3. List out the various automated systems for transfer of materials in the
production plant. What do you understand by Line Balancing? Explain with
an example.
The purpose of taking place between work centers and minimum inventory gets
created. We use the principles of JIT and lean Manufacturing to achieve
these. Linear programming, Dynamic programming and other mathematical
models are used to study these problems.
Efficient order picking is necessary for being competitive. In the supply chain
Storage, retrievaland delivery do not add value to the product, but are
necessary.
4. Explain the different types of Quality Control Tools with examples? How
do Crosby’s absolutes of quality differ from Deming’s principles?
5. Define project cycle, project management, and scope of project. List the
various project management knowledge areas? What are the reasons for
failure of a project?
Answer: The word project comes from the Latin word projectum which means
"something that comes before anything else happens". A project is “a unique
endeavour to produce a set of deliverables within clearly specified time, cost and
quality constraints”.
Project Cycle:- The term project lifecycle models how a project is planned,
controlled, and monitored from its inception to its completion. The sequence of
phases through which the project will evolve is a project life cycle. A project life
cycle is basically defined by it’s phases, according to which a project swims
through & finally reaches to handover stage.
6. Explain the various phases in project management life cycle. Explain the
necessity and objectives of SCM.
Answer:-
Planning involves setting out the roadmap for the project by creating
the following plans: project plan, resource plan, financial plan, quality
plan, acceptance plan and communications plan.
Project Initiation
Project Initiation is the first phase in the Project Life Cycle and
essentially involves starting up the project. You initiate a project by
defining its purpose and scope, the justification for initiating it and the
solution to be implemented. You will also need to recruit a suitably
skilled project team, set up a Project Office and perform an end of
Phase Review. The Project Initiation phase involves the following six
key steps:
Project Planning
After defining the project and appointing the project team, you're
ready to enter the detailed Project Planning phase. This involves
creating a suite of planning documents to help guide the team
throughout the project delivery. The Planning Phase involves
completing the following 10 key steps:
Project Execution
This is the phase in which the deliverables are physically built and
presented to the customer for acceptance.
Once all the deliverables have been produced and the customer has
accepted the final solution, the project is ready for closure.
Project Closure
Reduction of inventory
Enactment in functional effectiveness of existing systems like ERP,
Accounting. Software and Documentation like financial reports statements
ISO 9000 Documents etc.
Enhancement
of flexibility in the organization to help in easy implementation
o f s c h e m e s involving modernization, expansion and divestment, merges and
acquisitions.
