Heizer and Render advises that when analyzing and designing
processes to transform resources into goods, the following
questions should be asked: - Is the process designed to achieve
competitive advantage in terms of differentiation, response or low
cost? - Does the process eliminate steps that do not add value? -
Does the process maximize customer value as perceived by the
customer? - Will the process win orders? A Time-Function Map is
similar to a flow process chart, but with time added to the
horizontal axis. With time-function mapping, notes indicate the
activities and arrows indicate the flow direction, with time on the
horizontal axis. 1.1 Choose a process within your organization and
construct a Baseline Time-Function Map. (20 marks) 1.2 Analyze the
process and demonstrate how you would go about improving the
process. (20 m)
