- Amazon Sets a Demanding Pace on the Job In a visit to an Amazon distribution center, a group of business students and their professors met with the general manager.3 After taking them on an extensive tour of the five-acre facility, the general manager commented on the slowness of the visitors' walking pace. He described the Amazon Pace, a fast, aggressive walk, and confirmed that the average employee walks eight or nine miles during a shift. These employees are called "pickers," and their task is to fill an order and deliver it to the processing and packing center as quickly as possible. The design of the center is a trade secret that results in a random distribution of products. Therefore, the picker has to cover a number of directions and distances while filling an order. Those who cannot keep up the pace are usually let go, just as would be those who steal. Critical Thinking • Does the requirement to walk an average of eight or nine miles at a fast pace every day strike you as a…1. A company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used five workers, who produced an average of 100 carts per hour. Workers receive $20 per hour, and machine cost was $50 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by $10 per hour while output increased by four carts per hour. a. Compute labor productivity under each system. Use carts per worker per hour as the measure of labor productivity. b. Compute the multifactor productivity under each system. Use carts per dollar cost (labor plus equipment) as the measure. Comment on the changes in productivity according to the two measures, and on which one you believe is the more pertinent for this situation. C.3 35 The customers go to the company are at the rate of one arrival every 12 minutes. The time between arrivals follows an exponential distribution.

(First System) A crew of mechanics at the NCDOT repair NCDOT vehicles that break down at an average rate of λ = 4 vehicles per day. The crew can service an average of µ = 5 vehicles per day. The crew cost is $400 per day. A bureaucrat in Raleigh has determined the cost associated with lost productivity due to breakdowns is $300/day. (This includes the entire time the vehicle is unavailable—from the time it breaks down until the time it is back on the road.) 2. (Second System) This same bureaucrat thinks it would be a good idea to have two repair crews instead of one. Vehicles still break down at the same rate of 4/day. Each crew can still service 5 /day. Assume that each crew handles half of the breakdowns. Each crew costs $400/day. The cost associated with the lost productivity of an idle vehicle is still $300/day. Which system do you recommend and why?
