MSC 385 Supply Chain Test 1

This may be as many terms as the decks get or I may add how-to cards about the problems (probably only to StudyLib). Kartka.ai link: https://app.kartka.ai/shared/decks/5C7AzqnuWEPX2jzeHisLFdqK

  • Supply Chain
    A sequence of activities and organizations involved in producing and delivering a good or service
  • Process
    One or more actions that transform inputs into outputs
  • Cause & Effect Diagram Alternate Names
    Ishikawa diagram and Fishbone diagram
  • Why to use Cause and Effect diagrams
    To identify a problem’s potential causes
  • Order qualifiers
    Characteristics that customers perceive as minimum acceptability standards for a product or service to be considered as a potential for purchase
  • Order winners
    An organization’s goods’ or services’ characteristics that cause them to be perceived as better than the competition
  • Feasible solution space
    the set of all feasible decision variable combinations as defined by the constraints
  • Decision variables
    amounts of either inputs or outputs
  • objective function (definition)
    mathematical statement of profit (or cost, etc.) for a given solution
  • binding constraint definition
    a constraint that forms the optimal corner point of the feasible solution space
  • operations management
    the management of systems or processes that create goods and/or provide services
  • Productivity Formula
  • bullwhip effect
    the amplification of upstream demand variation in the supply chain
  • Supply chain management’s goal
    To match supply to demand as effectively and efficiently as possible
  • Job shop
    small-scale process type used for low volumes of high-variety goods or services
  • Job shop's processing, flexibility, equipment, and workers
    intermittent processing, high flexibility, general-purpose equipment, and skilled workers
  • Job shop examples
    die shop and veterinarian's office
  • Line balancing's goal
    to obtain task groupings that represent approximately equal time requirements
  • Reverse logistics
    the process of transporting returned items
  • Process selection's primary concern
    how much variety and volume the process will need to be able to handle
  • Objective function (example)
  • Cause and effect
    there is a problem, the effect, and a need to identify the problem's potential causes
  • Logistics components
    movements within a facility, incoming shipments, and outgoing shipments
  • Supply chain management's goals (key issues)
    determining appropriate outsourcing levels, managing procurement, managing suppliers, managing customer relationships, and being able to identify problems quickly and respond to them quickly
  • Purchasing
    has responsibility for procurement of materials, supplies, and equipment and evaluates vendors for quality, reliability, service, price, and ability to adjust to changing demand; also involved in receiving and inspecting the purchased goods
  • Surplus
    the amount by which the result value exceeds the right-hand side value when decision variables' values are substituted into a greater-than-or-equal-to (≥) constraint
  • Slack
    the amount by which the result value is less than the right-hand side value when decision variables' values are substituted into a less-than-or-equal-to (≤) constraint
  • Binding constraint's purpose
    effectively limiting the objective function's value
  • Non-binding constraint
    condition in which there is no value for additional quantities because slack or surplus is present
  • Variable Cells
    Decision variables as mislabeled by Excel
  • Shadow price
    Amount by which the the objective function's value would change with a one-unit change in a constraint's right-hand side value
  • minimum cycle time
    maximum single task time
