Wast company is in interested in improving operating performance. The following data is reported.

Inspection : 1 days
Process time: 4 days
Wait time: 10 days
Queue time: 5 days
Move time: 12 days

Required:

1. Compute the delivery cycle time.
Delivery Cycle Time=  days
2. Compute the manufacturing cycle time.
Manufacturing Cycle Time=  days
3. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency. (Enter the answer as a fraction of 1, not as %; Round up to the three decimal places)
Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency=
4. If all queue time can be eliminated in production, what will be the new manufacturing cycle efficiency? (Enter the answer as a fraction of 1, not as %; Round up to the three decimal places)

Answer #1

SOLUTION

1. Delivery Cycle Time = Process time + Move time + Inspection time + Queue time + Wait time

= 4 days + 12 days + 1 day + 5 days + 10 days

= 32 days

2. Manufacturing Cycle Time = Process time + Move time + Inspection time + Queue time

= 4 days + 12 days + 1 day + 5 days

= 22 days

3. Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = Process time / Manufacturing Cycle Time

= 4 days / 22 days

= 0.182

4. New Manufacturing Cycle Time = Process time + Move time + Inspection time

= 4 days + 12 days + 1 day = 17 days

New Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = Process time / New Manufacturing Cycle Time

= 4/ 17 = 0.235
