A product currently requires eight moves. By redesigning the manufacturing layout, the number of moves can be reduced from eight to zero. The cost per move is $$10.$ evaluation program, product redesign, and process redesign reduced the need for inspection by creating a zero$-$defect environment. and increasing the quality of the purchased component, the average number of components can be reduced to five components per unit. The cost per component is $$600.$ reduced demand are $$900,000$ per year.
