What is Operations?
• Operations is the set of activities that creates value in the form of goods and services by transforming inputs into outputs.– Goods: tangible products– Services: intangible products

What is Operations Management?
• Operations Management (OM) is decision making involving the design, planning and control of the many factors that affect operations.– Productivity, cost, flexibility, quality, service

What is Operations Management?
• Typical structure of organizations:– Marketing
– Finance– Human Resource– Production/Operations
• Operations are costly!
![Page 5: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Why bother with Operations Management?
• Manufacturing still important in the UK
• Manufacturing important in developing countries
• Global outsourcing – Supply chain issues
• Service has become more and more important
• Methods, tool, techniques can be carried over to other sectors– Government– Healthcare
![Page 6: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Three basic types of industrial sectors
• Primary. Agriculture etc
• Secondary. Manufacturing etc
• Tertiary. Services etc
• As a country develops, its businesses migrate from primary to secondary to tertiary sectors
• This means that the type of operations change over time, and as Operations Managers our tasks will change over time

![Page 17: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The secret formula for an MBA• An MBA is 180 academic credits.
– According to the UK’s QAA standards this is equivalent to 1800 hours of study.
• 1800 hrs / 48 weeks = 37.5 hrs a week study• Operations Analysis = 10 credits
– 10 credits = 100 hours of study– 20 hours of lectures, 8 hours of syndicates– 100 - 20 - 8 = 72 hours of self study and revision
• 72 hours / 10 weeks= 7.2 hrs a week of self study for Operations Analysis!
• If you turned up after week 2 then you need to do 9.5 hrs self study a week on Operations Analysis (week 3 it requires 11.5 hrs per week)!

Formula sheets in the exams• I do give out formula sheets for the more
complicated equations as remembering equations is not a learning objective.
• However, you will be excepted to apply, use, critic, adapt equations in formula sheets to both theoretical and practical situations.
• I also expect you to be able to derive solutions (usually of the simpler equations) from first principles, this is a learning objective. – In this case I will, of course, not give to the equation in a
formula sheet as that would be giving away the answer!

