The material flow matrix for 10 departments is given below:

A. Simplify the from-to-chart B. Show an alternative block plan of the machines C. If we assign a grader for every movement involved and that moving the material if locations in the from-to are adjacent , grade assigned per unit will be 1 and if not an extra 2 per unit moved must be added.

i. Show values (units x the equivalent grade) in the from to chart ii. Redesign the block plan lower than the (i) the current plan.
