. The School of Dentistry at Penn provides general dental care to residents of Philadelphiaon a walk-in basis. Upon arrival, customers first provide health-relevant informationsuch as personal health records and insurance provider to a receptionist who entersthe information into the computer system for the dentist to see. A dental assistant thentakes an X-ray of the patient. A dentist then performs the checkup and discusses anyissues with the patient. Depending on the day, patients might have to wait at any of theseresources. This concludes the process. Draw a process flow diagram of this process.
The Holt Million Corporation’s plant manufactures two different products: X and Y. The plant has three different machines: A, B, and C. Each performs different tasks and can work on only one unit of material at a time. Details for each product are shown in the table below: Product X Y Demand Per Week 200 units 100 units Selling Price $150 $160 Machine Operation Required A, B, C B, B, C Operation Times in Minutes 20, 15, 15 15, 15, 15 Raw Materials Needed RM-1, RM-2 RM-2, RM-3 Raw Materials Costs RM-1 = $40/unit, RM-2 or RM-3 = $20/unit Each product uses raw materials with costs as shown in the above table where the processing times and the machine required for each operation are also shown. Each machine is available 4,800 minutes per week. There are no system foul-ups. Demand is deterministic (i. e., no uncertainty). Operating expenses, including labor (but excluding raw materials) total $12,000 per week. Assuming…

Management of Mittel Company would like to reduce the amount of time between when a customer places an order and when the order is shipped. For the first quarter of operations during the current year the following data were reported: Inspection time 0.7 days Wait time (from order to start of production) 16.9 days Process time 2.7 days Move time 1.0 days Queue time 4.3 days 1. Compute the delivery cycle time. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 1 decimal place.) 2. If by using Lean Production all queue time during production is eliminated, what will be the new MCE? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your percentage answer to 1 decimal place.)
Mr. K’s is a very popular hair salon. It offers high quality hairstyling andphysical relaxation services at a reasonable price, so it always has unlimiteddemand. The service process includes five activities that are conducted inthe sequence described below ( the time required for each activity is shownin parenthesis):Activity 1: Welcome a guest and offer homemade herb tea (10 minutes)Activity 2: Wash and condition har (10 minutes)Activity 3: Neck, shoulder, and back stress release massage (10 minutes)Activity 4: Design and hair style and do the hair (25 minutes)Activity 5: Ring up the guest bill (5 minutes)Each activity has one employee dedicated to it. For the following questions,assume unlimited demand. Also assume that the employee at activity 1 onlyadmits new guests at the rate of the bottleneck.(a) Which resource is the bottleneck?(b) What is the capacity of the process?(c) What is the flow rate?(d) What is the utilization of the employee at activity 3(e) What is the cycle time?
Cubway, the sandwich shop, is run by Jim, Tim and Kim. When a customer arrives, Jim spends 5 minutes taking order from the customer. After this, Tim prepares bread and Kim prepares filling for the order. These activities are performed in parallel, and take 6 and 12 minutes respectively. Jim then assembles the bread and filling, which takes 4 minutes of his time. Finally, Tim spends 1 minutes in delivering the order and taking payment. What is maximum number of sandwiches Cubway can make per hour? (In other words, what is the capacity of the process in sandwiches per hour?)
We are analyzing the performance of four different machines, all subjected to the same workload. We have calculated the average Cycle Time (CT) and Work in Progress (WIP) for these machines. Which machine has the smallest effective variability? Machine 1: CT= 5 hours , WIP= 15 units Machine 2: CT= 10 hours , WIP= 30 units Machine 3: CT= 20 hours , WIP= 60 units Machine 4: CT= 40 hours , WIP= 120 units

Based on below What is the capacity (patients per hour) at the resource “Dentist”? It takes about 5 minutes for a customer to fill out the paperwork. Entry of information on the paperwork into the system and verification with past records takes another 5 minutes for a receptionist. There are two receptionists. It takes 15 minutes, on average, for the dental assistant to take an X-ray. There are three dental assistants on shift at any moment. There are 10 dentists working at the clinic. Each checkup takes 30 minutes, on average. The following table summarizes the process data collected above.
