local market research fim has just won a contract for several thousand small projects involving
data gathering and statistical analysis. In the past, the firm has assigned each project to a single member of its highly trained professional staff. This person would both gather and analyze the data Using this approach, an experienced person can complete an average of 10 such projects in an eight-hour day. The firm's management is thinking of assigning two people to each project in order to allow them to specialize and become more efficient The process would require the data gatherer to fill out a matrix on the computer, check it and transmit it to the statistical analysis program for the analyst
to complete. Data can be gathered on one project while the analysis is being completed on
another, but the analysis must be complete before the statistical analysis program can accept the
new data. After some practice, the new process can be completed with a standard time of 20
minutes…

It took him nearly 5 years to move to a 1st shift job and he has worked that shift ever since and has no desire to work a different shift. Because of his tenure and performance, Bill tends to work autonomously with little direction from his supervisor.
