 In
a production system, it is the timing

High-Volume Success Factors
 Process
and product design
 Preventive maintenance
 Rapid repair when breakdown occurs
 Optimal product mixes
 Minimization of quality problems
 Reliability and timing of supplies

be processed

a cost associated with a worker
completing a certain job. The
objective is to finish all the jobs by
the workers so that the total cost is
minimized.

Sequencing
 Sequencing:
Determine the order in which
jobs at a work center will be processed.
 Workstation: An
area where one person
works, usually with special equipment, on
a specialized job.
Introduction to Operations Management

Sequencing
 Priority
rules: Simple heuristics
Everything is
used to select the order in
#1 Priority
which jobs will be processed.
 Job
time: Time needed for
setup and processing of a job.

Priority Rules
 FCFS
 SPT
 DD
 CR
 S/O
 Rush
- first come, first served
- shortest processing time
- due date
- critical ratio
- slack per operation
Top Priority
- emergency

Two Work Center Sequencing
 Johnson’s
Rule: technique for minimizing
completion time for a group of jobs to be
processed on two machines or at two
work centers.
 Minimizes total idle time
 Several conditions must be satisfied
Introduction to Operations Management
13
Johnson’s Rule Conditions
 Job
time must be known and constant
 Job times must be independent of
sequence
 Jobs must follow same two-step sequence
 Job priorities cannot be used
 All units must be completed at the first
work center before moving to second

– Controls customer arrivals for service
 Reservation
systems
– Estimates demand for service

 Customer service requests are random
 Scheduling service involves
– Customers
– Workforce
– Equipment
