- Staffing to supply
- Line balancing
- Off loading the bottleneck
- Specialization
Homework Answers
Process efficiency is the output of a business process for a unit of input. Processes are often repeatable aspects of a business that can be heavily optimized to improve efficiency. The following are common types of process efficiency.
Basis above, following are examples of process efficiency :
- Line Balancing : It improves cycle time / takt time and therefore increases output
- Off loading the bottleneck : Capacity of a process increases by offloading a bottleneck and therefore output increases
- Specialization : Specialization helps a firm to achieve more output within a given period of time or within given resources
“Staffing Capacity” does not in any way increases process efficiency

The goal is to design controllers which will improve the efficiency of the elevator system, i.e., to enable fast positioning of the car without big vibrations which may lead to not only longer time for positioning (why?), but also safety risks or damage to environment and the machine itself a) Elaborate on how you would design feedback controllers to improve the efficiency of the elevating system. Lists several (at least two) sets of input-output variables for...

Which one of the following statements is true? Throughput contribution is not increased when non-bottleneck output is increased. a. The elimination of defects always increases productivity. b. Non-bottleneck operations should be refined for high efficiency before starting on bottleneck improvement because non-bottleneck operations are generally easier to correct and improve. С. d. Quality and time are seldom related in service industries. The elimination of defects always decreases revenues. е.
