Chapter 5 Design of Goods and Services (True/False)

1) Nautique Boat Company uses 3D printing to create parts that help model new design features for the production team.

2) Product strategy may focus on developing a competitive advantage via either differentiation, low cost, or rapid response, but not a combination of these.

3) The decline phase of a product life cycle needs to focus on high-volume, innovative production.

4) In the growth phase of the product life cycle, product design has begun to stabilize and effective forecasting of capacity requirements is necessary.

5) In the maturity stage of the product life cycle, operations managers will be particularly concerned with adding capacity or enhancing existing capacity to accommodate the increase in product demand.

6) Relatively few new product ideas, perhaps only 1 in 10,000, become successfully marketed products for DuPont.

7) 3M's goal is to produce 30% of its profit from products introduced in the past 4 years.

8) Rubbermaid introduces a new product every day.

9) Social and demographic change may appear in factors related to economic cycles.

10) Technological change directly brings about new trade agreements and tariffs.

11) Economic progress brings increasing levels of affluence in the long run but economic cycles and price changes in the short run.

12) Quality function deployment refers to both (1) determining what will satisfy the customer and (2) and matching the customer requirements to the deployment of manufacturing capacity resources.

13) Quality function deployment is used mainly in the after-sales stage to build customer loyalty.

14) House of quality is the name given home to the quality department in an organization.

15) Quality function deployment provides an analytical tool that structures design features and technical issues, as well as providing importance rankings and competitor comparison.

16) A common Japanese approach for organizing for product development is the creation of product development teams.

17) Concurrent engineering brings product, process, and quality engineers, as well as suppliers and marketing personnel together for speedier product development.

18) Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) refers to the use of specialized computer programs to direct and control manufacturing equipment.

19) Robust design ensures that small variations in production or assembly do not adversely affect the product.

20) Design for manufacture and assembly (DFMA) software allows designers to look at the effect of design on manufacturing of the product.

21) Standard for the exchange of product data (STEP) provides a format allowing the electronic transmission of four-dimensional data.

22) Rapidly developing products and moving them to the market is part of time-based competition.

23) The enhancement of existing products is an external product development strategy.

24) The use of joint ventures is an internal product development strategy.

Outcome: Describe major approaches to sales and operations planning

25) The risk of product development is shared in an external product development strategy approach.

26) A rapid speed of product development can be achieved using an internal product development strategy compared to an external product development strategy approach.

27) The "make-or-buy" decision distinguishes between what an organization chooses to produce and what it chooses to purchase from suppliers.

28) Group technology enables the grouping of parts into families based on similar processing requirements.

29) An engineering drawing shows a list of hierarchy of components, their description, and quantity required of each to make one unit of a product.

30) Group technology distinguishes between what the firm wants to produce and what it wants to purchase.

31) A work order is a list of the hierarchy of components, their description, and the quantity of each required to make one unit of the product.

32) A route sheet lists the operations necessary to produce the component.

33) An assembly drawing shows an exploded view of the product, usually a three-dimensional or isometric drawing.

34) An engineering change notice is issued during a production shift when a process industrial engineer is reassigned and replaced by another.

35) All Boeing 777s are built exactly alike.
