DataSpan, Incorporated, automated its plant at the start of the
current year and installed a flexible manufacturing system. The
company is also evaluating its suppliers and moving toward Lean
Production. Many adjustment problems have been encountered,
including problems relating to performance measurement. After much
study, the company has decided to use the performance measures
below, and it has gathered data relating to these measures for the
first four months of operations.
Management has asked for your help in computing throughput time,
delivery cycle time, and MCE. The following average times have been
logged over the last four months:
Required:
1-a. Compute the throughput time for each month.
1-b. Compute the delivery cycle time for each month.
1-c. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for each
month.
2. Evaluate the company’s performance over the last four
months.
3-a. Refer to the move time, process time, and so forth, given
for month 4. Assume that in month 5 the move time, process time,
and so forth, are the same as in month 4, except that through the
use of Lean Production the company is able to completely eliminate
the queue time during production. Compute the new throughput
time and MCE.
3-b. Refer to the move time, process time, and so forth, given
for month 4. Assume in month 6 that the move time, process time,
and so forth, are again the same as in month 4, except that the
company is able to completely eliminate both the queue time during
production and the inspection time. Compute the new throughput time
and MCE.
