2. Production Management
Is it Operations Management ?
How it is defined
Production Vs Service function
Production function- determinants
Production Decisions : Strategic, Operating , Control
Production & productivity
How Production Management is related to Industrial Engineering
Why Production Management is required
( timely production & Lead time fulfulment )

3. Areas of Productivity Improving volume of production
Apply Control Charts – reduce rework, rejections , waste or scrap
Maintain LT
Control Idle time , WIP– update with norms – time study
Use MIS & Quality systems
Good House keeping ., Material Handling
Check absenteeism. Theft., pilferage
Ensure Safety – Safe-t-Score test

4. Efficient Training & Team Building
( Identify for Re-Training , Training costs)
Work out correct Inventory – EOQ
Use Cause & effect Diagram
Use Deming Cycle
Use Six Sigma concept
Use Lean Management concept
Use Acceptance Sampling
Use Normal Distributions
Choose the right method of sampling

5. Components of Production Management
1. Process Design
2. Product design
3.Product Life cycle
4.Plant Utilities or industrial Climatology
i. Plant Lighting ii. Plant Ventilation
iii. Plant Air-conditioning iv.Sanitation
v. Noise control and Acoustics vi.Need for Automation and types of Automation
vi. Type of Building vii. Type of Floor
viii. Type of Roof

6. 5. Plant location : Types , Selection , Tools, recent trends
6. Plant Layout : Types, Selection , Tools, Role of Computers
7.Material Handling : types , Selection, Safety , Maintainance
8.Maintainance Management : Types , selection , Audit , Link to quality production
9.Ergonomics : Need, Meaning , Approach
10.Job Design :
Job rotation, Enlargement , Enrichment , Vestibule training , Job description , Specification

7. 11. Work Study :
Method Study & Time Study – Need , Role Significance , Fixation of Wage , Incentive
Method Study :phases: S , R , E, D, Dev.,M I
How this is useful in a production set up ?
Time Study: Phases: S , R , D , Dev.., I
Tools : Clock, elements, allowances, Normal time ,Observed time , Rating of a worker,
Standard time , S M V or S A V – link to production

8. Time Study for set up 1. Motion & Time analysis 2. Ergonomics
3. Elements – Time measurement
4. Apply Allowances
5. Establish the Standard time
6. Identify the idle time
7. Determine the number of rounds of observation

9. Overview of Inventory Control
What is Inventory & Inventory Control ?
What is W I P ?
How Inventory is Created ?
What are P & Q systems ?
Saw Tooth Curve
Inventory Decisions ( Credit & Discount )

10. Supply Chain Management
Introduction
Need
Production Equation
Supply Chain for a Manfg. Unit
Supply Chain for a Service Unit

11. Overview of SCM Inventory Control Materials Management
Components of Material Management or LM
1. Purchasing & Procurement
2.Principles
3.Purchasing methods
4. Purchasing Cycle
5.Purchasing Interfaces
6. Value Analysis
7. Outsourcing ( 3 PL & 4 PL)

12. Vendor Dynamics Choosing a Supplier – determinants, Certification
Vendor Rating
Vendor Analysis
Vendor Development
Supplier types : i. Partnership
ii. Adversary
Evaluation of Logistics: Incoming & Outgoing
shipment

13. Innovations in Logistics
1. Warehousing : types – i. Bonded
ii. UnBonded
2.Warehousing design , Construction
3. Developments in Warehousing
i. Barcoding ii. Electronic data interchange
iii. Distribution requirement Planning
iv. JIT or Kanban

14. Supply Chain Strategies
Strategy 1 : Multiple Suppliers
( Short term)
Strategy 2. Few Suppliers
( Long term)
Strategy 3. Vertical Integration
i. Backward Integration
ii. Forward Integration
Strategy 4. : Keiretsu Network
Strategy 5.: Virtual Company – R M G

15. Managing Supply Chain 1. Postponement or Curtailment if a part
can be available locally
2.Channel Assembly – Distributor as Manfg.
Drop Shipping and Special packaging
Blanket Order
Invoice less Purchasing
Electronic Ordering and Fund transfer
Stockless Purchasing- Direct to purchaser
without store
Standardization : Reduce no. of materials and components to aid Cost reduction

16. Benchmarking in SCM Comparison of Supply Chain Performance
For different factors like
Number of suppliers per purchasing agent
Purchasing cost & lead time
% of late deliveries
% of rejections
Number of shortages per year

17. Tools for SCM 1. Make or Buy decision 2.Supplier scheduling
3. Value Analysis
4.Supplier evaluation
5. Linear Programming
7. Assignment techniques
8. Transportation Techniques
9. Network Techniques
10. Sequencing
