This is an individual assignment.
Conestoga Incorporated, a ball bearing manufacturing company located in Guelph, Ontario, Canada receives raw material sheets from Ontario Steel Company once a week every Monday for a product family of retainers (casings in which ball bearings are held), and then ships its finished product daily to a second-tier automotive manufacturing customer named Rockwood Enterprises.
The product family of the bearing manufacturing company under consideration consists of two types of retainersRight Hand (RH) and Left Hand (LH)that are packaged for shipping in trays. The two types of retainers are identical mirror images of each other.
The manufacturing process consists of a cell containing a stamping operation, a forming cell, a machining cell, a grind cell, an inspection cell, and packaging operation after which the two types of retainers are shipped.
The information collected by the operations manager at Conestoga Inc. is shown in Table below.
