Can you assit me with this problem 3 by showing me the process step by step. I prefer it not be in the form of an excel sheet because it is hard to follow along. Thank you kindl Munson Manufacturing, in Gainesville, Florida, wants to arrange its four work centers to minimize interdepartmental parts handling costs. The flows and existing facility layout are shown below:**Figure 1. Parts Moved Between Work Centers**| | A | B | C | D ||---|-----|-----|-----|-----|| A | - | 450 | 550 | 50 || B | 325 | - | 200 | 0 || C | 0 | 0 | - | 700 || D | 0 | 0 | 0 | - |**Figure 2. Existing Layout**\[ \text{A} \quad \text{B} \quad \text{C} \quad \text{D} \]\[ \text{— 30’— | — 30’— | — 30’— | — 30’— |} \]a) For the existing layout, the cumulative "load × distance" or "movement cost" = \_\_\_ feet (enter your response as a whole number).Based on the flows shown in the matrix, one should expect that the centers A and \(\blacksquare\) will be next to each other as they have the highest number of moves between each other.Based on the flows shown in the matrix, one should expect that centers C and \(\blacksquare\) will be next to each other as they have the second highest number of moves between each other.b) The aim is to improve the layout so that the total "movement cost" can be reduced. Functional locations for A and D have been fixed. In the improved layout, the work center that should be located between them is:\[ \text{A} \quad \blacksquare \quad \text{D} \]\[ \text{—30’— | —30’— |} \]The cumulative distance based on the overall movement of parts between work centers for this layout = \_\_\_ feet (enter your response as a whole number).

Comulative load distance value = ∑Distance between stations× load of parts moved between each other

Munson Manufacturing, in Gainesville, Florida, wants to arrange its four work centers so as to minimize interdepartmental parts handling costs. The flows and existing facility layout are shown in the figures below. Figure 1. Parts Moved Between Work Centers B 450 D 550 200 50 B 325 700 - D - Figure 2. Existing Layout A В D a) For the existing layout, the cumulative "load x distance" or "movement cost" = feet (enter your response as a whole number). Based on the flows shown in the matrix, one should expect that the centers A and V will be next to each other as they have the highest number of moves between each other. Based on the flows shown in the matrix, one should expect that centers C and V will be next to each other as they have the second highest number of moves between each other. b) The aim is to improve the layout so that the total "movement cost" can be reduced. Functional locations for A and D have been fixed. In the improved layout, the work center that should be located between them is: A D 30 30' 30' The cumulative distance based on the overall movement of parts between work centers for this layout = feet (enter your response as a whole number).

In this step of new product development, a product that passes test-marketing is ready for market introduction, called rollout, which requires a lot of logistical coordination. Various divisions of the company must be encouraged to give the new item the attention it deserves. Packaging and labeling in a different language may be required. Sales training sessions must be scheduled, spare parts inventoried, service personnel trained, advertising and promotion campaigns readied, and wholesalers and retailers informed about the new item. If the new product is to be sold internationally, it may have to be altered to meet the requirements of the target countries. For instance, electrical products may have to run on different electrical currents. Test market the new product Introduce the product evaluation of alternatives screen ideas/concepts
