QUESTION 1 1. What is the classic process followed in manufacturing airplanes? In which cases this process can be different? Five typical manufacturing processes (project, job shop, batch, line flow and continuous flow) have presented during the lean management course. An Airplane is the product of highly-efficient cooperation across the company’s global supply and manufacturing chains, as well as its decades of innovation for the air transport sector. This sections details how an airplane modern
Womack, J P and Jones, D T summarised Lean Production as ‘doing more and more with less and less’. Rineheart, J., Huxley, C., Robertson, D (1997) stated that lean manufacturing will be the standard means of manufacturing in the 21st century, Dankbaar (1997) added that there is no other alternative to lean manufacturing. The general consensus amongst researchers is, that if properly implemented lean manufacturing would be the means to achieving world class manufacturing status (Papadopoulu & Ozbayrak 2005)

Ethical Discussion The ethical framework I would like to analyze this case study with is Deontology (or also known as Kantianism). In this framework, there is a strict adherence to the categorical imperative, which consists of two parts: The Universality Principle and The Reciprocity Principle. In the former principle, we must consider if a maxim is applied universally then would this maxim still be ethical. The latter principle is basically a variant of the Golden Rule: Do to others what you wish
1. INTRODUCTION: Managers throughout the ages worried and are still worrying about nature of errors that perhaps generate in any day organizational work routine. It could be in Product manufacturing, Manufacturing process or even in Services Offerings. The factual reason for this is that any workplace mistake can create loss of money and goodwill for the business and through management action leading to loss of job for the staff involved in the said known or unknown lapse. In today's critical scenario
material requirements planning (MRP) systems. JIT pervades all aspects of the production and inventory flow process, covering not only the work-in-process (WIP) inventories (parts), but also, in the forward direction, the flow of finished goods from manufacturing to distribution centres, and, in the backward direction, the flow from
(Yiliu Tu, 1997) and suggested adaptive production planning and virtual company network. Storch et al (1999) used the fundamentals of lean thinking (Womack et al, 1996) and suggested product work breakdown structure and group technology to reduce waste in a shipbuilding environment. They suggested use of smaller standardized block and proposed a metrics to monitor the lean flow in shipbuilding. However literature in this area has not recognized the importance of planning and scheduling at final assembly
Determinants of Lean Six Sigma Success in Health care Objective: Identify central issues that prevent Lean Six Sigma (LSS) projects from achieving intended targets and sustaining the improved state in the health care environment. Methods: Focused interviews with seven experienced process improvement experts in the health care environment serving as key informants. Results: Key informants noted barriers that prevented LSS projects from achieving lasting success which were grouped into six themes:
This project deals with the cellular manufacturing system by using hybrid genetic algorithm. In the manufacturing industry cellular manufacturing plays an important role especially in batch production. Cellular manufacturing is established upon the philosophies of group technology in which part families are identified and similar parts are recognized and group together in order to take benefit of their similar attributes and design as well. The objective of this project is to maximize the grouping
