Course Outcomes
At the end of this lecture, the students will be
able to:
i. Define industrial engineering (IE)
ii. List IE objectives
iii. List IE techniques
 Industrial engineering
(IE): introduction

Industrial engineering (IE) is concerned with the design,

improvement and installation of integrated system of men,
material and machines for the benefits of mankind using
specialised knowledge and skill in the mathematic, physic
and social sciences together with the priciples and methods of
engineering analysis and design to specify, predict, and
evaluate the results to be obtained from such system
Industrial engineering (IE): introduction
Industrial engineering (IE) emerged as a
profession as a result of the industrial revolution
and the accompanying need for technically
trained people who could plan, organize, and
direct the operations of large complex system.
The need to increase efficiency and effectiveness
of operations was also the stimulus for the
emergence of inductrial engineering.
IE Objectives.
Improving operating methods and controlling
costs.
Increasing productivity. Productivity is the
arithmetical ratio between the amount produced
and the amount of any resource used in the
course of production. The resources include land,
materials, plant, equipments, machines, tools
and workers (man powers).
Reducing these costs through cost reduction
programs.
IE Techniques.
1. Method study: to establish standard method of
performing a job after thorough analysis of the job and to
establish the facilities layout to obtain a uniform flow of
material without back tracking.
2. Work measurement: the application of techniques
designed to established time for a qualified worker to
carryout a specified job at a defined level of performance
3. Principle of motion economy: these rules and principles
can be applied to improve the efficiency and reduce
fatigue in performing manual work.
4. Job analysis and incentives financial/non-financial: these
help to evolve a rational compensation for the efforts of
the workers.
5. Value analysis: it ensures that no unnecessary costs are
built into the product and it tries to provide the required
functions at the minimum cost. Hence, helps to enhance
the worth of the product.
IE Techniques.
6. Production planning and control: it includes the planning
for the resources (men, machines and materials), proper
scheduling, and controlling production activities to
ensure the right quantity and quality of the product at
predetermined time and pre-established cost.
7. Inventory control: used to determine the economic lot size
and the reorder levels for the items so that it is available
to the production centre at the right time, in proper
quantity to avoid stock out situation and with minimum
capital locked up.
8. Job evaluation. A technique used to determine the
relative worth of jobs of the organization to aid in
matching jobs and personnel and to evolve sound wage
policy.
IE Techniques.
9. Facilities planning and materials handling: used to
systematically plan the materials movement through the
plant eliminating back tracking and unnecessary
movements.
10. Human Factors: concerned with relationship between
man and his working environment to minimize physical
and mental stress.
11. System analysis: system analysis is a study of various
subsystems and elements that make a system, their
interdependencies in order to design, improve or modify
them to obtain greater efficiency and effectiveness.
12. Operations research: operations research techniques are
techniques used to obtain optimal solution to the
problems based on a set objectives and constraints
imposed on the problem. The techniques include
simulation, linear programming, network analysis,
queuing models etc.
Conclusion
Course Outcomes (revisited)
Atthe end of this lecture, the students
will be able to:
i. Define industrial engineering (IE)
ii. List IE objectives
iii. List IE techniques
