Consider the following statements true or false

1. A process analysis and improvement methodology can be applied to services. 2. The implementation of a manufacturing cell can comply with the minimization of the costs of flows between workstations. 3. An activity is only critical when its nominal productive capacity is lower than the needs of the demand. 4. Normally the improvements introduced in a productive process are more beneficial in the launch phase of a product. 5. Principles of economy of motion call for the proper use of both hands, namely with alternating movements of greater and lesser movement. 6. When we talk about the desired cycle time for a production line, we are referring to the shortest possible time, which will require some transfer batches to be unitary. 7. When automatic machines are assigned to a single operator, these machines should be of the same type. 8. A numerical model for studying a system is a simplification of an analytical model. 9. The formulation of improvement proposals and their validation can be achieved by using simulation programs (commonly called simulators). 10. There are tools to support the formulation of improvements (or improvement tools), said to be comprehensive (referring to a good part of the whole organization), whose validation can be assured through benchmarking. 11. The Poka-yoke technique can be considered an improvement proposal tool. 12. The resources of a manufacturing cell should not be shared with other cells
