. The entire process should be integrated, using relational databases linked to internal and external sources as part of an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) operation. CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) using robots and on-line terminals can rapidly implement production plans, reducing costs. Data about the costs of production, stored in the work in process file and used in cost accounting, can be integrated with production operations information regarding the physical aspects of the manufacturing...

...Strategic Management – C570 Chapter 1 – Identify Long/Short Term Process & Outcome Goals for Staffing Knowing that the company has a 20% turn over in Full Time Employees and an average 15% turn over in Part Time Employees, I believe they should assess their mix of full and part time staff. It would be beneficial and potentially cost saving if the company can increase its part time staff, reduce full time staff, thus, if all things remain constant, realize a lower turnover ratio while paying less in overall benefits and compensation by changing the mix of employees. Determining the proper mix of staffing efficiently will be a key driver in the overall HR process and hiring outcome and should be a long term goal of the company to keep a focus on turn over ratio and cost savings. While still retaining the ability to move a part time employee into a full time position, a full time associate into a management position, etc. Being mindful that the company has an aggressive plan to open 15 stores per year over a projected 5 year period, the immediacy of hiring quality associates is a priority. The company needs to establish a proper advertising and recruitment plan (both internal and external), with specific time tables to act upon resumes, schedule interviews, process any necessary testing, and begin training qualified job applicants for their positions. Not only does this need done in the Short Term to ensure a smooth and continual placement process of proficient...

...OM 2 Chapter 1: Goods, Services, and Operations Management Problems, Activities, and Discussions 1) Explain how operations management activities affect the customer experiences described in the anecdote at the beginning of this chapter. What “moments of truth” would a customer at Disney World encounter? Think about the total experience including lodging, food service, shopping, and transportation, as well as theme park attractions and operations. The anecdote of a Disney experience focuses on the role of goods, services, and processes in creating customer satisfaction. Students will have many great examples of their Disney or theme park experiences. Moments of truth might include (a) booking a Disney vacation and the associated service encounters with a call center and/or travel agency (b) parking at the Disney site and taking the shuttle, (c) asking Disney employees for directions, (d) waiting for a ride or attraction, (e) where to throw away trash (trash cans located at key points and about every 25 to 50 feet, (f) watching a Disney parade, and so on. Whatever the student describes make sure you lead them into a discussion of key lessons that focus on the role of OM such as (1) process design and customer flows, (2) service encounter design and Disney employee training, (3) integrating goods and services into a CBP, (4) the importance of service management skills, (5) how services differ from goods, (6) biztainment, and (7) a continuous improvement...

...Forecasting or estimating the demand for finished goods or services is the starting point for all operating activities. It is the trigger that sets the supply chain in motion including the preparation of: * Capital budgets for plant and equipment and shorter term operating budget * Production plans * Short-term operating cash requirements * Personnel needs either full time, part time or contract basis * Capacity levels of equipment, machines, and buildings * Purchase requirements of raw materials, components and services * Plans for subcontractor requirement s * Transportation requirements for raw materials, finished goods and/or personnel Forecasting product, customer demand or other activity is one of the most inexact functions in management. An individual has to understand and evaluate the external environment where there is considerable uncertainty including the market, clients, and changing technology. Poor forecasting of client needs by the marketing department often is the reason for slack production planning and as a result contributes to friction between marketing and production personnel. \ A medium – range forecast is one that covers about three months up to one year. In this case it would include forecasting items such as: Sales plans, production plans and operating cash budgets. Forecasting technique used in this case study is time series.
