On completion of the project students should: • understand how a service/product is generated and delivered to the customer; and • have explored in depth the operations management activities in the organization. • In order to achieve these goals, each group is expected to select a service/manufacturing organization and complete the following activities: • – Document current operations. Using flowcharts, job analyses, job descriptions, verbal explanations, or similar methods, explain the operations activities and technology for the firm. Specifically, the various inputs, transformation processes, and several outputs must be identified. – Detail OM activities. Carefully and in depth, describe how the following activities are performed in the firm: –manpower planning, acquisition, and control –scheduling –managing for quality –material control (inventory, supplies, and so on) –facility location and layout planning • Identify a problem. For each of the activities discussed above, identify at least one operating problem in the firm. Document this problem. Describe the problem as is currently understood; attach any company literature or documentation of the problem. • • Propose a solution. Suggest one or more tentative solutions to the problem. Provide detailed explanation so that a reader will gain a basic understanding of what is proposed. • Prepare a written report. Professional standards should be used in preparing and formatting the report-see "Guidelines for Report Preparation" that follow. • • As a group, the students should identify the organization, seek permission to do the project from the firm, and submit to the Instructor a one-page summary about the firm chosen and the proposed work that is to be carried out.
