To an operations manager the "critical The person who has the greatest impact on design,
customer" is: sales and growth opportunities for the product.
Which functional activities are the C. Logistics, supply, and customer management
most related to operations
management attempts to manage the

firm?
,Jones Manufacturing sells a part to Tier 2
Lear Corporation. Lear puts this part
into a radio which Lear then sells to
Ford. From Ford's point of view, Jones
Manufacturing is a __________ supplier.
process system of structured activities that use resources to
transform inputs such as energy, materials, and
information into valuable outputs
process thinking way of viewing activities in an organization as a
collection of processes as opposed to departments
or functional areas
true process thinking causes managers to address critical
process elements, including activities, inputs, outputs,
flows, structure, resources, and metrics
process thinking can be applied to any operations
that involve transformations of materials, information,
currencies, or even people
utilization as the percentage of process capacity that is actually
used
yield rate percentage of good units produced as a percentage
of total units begun
maximum capacity highest output rate that an activity or a process can
achieve under ideal conditions in the short term
effective capacity that the process can sustain
Capacity refers to the limit on the amount of output that a
process can produce given an amount of inputs and
resources made available to the process
capacity is also used to denote size or storage limits
the capacity of a process is determined by the limits
of its resources
, judment techniques are useful when there is a lack of quantitative historical
information, for example, when a new product is
about to be launched.
cycle time and throughput are inverse of each other
when you buy a machine it exactly doubles capacity of operation
true cycle time units are always time: hours, minutes
operations are the steps in a process
process testing activity the whole business, many operations
capacity planning amount of output or work that a process can
produce in a given amount of time
represents our ability to meet demand
capacity 2 how much volume you can handle
