Converting Inputs to Outputs
Production involves converting inputs (raw materials, parts, human
resources) into outputs (products or services)
Process Manufacturing
Chapter 11
Assembly Process
Copyright © 2011 by Nelson Education Ltd.
The basic input is broken down into one or
more outputs.
The basic inputs are combined or transformed
into the output.
10
Production Timing
Continuous Process
Chapter 11
Intermittent Process
Copyright © 2011 by Nelson Education Ltd.
A production process that uses long production
runs without equipment shutdowns.
A production process that uses short production
runs to make batches of different products.

Manufacturing to order, or for inventory
Manufacture to
order
A product is not made until a
customer has placed an order for it.
E.g. Dell Computers, Burger King
Manufacture for
inventory
A product is made in advance of a
customer ordering it. E.g. Hewlett
Packard, McDonalds

Designing the Facility
Chapter 11
Process Layout
Work flows according to the production process
Product Layout
Workstations or departments are arranged in a
line with products moving along the line
Fixed-Position Layout
The product stays in one place and workers and
machinery move to it as needed
Cellular Manufacturing
Technique uses small, self-contained production
units each performing all or most of the tasks
necessary

The Experience Curve
As Boeing originally discovered with the 707, manufacturing cost
continues to decline as you accumulate more production experience.
Slope of .2 to .3, meaning a 20% to 30%
reduction in unit manufacturing
costs for each doubling
of production
