Global Environment and Challenges for Operations Managers

• Global Competition• Productivity Improvement-service sector

productivity gains much lower in comparison with the manufacturing sector

• Rapid Technological Change• Ethical, Workforce Diversity and

Environmental Issues

1-14 Introduction to Operations Management

Operations Management Decisions

• Strategic • Planning• Tactical

1-15 Introduction to Operations Management

Operations Management Tools and Techniques

• Forecasting • Lean Systems• Operations Research

1-16 Introduction to Operations Management

Forecasting

1-17 Introduction to Operations Management

FORECAST:• A statement about the future

• Used to help managers– Plan the system– Plan the use of the system

1-18 Introduction to Operations Management

Forecast Uses• Plan the system

– Generally involves long-range plans related to:• Types of products and services to offer• Facility and equipment levels• Facility location

• Plan the use of the system– Generally involves short- and medium-range plans related to:

• Inventory management• Workforce levels• Purchasing• Budgeting

1-19 Introduction to Operations Management

• Assumes causal systempast ==> future

• Forecasts rarely perfect because of randomness

• Forecasts more accurate forgroups vs. individuals

• Forecast accuracy decreases as time horizon increases

Steps in the Forecasting Process

Step 1 Determine purpose of forecast

Step 2 Establish a time horizon

Step 3 Select a forecasting technique

Step 4 Gather and analyze data

Step 5 Make the forecast

Step 6 Monitor the forecast

“The forecast”

1-22 Introduction to Operations Management

Types of Forecasts

• Judgmental - uses subjective inputs (qualitative)

• Time series - uses historical data assuming the future will be like the past (quantitative)

• Associative models - uses explanatory variables to predict the future (quantitative)

1-23 Introduction to Operations Management

Judgmental Forecasts(Qualitative)

•Consumer surveys

•Delphi method

•Executive opinions

– Opinions of managers and staff

•Sales force.

1-24 Introduction to Operations Management

Time Series Forecasts

• Trend - long-term movement in data• Seasonality - short-term regular variations in

data• Cycle – wavelike variations of more than one

year’s duration• Irregular variations - caused by unusual

circumstances• Random variations (Stable)- caused by

chance

1-26 Introduction to Operations Management

Time Series Forecasts-Methods

• Naive• Averaging• Trend• Seasonality• Exponential smoothing

1-27 Introduction to Operations Management

Naive Method

Uh, give me a minute.... We sold 250 wheels lastweek.... Now, next week we should sell....

The forecast for any period equals the previous period’s actual value.

1-28 Introduction to Operations Management

Naïve Method

• Simple to use• Virtually no cost• Quick and easy to prepare• Data analysis is nonexistent• Easily understandable• Cannot provide high accuracy• Can be a standard for accuracy

1-29 Introduction to Operations Management

Naïve Method

• Stable time series data• Seasonal variations

– Next value in a series will equal the previous value in a comparable period

• Data with trends– F(t) = A(t-1) + (A(t-1) – A(t-2))

1-30 Introduction to Operations Management

Averaging Method

• Simple moving average

• Weighted moving average

1-31 Introduction to Operations Management

Moving Averages

• Simple Moving average – A technique that averages a number of recent actual values, updated as new values become available.

• Weighted moving average – More recent values in a series are given more weight in computing the forecast.

MAn = n

Aii = 1n

Trend Method-Linear Trend Equation

• Ft = Forecast for period t• t = Specified number of time periods• a = Value of Ft at t = 0• b = Slope of the line

Ft = a + bt

Ft

1-34 Introduction to Operations Management

Calculating a and b

b = n (ty) - t y

n t2 - ( t)2

a = y - b t

t = 1 5 t 2 = 5 5 y = 8 1 2 t y = 2 4 9 9( t ) 2 = 2 2 5

1-36 Introduction to Operations Management

Linear Trend Calculation

y = 143.5 + 6.3t

a = 812 - 6.3(15)

5 =

b = 5 (2499) - 15(812)

5(55) - 225 =

12495-12180

275 -225 = 6.3

143.5

1-37 Introduction to Operations Management

Seasonality

• Multiplicative Model

Demand=Trend x Seasonality (Seasonal Index)

Seasonality is the percentage of average (or trend) amount

1-38 Introduction to Operations Management

Exponential Smoothing

• Next forecast=α(Actual)+(1- α)(Previous forecast)

• α is the Smoothing Constant

1-39 Introduction to Operations Management

Associative Forecasting

• Predictor variables and variables of interest

• Simple Linear Regression – linear variation between the two variables

• Correlation coefficient r gives an indication of the strength of relationship between the two

variables.

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearson_product-moment_correlation_coefficient

• r2>0.8 good prediction;<0.25 poor prediction

1-40 Introduction to Operations Management

Forecast Accuracy

• Error - difference between actual value and predicted value

• Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD)– Average absolute error

• Mean Squared Error (MSE)– Average of squared error

• Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE)

– Average absolute percent error

1-41 Introduction to Operations Management

MAPE= 1.28

1-43 Introduction to Operations Management

Controlling the Forecast

• Control chart• Tracking signal

1-44 Introduction to Operations Management

Control chart• Control chart

– A visual tool for monitoring forecast errors– Used to detect non-randomness in errors

• Control limits: UCL=0+z√MSE;LCL=0-z√MSE (z typically=2 or 3)

• Forecasting errors are in control if

– All errors are within the control limits– No patterns, such as trends are present

1-45 Introduction to Operations Management

Tracking Signal

Tracking signal = (Actual-forecast)

MAD

•Tracking signal

–Ratio of cumulative error to MAD

Bias – Persistent tendency for forecasts to beGreater or less than actual values.Value of zero would be ideal for Tracking signal.Limits of +/-4 or +/- 5are often used for a range of acceptable values of the tracking signal.

1-46 Introduction to Operations Management

Sources of Forecast errors

• Model may be inadequate• Irregular variations• Incorrect use of forecasting technique

1-47 Introduction to Operations Management

Choosing a Forecasting Technique

• No single technique works in every situation• Two most important factors

– Cost– Accuracy

• Other factors include the availability of:– Historical data– Computers– Time needed to gather and analyze the data– Forecast horizon

What is Operations Research?• Operations Research is the scientific

approach to execute decision making, which consists of:

– The art of mathematical modeling of complex situations

– The science of the development of solution techniques used to solve these models

– The ability to effectively communicate the results to the decision maker

The Consequences of Poor Quality

• Loss of business• Liability• Productivity• Costs

1-60 Introduction to Operations Management

• Top management• Design• Procurement• Production/operations• Quality assurance• Packaging and shipping• Marketing and sales• Customer service

Responsibility for Quality

1-61 Introduction to Operations Management

Costs of Quality

• Failure Costs - costs incurred by defective parts/products or faulty services.

• Internal Failure Costs

– Costs incurred to fix problems that are detected before the product/service is delivered to the customer.

• External Failure Costs

– All costs incurred to fix problems that are detected after the product/service is delivered to the customer.

1-62 Introduction to Operations Management

Costs of Quality (continued)

• Appraisal Costs– Costs of activities designed to ensure quality or

uncover defects• Prevention Costs

– All TQ training, TQ planning, customer assessment, process control, and quality improvement costs to prevent defects from occurring

1-63 Introduction to Operations Management

• Substandard work– Defective products– Substandard service– Poor designs– Shoddy workmanship– Substandard parts and materials

Ethics and Quality

Having knowledge of this and failing to correctand report it in a timely manner is unethical.
