...undergoes physical -chemical transformations and lacks assembly operations, therefore raw materials cant easily be obtained from the final product, examples include: paper, cement and nylon. * Part production (ex: cars and ovens) comprises both manufacturing systems and assembly systems. In the first category we find job shops, manufacturing cells, flexible manufacturing systems and transfer lines, in the assembly category we have fixed position systems, assembly lines and assembly shops (both manual and/or automated operations) Another possible classification[12] is one based on Lead Time (manufacturing lead time vs delivery lead time): Engineer to Order, Purchase to Order, Make to Order, Assemble to Order and Make to Stock. According to this classification different kinds of systems will have different customer order decoupling points (CODP), meaning that Work in Progress cycle stock levels are practically nonexistent regarding operations located after the CODP (except for WIP due to queues). The concept of production systems can be expanded to the service sector world keeping in mind that services have some fundamental differences in respect to material goods: intangibility, client always present during transformation processes, no stocks for "finished goods". Services can be classified according to a service process matrix: degree of labor intensity (volume) vs degree of customization (variety). For high degree of labor intensity we have Mass Services (ex: commercial...

...Scenario One: (500 Words) You are an audit senior in an accounting firm and you asked the audit partner about the ‘audit expectation gap’. The audit partner provided his opinion on the issue as follows: There is a so called ‘audit expectation gap’, and it is associated with unreasonable expectations of users. They want all fraud found, and a guarantee that the company will continue forever! This is quite unreasonable and not what the audit is designed to do! Perhaps we could do more on these issues, but it would be more work, cost more, and I doubt whether the companies would be prepared to pay anyway. Required Discuss the views of the audit partner. Scenario Two: (500 Words) Eric, a young CPA and one of the audit team members for ABC Pty Ltd, has developed very good insights into the company’s systems in the last 12 months and was asked by his partner, John, to draft a report on the reliability of internal control at ABC for review. The report is to be used as a part of a due diligence assurance engagement for ABC’s prospectus. ABC wants to be listed on Australian Securities Exchange by coming June. In carrying out the review, Eric finds a number of matters that concern him. He notices that the controls over inventory requisitions are very poor, leading to numerous complaints from customers about delays and wrong deliveries, and cancellations. Moreover, the inventory records do not show the history or the values of the inventory, so that estimates were used to arrive...

...Radio Frequency Identification Uses in Inventory Management By: Jared Farnsworth, LAT In the fall of two thousand two I was introduced to radio frequency identification or RFID while I was doing my advanced individual training (AIT) for the military in Fort Lee, Virginia. At this time RFID was still in its infancy and not too many people were using RFID at this time. Not really too much was known about the benefits that it provided for inventory management either. The military was in the beginning stages of development and found it useful to link all of the databases at every military installation to make inventory control that much more reliable. Throughout my career in the military I used the RFID system quite a bit, mainly for inventory management. I used it for the control of medical equipment for the Army hospital that I was attached to. Everything had to be documented since all the supplies were highly vital to the proper running of the hospital. Other uses for the RFID system are for loss prevention, tracking inventory replenishment, managing work-in progress, and the removal of production waste through lean management. However certain problems do exist with the RFID system such as misuses and privacy issues. Over the next few paragraphs the benefits and problems with the RFID system will be discussed. “Theft and loss prevention and price markdown management are two of the most promising uses for radio frequency...

...Carmen Caggiano MBA 642- Dr. Lynn Fish Assignment #2- H.C. Starck, Inc. Case 09/25/2012 1. Why are the lead times so long? 2.5 points There are many reasons to explain why the lead times at H.C. Starck, Inc. were so long. A variety of explanations can be made, in which all were mentioned by various members of the H.C. Starck, Inc. team or through inferences made by management. To begin, H.C. Starck, Inc. experienced lead times that were longer than expected because there was a belief that the manufacturing time was taking far too long, although no hard data was provided to support this. Also, Lee Sallade, who was the director of Operations for H.C. Starck, Inc., believed that although focusing on lead time was important, focusing on it solely would be a significant error in all aspects. He felt that in addition to controlling lead time that overall cycle time needed to be accounted for, as well, which may have also led to the lead times lasting for such an extended period of time. Lee emphasized that cycle time and inventory were very important to the company, but both were very difficult to control since H.C. Starck, Inc. held such a significant amount of tantalum inventory. Lastly, Lee felt that managing data was crucial to success, and he was concerned that many of the operational decisions of the company were based on myths or “hear say” and that, “rigorous data collection and analysis could help to break out of this mode of operation.” Another...