End of Introduction to Operations Analysis
Lecture 1. Process mapping
![Page 24: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Process mapping
• Process mapping describes processes in terms of how the activities within the process relate to each other.
• There are different techniques for process mapping (we will cover that in the next lecture), but they both have the following features:
– They identify different types of activities that take place during the process
– They show the flow of materials, people or information through the process
![Page 25: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Purpose of process mapping
• Overview– Identify what actually takes place
• Basics for discussion– Clarity for yourself and others
– Understand how different players view the process under study and the tasks and activities in the process
• Opportunity to see improvements– Evaluate different process designs
– Identify value adding and wasteful activities
– Aid in the design of a simpler/ more effective systems
• Skills you can use anywhere
• Increases your effectiveness
![Page 26: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Procedure of process mapping
• Describe the process that you want to map– “The process has the purpose of …”
– “The aim of this process is to …”
• Identify names of tasks– Which event triggers the above said process
– Which event concludes it
– Which tasks are included in the process
• What kind of the task is it?– Operation; transport; store; delay; inspection; decision; …
• Identify the person/role/department who carries out the step– Yourself; your assistant; the finance department, …
![Page 27: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Cross-functionalprocess maps
•Sometimes it is useful to use “streamed” process maps highlight the roles different people (or departments) play in delivering the product or service.
•AKA process maps with “swimming lanes”
![Page 31: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Shopping for a pair of jeans
![Page 32: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Purpose, viewpoint and detail• When drawing a process map it is important to keep
in mind the purpose of your study – Maps drawn for one purpose may not be suitable for another purpose
• Different viewpoints of the process exist– A customers view of the process is different from a company’s view
or the product’s (or paper / information) view (indeed different customers may also have different perspectives / opinions).
• The appropriate level of detail is affected by the purpose and context of your study– At a supply chain level, perhaps a whole factory can be considered an
operation. Mapping inside the factory though requires much more detail.
• Process mapping requires skill & professional judgement
![Page 33: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The four process states• You should always tackle a process mapping
problem with a sceptical mind as there are four process states– What people say it is– What they perceive it to be– What it actually is
– What it should be
• Remember, people may be lazy, ignorant or afraid and they do lie!
![Page 34: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Critical examination of your process map
• After we have drawn a map of the “as is” situation we need to improve it.
• We do this by critically examining the map to
- determine the true reasons behind each event
- draw up a list of improvements
• Focus attention first on each individual event and then on the process as a whole
![Page 35: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Your attitude will affect your process mapping results!
1. Facts must be established. Do not accept what “appears to be”, or “should be” or what is “said to be”
2. Preconceptions must not be allowed to colour the facts3. The problem must be tackled with a challenging and
sceptical attitude4. Hasty judgements must be avoided5. Detail must receive persistent and close attention6. Experiments not based on firm evidence should be
documented and reserved to the appropriate place in the investigation
7. New methods should not be considered until all the features of the current method have been systematically examined
![Page 36: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
The seven lean wastes (DOTWIMP)• Defects. Any repair, rework or spoilage.• Over production. Producing too much or producing too
soon. – Overproduction is the worst waste because it hides or generates all
others, especially the inventory waste. • Transportation. All transport is a waste.• Waiting. For parts, people or machines. • Inventory. Any more than the minimum amount required to
get the job done.• Motion. Any motion (of man) that does not add value.• Processing. Excess capacity, excess quality standards.
• But what about wasting people’s talent? Or energy?
![Page 37: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Waste Definition Causes Why is it a waste?
Transport• Unnecessary movement of parts between processes• Unnecessary material handling
• Badly designed process/cell• Complex material flow • Poor value stream flow• Sharing of equipment
• Increases production time• Products could get damaged during transit• Takes time, resources & space• Increases WIP
Inventory• Any raw material, WIP or finished goods which are not having value added to them
• Mismatch between demand & production• Inaccurate forecasting• Excessive downtime / set up• Push instead of pull• Large batch sizes• Unreliable suppliers
• Adds cost & requires investment• Requires space to store• Extra resources needed to manage• Hides shortages & defects• Can become stolen, damaged, obsolete & out of date• Needs to be insured
Motion• Waste motion occurs when individuals move more than is necessary to complete the process
• No standard operating procedure• Poor housekeeping• Badly designed cell• Inadequate training
• Adds cost• Interrupts production flow• Increases production time• Can cause injury
Waiting • People or parts that wait for a work cycle to be completed
• Shortages & unreliable supply chain• Lack of flexible workers• Downtime / Breakdown• Ineffective production planning• Large batch sizes• Quality, design, engineering issues
• Stop / start production• Poor workflow continuity• Creates bottlenecks• Loses capacity• Lengthens lead times• Failed delivery dates
Over-Production
• To produce sooner, faster or in greater quantities than required to meet customer demand • Manufacturing too much, too early or “Just in Case”
• MRP push rather than kanban pull • Large batch sizes • Looks better to be busy• Lack of customer focus
• It costs money to consume resources before you have too• It creates inventory & that hides quality problems and uses up space • Overproduction discourages a smooth flow of goods or services
Over-Processing
• Processing beyond the standard required by the customer
• Out of date standards• ‘We have always done it like this’ attitude• Not understanding the customer & the process• Lack of innovation & improvement• Lack of standard operation procedures
• By improving processing efficiency we ultimately use less resource to achieve the same customer satisfaction• It increases productive time• It’s work above and beyond specification
Defects
• A defect is a component which the customer would deem unacceptable to pass the quality standard
• Out of control/Incapable processes• Lack of skills, training & on the job support• Inaccurate design & engineering• Machine inaccuracy• Black art processes
• Defects reduce or discourage customer satisfaction • Defects have to be rectified which costs money, time, effort, materials & creates paper work• Defects in the field reduces customer confidence & you could lose customers• Defects interrupt the schedule
![Page 38: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Waste is everywhere
• Many (all?) processes have wasteful activities
• The target is to eliminate waste
• This is usually done by reducing complexity in the process (i.e. simplifying it!)
• Each process consists of value add and non-value add (waste) activities
![Page 39: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
VA and NVA activities

Redesigned process
![Page 40: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Categories of waste
Value add (VA) activitiesAnything that the customer is willing to pay for
Non-value add (NVA) activitiesAn activity that costs money but does not add value to the need
(perceived as waste)
Something the customer is not willing to pay for
Necessary NVA (NNVA) activitiesNNVA activities are NVA activities that do not add value but which
are essential to ensure that the VA activities fulfil the need
NNVA activities may also be there to meet legal requirements
![Page 41: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
What is a value adding activity?
To be a value added action the action must meet all three of the following criteria:
1) The customer is willing to pay for this activity.
2) It must be done right the first time.
3) The action must somehow change the product or service in some manner.
![Page 42: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Waste measurement & reduction
VA and NVA activities usually defined in terms of time
The main principals to waste reduction are:Elimination (of activities)
Time compression (doing things quicker)
Concurrency (parallel operations)
VA and NVA activities are identified via process modelling
![Page 43: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Shopping for Silk in Shanghai
Notice how the numbers are used. Within which category numbers are consecutively. This allows the number of each category to be easily determined, by simply observing the last instance of each category.

