Scheduling Production – 4 Main Tasks Routing: deciding where the work is to be done Routing: deciding where the work is to be done Scheduling: deciding when the work is to be started and completed Scheduling: deciding when the work is to be started and completed Dispatching: issuing work orders to start actual production Dispatching: issuing work orders to start actual production Expediting: seeing that the work is progressing on schedule Expediting: seeing that the work is progressing on schedule Routing: deciding where the work is to be done Routing: deciding where the work is to be done Scheduling: deciding when the work is to be started and completed Scheduling: deciding when the work is to be started and completed Dispatching: issuing work orders to start actual production Dispatching: issuing work orders to start actual production Expediting: seeing that the work is progressing on schedule Expediting: seeing that the work is progressing on schedule

Routing Production Routing depends on the type of manufacturing being used. Routing depends on the type of manufacturing being used. Continuous manufacturing routes are built into the factory layout.

Scheduling Production The line production routing sheet is used to help schedule. The line production routing sheet is used to help schedule. The goal is to use 100% of the manufacturing plant. The goal is to use 100% of the manufacturing plant. Schedules are based on: Schedules are based on: Sales forecasts by day, week, and month for each product Sales forecasts by day, week, and month for each product Inventory levels for both raw materials and finished products Inventory levels for both raw materials and finished products Manufacturing capacity to be schedules in terms of the number of products that can be produced per hour or day Manufacturing capacity to be schedules in terms of the number of products that can be produced per hour or day Schedules determine the parts or products that should be manufactured each day the plant operates Schedules determine the parts or products that should be manufactured each day the plant operates The line production routing sheet is used to help schedule.

Manufacturing Production After scheduling, the products must be produced. They run through 2 types of production: After scheduling, the products must be produced. They run through 2 types of production: Pilot production – Manufactures test the new production lines before placing the product in full production Pilot production – Manufactures test the new production lines before placing the product in full production Corrections for problems might include: product designs, tooling designs, production methods, plant layouts, and material handling system Corrections for problems might include: product designs, tooling designs, production methods, plant layouts, and material handling system Full Scale production – this is where the efficient manufacturing takes place Full Scale production – this is where the efficient manufacturing takes place After scheduling, the products must be produced.
