Recently, some operations management experts have begun insisting that simply maximizing process velocity, which actually means minimizing the time it takes to process something through the system, is the single most important measure for improving a process. Can you think of a situation in which this might not be true?

3- The first part of description is introduction. The question is related to the second paragraph. Answer the question regarding the flow process chart. Description: Assume that a factory contains a forge shop, machine shop, and finishing department. These departments produce most majority of the parts. Due to this issue, the factory is laid out as three large square rooms. The rectangle runs from north to south, with the forge shop on the south end and the finishing department on the north end. Large doors are located on the south wall for work entering the factory and on the north wall for finished products exiting the factory. In this case, the raw material is a steel billet that is purchased from a steel wholesale supplier. The billets arrive in pallet loads of 50 billets at the shipping and receiving department, which is a building that is located 20 ft from the south wall door of the factory. The shipping and receiving department inspects the parts and sends them by forklift…
PS.55 Four Corners is an IBC company that sells delicious Navajo tacos in the Crossroads Food Court. Part of their success can be attributed to the freshly fried Indian bread that is used not only for the tacos, but also for dessert items. As demand grows the fry-bread process is becoming a bottleneck. Operations management for the company is looking at two different process options to replace the highly manual process currently being used. Option 1 (medium automation) would cost $190 to implement whereas Option 2 (high automation) would cost $450. With Option 1 the variable cost per fry bread produced would be $0.23. The variable cost for Option 2 would be $0.11 per fry bread. At what volume (demand) of fry breads is the cost for the two options the same? (Display your answer to two decimal places.) What is the total cost for either option at this break-even volume (answered in the last question)? (Display your answer to two decimal places.)