Examine the operations first• Transports and delays may superficially appear to
give the greatest scope for improvement
• However it is often possible to streamline the process by considering the operations first. - Can they be eliminated?
- Can they be re-ordered?
This will then alter the transport and delays • If the operations are “capable” do we require so
many inspections?
![Page 51: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Primary examination of each activity1) Purpose. “What is achieved?” and “is it necessary?”.
Challenge why the activity exists. The answer will guide you to whether a particular activity should be included in the new process
2) Place. “Where is it done?” and “Why there?”
3) Sequence. “When is it done?” and “Why then?”. This will guide you towards the best sequence of events
4) Person. “Who does it?” and “Why that person?”
5) Means. “How is it done?” and “Why is it done that way?”
![Page 52: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Secondary examination of each activity
1) Purpose. “What else could be done?” and “What else should be done?”
2) Place. “Where else could it be done?” and “Where should it be done?”
3) Sequence. “When else could it be done?” and “When should it be?”.
4) Person. “Who else could do it?” and “Who should do it?”
5) Means. “How else could it be done?” and “How should it be done?”
![Page 53: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Purpose of the examination• The answers will guide you towards the new design• Unnecessary activities can be eliminated• If an activity can’t be eliminated it could be
- changed - combined with another activity - done in a different place- done in a different order (in parallel?)- done by different people- done by a different means
• Could an activity be simplified?• Could an activity be made to be external to the
process?

F1 pit stop
• “You could design new equipment to shave off a tenth, or five-hundredths of a second, but it’s expensive and there’s a point at which the resources could be better allocated elsewhere.”
– Jonathan Wheatley, Red Bull Team Manager
![Page 64: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED)• When a machine (or operator) is required to produce
more then one product (or service) then a “set-up” or “changeover” may be necessary when the machine changes from producing one product to another.
• SMED, or Single Minute Exchange of Dies is a technique invented Dr Shigeo Shingo to reduce the waste incurred to convert processes from running one part or operation to another.
![Page 65: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)

Internal and external set-up activities• An internal activity is the work done whilst the
machine is not producing good product.
• An external activity is the work done whilst the machine is producing good product.
• If there is no machine in your scenario, think about the “core” activity that progresses the work to its final state in order to identify what is internal or external. – Internal changeover activities delay the progress towards
the final state, external activities do not.
![Page 67: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Charging the battery on your camera • Scenario 1. Before SMED
– 1a. You are taking pictures and the battery runs out.– 1b. You plug the power cable into the camera and wait for the battery to be
charged. Whilst this is happening you are not taking any pictures.– 1c. Unplug the power cable– 1d. Carry on taking pictures
• Activity 1b and 1c are the internal changeover / set-up activities
• Scenario 2. After SMED– 2a. You are taking pictures and the battery runs out.– 2b. You remove the flat battery and replace it with a previously fully charged
battery.– 2c. Carry on taking pictures.– 2d. You plug in the power cable and charge the flat battery at your
convenience.• Activity 2b is an internal set-up activity and 2d is an external set-up
activity
![Page 68: (1) 2014 process mapping 3](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/5596eb501a28abee1d8b473e/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
A four stage approach to achieve SMED
• Step 1. Separate out the internal tasks from the external tasks (move the external tasks backwards or forwards, introduce parallelization)
• Step 2. Reduce the number and duration of the internal tasks. Sometimes you need to convert internal tasks to external ones
• Step 3. Reduce the external tasks. • Step 4. Improve all set-up activities.

Imagine you are in the Tour de France…The tour de France is a bike race. You are in the front group, but you get a flat tire.
You raise your hand up to signal the officials’ car immediately behind the group that there’s something wrong so they can announce it on race radio. The hand you raise makes a difference. If it’s your rear wheel that is flat, you raise your right hand - you raise your left hand for a front flat.
Prepare the bike. If your rear wheel is flat, shift your gears into the smallest cog on the rear wheel in order to make the current wheel drop out of the rear end more easily and make it easier for the mechanic to get the new one on. Whether it’s a front or rear wheel change, you flip the release lever on the brake so the pads move away from the rim.
Remove the offending wheelIf you have time before the mechanic arrives, flip the quick release lever and remove the wheel from the bike.
When the mechanic arrives with the new wheel, remember to hold on to the bike as the mechanic is completely focused on getting the new wheel on and secured, not holding the bike upright. If you hold onto the bike, he can use both hands to get the wheel change done faster.
Get started again.Staying calm is the key to getting going again quickly. Take a deep breath, get one foot on the pedal and shove off. Let the mechanic give you a push and then focus on catching up with the group.
Homework Question. Draw a process map of this activity. Highlight which are the internal tasks and the external tasks.
