If we ignore all orders which come after Stallion Apparel, Kibby & Strand has the following time information (you can get this information when you click on the Production button and go into the Station History tab after Week 3).

(a) Given that idle time is all time that is not productive or setup time, how much is the total idle time for the three resources combined.

(b) Derive the Resource Utilization for each resource shown in table above (i.e. Cutting, Sewing and Packing) for the 3-week period. Ignore the Taffys order (i.e. only use information given in the table above).

(c) Given that there is only 1 person working in each of these resources, what is the average labor utilization for the whole process for the 3-week period. Ignore the Taffys order (i.e. only use information given in the table above).

(d) Given the information in the table above, every production run at each resource requires 10 minutes of setup time. Explain what is setup time.

(e) Provided detailed recommendations how setup time can be possibly reduced. Your answer should include an explanation of the SMED philosophy and any other measures discussed in class to reduce setup time
