4. Prepare a short Memo explaining WHAT changes you would make and HOW these improvements are to be implemented. State ALL assumptions clearly and explain / clarify your reasoning. Max 500 words; word-count required. [20pts]

General Information Summary

1. Raadler Co runs 2 consecutive 8-hour shifts; after PFD allowances, total available production time per shift = 6.5h; 22 working days per month; 2 shifts constitute 1 day of production; set-up and cleaning between shifts = 1.0h; customer daily demand is 450 pcs Finished Goods;

2. Transit time from Supplier to Receiving Dock = average of 8 days.

3. Standardized Order Quantity = 1000 pieces (production inputs and related materials to produce units of output);

4. Order Frequency = every 3 weeks, excluding transit time;

5. Time required to receive materials into Inventory and Production = 3h every 6 weeks, from 6am to 12pm; during this time, Production is reduced by approximately 50% as Labour is taken off workstations to deal with Receiving and Recording inventory; this task consumes 1 Worker for the duration;

6. STAMPING - 50 pcs per batch; per pc C/T = 6 sec; C/O (after each 50pcs batch) = 720 sec; 1 Machine / 1 Worker;

7. Queue Time from Receiving to STAMPING = 90 sec per batch;

8. FPY STAMPING = 87%;

9. BENDING / HEAT TREAT = based on FPY units of previous W/S; 50 pcs batch size (ideal); per pc C/T = 165s; C/O (after each 50 pcs batch) = N/A; 2 Machines / 2 Workers; assume 1 pc in each oven concurrently taking 165s.

10. Queue Time from STAMPING to BENDING / HEAT TREAT = 112 sec per batch;

11. FPY BENDING / HEAT TREAT = 78%; Rework occurs at W/S before moving to next W/S;

12. MACHINING = based on FPY of previous W/S, including rework; 50 pcs per batch (ideal); per pc C/T = 75 sec; C/O (after 3 batches) = 840 sec; 1 Machine / 1 Worker;

13. Queue Time from BENDING / HEAT TREAT to MACHINING = 132 sec per batch;

14. FPY MACHINING = 84%; Rework occurs at W/S before moving to next W/S;

15. POLISHING = based on FPY units of previous W/S; 50 pcs batch size (ideal); per pc C/T = 60 sec; C/O (after each 50 pcs batch) = 30 sec; 1 Machine / 1 Worker;

16. Queue Time from MACHINING to POLISHING = 87 sec per batch;

17. FPY POLISHING = 100%;

18. INSPECTION / SHIPPING = 15% randomly selected daily output quantities for INSPECTION; Rejection / Waste = 4-6% (average); 1 Machine / 2 Workers;

19. Transit Time from SHIPPING to Customer = 8 days;

20. C/T = C/T (touch) + C/T (Oven, Equipment); Record Any Additional Assumptions clearly in your work;

Hi, I am going to know the answer and step-by-step calculations for questions 1 to 4.

Thanks
