Course ObjectivesSlide3
Introduction
Henry Gotham is a supervisor at one of Kirk & Patrick Car manufacturing plants.
Like any other supervisor in the low level management, he is responsible for assigning of jobs and tasks to various workers at the plant to meet the daily, weekly as well as monthly production levels and schedules.Slide4
Introduction
He also guides and instructs the workers for day to day activities and is responsible for the quality as well as quantity of production.
Henry ensures that the resources are put to the optimum use and the quality of the products is maintained.
He is also responsible for reporting on the daily status to the higher management of the production schedules, produced quantity of goods etc.Slide5
Introduction
Recently, when the budget was announced by the government, they decreased the price of gasoline and diesel by a significant amount
.
Due to this, there was a sudden surge in the demand for cars because almost everyone wanted to buy a car as fuel prices were more affordable now.Slide6
Introduction
The management passed on instructions to its manufacturing plant that they wanted at least an increase of 15% in the daily production level at the plant.
The management hopes that this increased production levels would help meet the current market demand and the company can make huge profits from this situation if they succeed in meeting this surge in demand.Slide7
Introduction
Henry’s boss, Gerard Butler calls him for a meeting to discuss the situation.
He informs Henry that the production levels have to be increased.
However
, Henry informs Gerard that there are not enough inventories of raw materials to meet the increase in production quantity.Slide8
Introduction
Gerard passes on the information to the higher management who realize that this is a grave situation and that they just do not have enough raw materials to increase their daily productivity limits.
Gerard suggests that could contact the suppliers and try to procure the raw materials.Slide9
Introduction
However, when the suppliers are contacted, they inform Gerard that they would not be able to supply the required raw materials before another three months due to the huge demand from all sides.
Gerard discusses the situation with the higher management.Slide10
Introduction
Gerard as well as the management knows that they have failed to take advantage of the increased market demand and have failed to make huge profits out of the situation.
You have seen how Kirk & Patrick Car Manufacturers failed to meet the current market demand as they were not able to increase the capacity of their manufacturing plants.Slide11
Introduction
Hence, you can understand that it is extremely crucial that the capacity of the plant should be planned properly keeping in mind such situations where the plant may be required to over-produce as well as under-produce than its normal productivity levels.Slide12
Introduction
Therefore, ‘Capacity Planning’ can be the competitive advantage that can help an organization to succeed and help
fulfil
the objectives and strategies of the organization
.
Let us now learn about
‘Capacity Planning’
in
detail.Slide13
Definition - Capacity
In Operations
For an Organization
In General Terms
‘Capacity’ is the ability of a given system to produce output within the specific time period.
‘Management Capacity’ is referred as the amount of input resources available to produce relative output over period of time.
‘Capacity’ is referred to as maximum production capacity, which can be attained within a normal working schedule.Slide14
What is meant by ‘Capacity Planning’?
‘Capacity Planning’ is essential to be determine the optimum utilization of resources and plays an important role in decision-making process such as for, extension of existing operations, modification to existing product lines, starting new products, etc.Slide15
What is Strategic Capacity Planning?
‘Strategic Capacity Planning’ is crucial as it helps the organization in meeting the future requirements of the organization.
Planning ensures that operating costs are maintained at a minimum possible level without affecting the quality.
It ensures that the organization remain competitive and can achieve its long-term growth plan.Slide16
Factors Affecting Capacity Planning
There are several factors that affect the efficiency and effectiveness of capacity planning such as follows:
Production Technology Product Line or Matrix
External Structure (such as policies, safety regulations etc.)
Operational Structure (such as scheduling, quality assurance etc.)
Human Capital (such as job design, compensation etc.)
Production Facility (such as layout, design, and location etc.)Slide17
Types of Capacity Planning
The three types of capacity planning based on goal are:
Lag Strategy Planning
Lead Capacity Planning
Match Strategy Planning

The following are the main objectives of operations scheduling:
Proper utilization of work centers
Reducing time of job on machines
Due importance to delivery date and to avoid delays in completion
Objectives of Operations Scheduling

Principles of Operations Scheduling
‘Operations Scheduling’ is arrived at based on the following principles:
Ensure continuous job schedule
End to end completion of job
Ensure feedback so as to make adjustmentsSlide20
What is Aggregate Planning?
‘Aggregate Planning’ is the process of working out production requirements for a medium range by working backwards from the final sales unit to raw materials required.
‘Aggregate Planning’ is an operational activity critical to the organization as aims at balancing the long-term strategic planning with short term production success.Slide21
Overview of Production Planning and Control
It is essential to integrate the production planning and control system for efficient, effective and economical operation in a manufacturing unit of an organization. Slide22
Factors affecting Production Control
‘Production Control’ cannot be the same across all of the organization.
‘
Production Control’ is dependent upon the following factors:
Nature of
Production
(job oriented, service oriented, etc.)
Nature of Operation
Size of OperationSlide23
‘Independent Demand Inventory Model’ talks about raw material demand which is dependent upon prevailing market conditions and is not correlated to any raw material currently used by the organization.
Finished
goods are an appropriate example for independent demand inventory model.

Material Requirement Planning
One of the crucial components of a production plan is material and manufacturing planning system.
‘
Material Requirement Planning’ plays a pivotal role in assembly-line production. Slide25
Waiting Line (Queue) Management
‘Queue Management’ deals with cases where the customer arrival is random; therefore, service rendered to them is also random.
A
service organization can reduce cost and thus improve profitability by efficient queue management.Slide26

Service Configuration
Another aspect of waiting line management is the service configuration.
There
are four types of service configuration, and they are as follows:
Single Channel, Single Phase
Single
Channel, Multi
Phase

Multi Channel, Multi PhaseSlide27
Let us now look at a real life example to understand
the characteristics of a waiting line in different situations.
Real Life ExampleSlide28
Situation #1:
Doctor’s Office
Situation #1: Doctor’s Office
The following are the characteristics of the waiting line (queue) in a Doctor’s Office
:
Arrivals
:
The ‘Arrivals’ here are the individual patients who come to visit the doctor for treatment.
Arrival
Process:
The patient’s arrival is in single. Pattern of Arrivals:
The patient’s arrival is scheduled due to prior appointment with the doctor’s office.Behavior of the Arrivals:
The Arrivals in the doctor’s office join the queue, and wait until they are served.Channel: This is a single channel system where the individual doctor is the server who will cater to the needs of the arrivals (patients).
Phase: This is a single step service process where a single step is involved in getting service.
Queue Discipline: The patients are served in the order of their appointment time as well as their presence at the time of appointment at the doctor’s office.
Service Configuration: Single Channel, Single PhaseSlide29