...336 hours 520,000 / 212,300 = 2.45 526.45 (21.93 days) Effective Time (hours) Note: 4 batches of Maceration, filtration and boiling are used to fill up the tank before the next step (fermentation) can start. So the time taken for 1 batch has been multiplied by 4 for 4 batches. Also, we note there is some time taken to fill up the tanks. We know that each fermentation tank takes up 16 hours to fill up but we don’t have similar data about the pre filling tanks so we have ignored this from our calculation. Our calculations can be further optimized if we receive the tank fill up duration for all the processes. 1.4. What are the inventories held in this facility? The raw materials used in the process – Water, Hops, Malt, Yeast are inventory. WIP is also considered inventory which is when the beer is held in the pre filling tanks. When manufacturing is done, the finished goods are also inventory. 1.5. What does the factory do to improve its quality? Product Quality: The factory has a continuous quality monitoring and evaluation process. The beer is tasted manually by experts at every step of the process to measure the quality of the end product. We also assume that considerable...

...OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT AMERICAN CONNECTOR COMPANY INTRODUCTION About DJC DJC is easily perceived as the typical Japanese manufacturer when considering their core principles. DJC’s corporate objective was profit maximization. DJC emphasised on high quality products at low production costs and thus creating value for the company. Initially, it followed a strategy of coping American products, which were considered to be the most advanced in the world, but over a period of years realised highly efficient manufacturing is critical for gaining competitive advantage over its competitors and thus developed its RND team to produce quality products at par with American counterparts. Facing huge challenge to maintain its current market share in connector business due to increase in labour cost, raw material cost, rising yen and wide penetration of imported goods, DJC chose to build its new plant in Kawasaki Japan to achieve “the ultimate rationalization of mass production”. The plant was established in 1986 and is designed to produce 800 million connectors per year with the aim of achieving three main goals 1. 100% utilization. 2. 99% yield on raw material. 3. Six sigma policy reducing defects to 1 per million units of output delivering high customer satisfaction. The Kawasaki plant is successfully operated by Kawasaki management by carefully integrating decisions and policies meeting company’s goal and objectives.

...KaShawna Davis 4/2/15 PROC 5850 Case Study 1- H. C. Starks H.C. Starck Business Case 1. Why are the lead times so long? There are several rationalities to explicate why the lead times at H.C. Starck, Inc. are indeed long. A diverseness of accounts can be established, in which all were noted by respective members of the H.C. Starck, Inc. team or via illations established by management. To start out, H.C. Starck, Inc. underwent lead times that were longer than anticipated because there was an impression that the manufacturing time was excessively long, although there wasn’t any arduous data rendered to confirm such. As well, Lee Sallade, who was the Director of Operations for H.C. Starck, Inc., conceived that concentrating on lead times was very crucial; concentrating on it exclusively would be a substantial error in all views. Lee Sallade sensed that in addition to ascertaining lead time; the overall cycle time should be calculated for, which may have caused the lead times enduring for such an extensive period of time. Lee Sallade stressed that cycle time and inventory were hugely significant to the company, but both were enormously unmanageable to “keep in line” subsequently H.C. Starck, Inc. deemed such a substantial amount of tantalum inventory. Finally, Lee Sallade sensed that overseeing data was essential to success, and Lee Sallade was worried that many of the operational decisiveness of the company were based on myths or “hear say” and that, “rigorous data collection...

Appendix 11 Introduction About ISO 9000 ISO 9000 is a family of international standards related to quality management systems (QMS) that facilitates mutual understanding across domestic and international trade. The standards are published by the International Organization for Standardization and available in the UK through the British Standard Institute. ISO 9000:2008 sets down the principles behind the quality management and specifies the QMS terminology, thus forms the basis for the standards within the ISO 9000 family. ISO 9001:2008 specifies the requirements for a QMS an organisation has to fulfil to meet the standard. ISO 9004:2008 provides guidelines for a QMS that aim to improve the performance of the organisation and the satisfaction of both stakeholders and customers. ISO 9000 represents an international consensus on good quality management practices and can be understood as a generic framework to manage a business’ processes to deliver superior quality...
