Course Catalog Description
19

Design and analysis of industrial facilities including just-intime systems, queuing, material handling systems, material
flow analysis, line balancing, systematic layout planning,
design of warehouse facilities, and facilities location
 The different elements described above are all part
of Facilities Planning
 The facilities planned today must help an organization achieve
Supply Chain Excellence
 Each organization in the supply chain should plan facilities with
their partners in mind
IE 368.FACILITY DESIGN AND OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT

Facilities’ Characteristics
20
 All the facilities in the supply chain should have the
following characteristics:
 Flexibility
 Modularity
 Upgradability
 Adaptability
 Selective Operability

Why are they arranged as drawn?
Why are there so many duplicated items?
Why is the facility so large or small?
Why are there enclosed rooms and open areas?
How many people will be working in the facility?
Does this design meet requirements?

IE Approaches
28
 Industrial Engineers develop models to understand,
design and validate systems
 Procedures
 e.g., Systematic Layout Planning (SLP)
 Analytical models
 e.g., machine fraction equations, queuing models
 Analytical layout models/software
 Computer simulations
