Easy Moving, a moving company, is seeking outside advice from a consultant (you) about the appropriate selection measures to use to analyze job candidates. The position that the company most often hires for is a Driver/Mover. Individuals in this job must be able to drive long hours, and lift and carry heavy objects for long periods of time. When people are moving from one home to another they contact Easy Moving to take care of relocating all of their belongings. The people responsible for the move are the Drivers/Movers.
Because driving a truck is an essential function of the job, individuals must not only be physically capable of driving, but also must have an impeccable driving record. Driving a truck can be considered a safety hazard if the individuals were not in the right frame of mind to be a good driver. Easy Moving should keep these things in mind when analyzing applicants. Additionally, individuals applying for a Driver/Mover position with Easy Moving must have the physical…

Arnie Armstrong has been with Pierce Auto Parts Manufacturing Company for 23 years. Recently, he was appointed Director of Manufacturing Computer Services. In just six weeks in this new position, [he] has moved to reduce the amount of information provided to manufacturing department managers by 60 percent. He argues that excess data is distracting, unused, and expensive to provide.
Willy McClean has been department manager for 12 years. During a coffee break with some of his department production supervisors, Willy is quite vocal about the change. “Who’s this guy Armstrong to tell us what data we need? He needs to be out here for a few weeks to find out what it’s like. Keep it quiet, but I’ve got a contact in Computer Services who’ll get me all the data analyses I want for just a $20 bill each month. It’s a good deal, and Armstrong will never know. How does he expect us to make good decisions about…

- (see attached images, kindly answer it based on your knowledge, thank you!)arrow_forwardThe Fly-Right Airplane Company builds small jet airplanes to sell to corporations for use by their executives. To meet the needs of these executives, the company's customers sometimes order a custom design of the airplanes being purchased. When this occurs, a substantial start-up cost is incurred to initiate the production of these airplanes. Fly-Right has recently received purchase requests from three customers with short deadlines. However, because the company's production facilities already are almost completely tied up filling previous orders, it will not be able to accept all three orders. Therefore, a decision now needs to be made on the number of airplanes the company will agree to produce (if any) for each of the three customers. The relevant data are given in the next table. The first row gives the start-up cost required to initiate the production of the airplanes for each customer. Once production is under way. the marginal net revenue (which is the purchase price minus the…arrow_forwardA call center employs 1,425 agents. Every month 57 employees leave the company and 57 new employees are hired. a. How long on average does an agent work for this call center (in months) Suppose the cost of hiring and training a new agent is $1,140. The manager of this call center believes that increasing agents’ salaries would keep them working longer at the company. The manager wants to increase the average time that an agent works for the call center to 36 months, or three years. b-1. Given the current average working time for agents at this call center, determine the current annual cost for hiring and training. b-2. Assuming the average time that an agent works for the call center is increased to 36 months, determine the new annual cost for hiring and training. b-3. If the time an agent works for the call center is increased to 36 months on average, how much could the company save on hiring and training costs over a year?arrow_forward

Time to complete each task, starting with task 1, is 30, 25, 35, 40, 15, and 30 - all in seconds. There are 4 workers. Worker 1 completes Task 1; Worker 2 completes Task 2; Worker 3 completes Tasks 3 and 4; and Worker 4 completes Task 5 and 6.arrow_forwardEngineering managementarrow_forwardA consulting company must hire 15 new associates per year to replace those who haveleft the company for other positions or have retired.

- Mr. Elf owns a show store. Currently, he has 10 pairs of shoes that require resoling and polishing. He has a machine that can resole one pair of shoes at a time, and the time required for the operation varies with the type and condition of the shoe and the type of sole that is used. Shoes are polished on a machine dedicated to this purpose as well, and polishing is always done after resoling. His assistant generally does the polishing while Mr. Elf does the resoling. The resoling and polishing times (in minutes) are: Shoes 1 Resoling Time 14 Polishing Time 3 2 28 1 3 12 2 4 6 5 5 10 10 6 14 6 7 4 12 8 25 8 9 10 15 10 5 5 Determine the sequence in which these shoes should be repaired to minimize the total makespan for these 10 jobs, and answer the following questions.

It has just opened a new factory where the C1 car and the T1 truck can both be manufactured. To make either vehicle, processing in the assembly shop and in the paint shop are required. It takes 1/40 of a day and 1/60 of a day to paint a truck of type T1 and a car of type C1 in the paint shop, respectively. It takes 1/50 of a day to assemble either type of vehicle in the assembly shop. A T1 truck and a C1 car yield profits of $300 and $220, respectively, per vehicle sold. a) Define the objective function and constraint equations. b) Graph the feasible region. c) What is a maximum-profit daily production plan at the new factory? d) How much profit will such a plan yield, assuming whatever is produced is sold?arrow_forward
- An order for 200 units of a product is processed on work centers A and B. The set up time on A is 45 minutes and the run time is 5 minutes per piece. The set up time on B is 40 minutes and the run time is 8 minutes per piece. The wait time between the two operations is 2 hours. The move time between A and B is 15 minutes. Wait time after operation B is 1 hour and the move time into stores is 50 minutes. There is no queue at either work station. Calculate the total manufacturing lead time for the order.arrow_forwardDo not use chatgpt.arrow_forwardA roller coaster is being designed for a new theme park. Two "trains" are on the track at any given time. One train is being unloaded/reloaded while the other is moving along the track. The track itself takes 10 minutes to complete. The train being loaded should depart before the arriving train is no closer than one minute away. Each car of a train accommodates four people. Loading a car is estimated to take 6 seconds per passenger. Unloading is estimated to take 6 seconds per passenger. Suppose that (unlike actual roller coasters), only one car can be loaded or unloaded at a time. Unloading can NOT occur at the same time as loading. In order to maximize the number of potential passengers, how many cars should the train be made up of? Round your answer to the nearest whole car.arrow_forward
