Introduction Plant layout planning includes decisions regarding the physical
allocation of the econo"ic activity centers in a facility. An econo"ic activity center is any entity occupying space. The objective of plant layout planning is a "ore effective
#or$ flo# at the facility% allo#ing #or$ers and e&uip"entbeing "ore productive.
Facility layout techni&ues apply to the case #here several physical"eans have to be located in a certain area% either industrialprocesses or services.
The objective of the chapter is not only Plant layout but re'layout also("ost co""on situation for a co"pany).
To carry out an appropriate plant layout% it*s i"portant to ta$e intoaccount the business strategic and tactical objectives

Introduction To "a$e a decision about layout planning% 2 different
&uestions "ust have an ans#er- Which centers do #e have to consider3
4o# "uch space and capacity is re&uired for each center3 If there is not enough space% productivity "ay be reduced.
Too "uch space is e,pensive and "ay also reduce productivity. 4o# "ust the space be configured at each center3
Space &uantity% shape and the ele"ents of the #or$ center are
related to each other.
Where should each center be located at #ithin the facility3 The allocation of the different centers "ay affect productivity.

Introduction The plant layout process starts at an aggregate level% ta$ing into
account the different depart"ents. As soon as #e get into the details%the different issues arise% and the original configuration "ay be
changed through a feedbac$ process.
0ost (if not all of the") layouts are designed properly for the initial
conditions of the business% although as long as the co"pany gro#s
and has to be adapted to internal and e,ternal changes% a re'layout isnecessary.

Types o Plant Layout Process oriented plant layout (Functional Layout)
This type of plant layout is useful #hen the productionprocess is organi6ed in batches.
Personnel and e&uip"ent to perfor" the sa"e function are
allocated in the sa"e area.
The different ite"s have to "ove fro" one area to anotherone% according to the se&uence of operations previously
established.
The variety of products to produce #ill lead to a diversity of
flo#s through the facility.
The variations in the production volu"es fro" one period to
the ne,t one (short periods of ti"e) "ay lead to "odifications
in the "anufactured &uantities as #ell as the types of
products to be produced.

Plant Layout or a ServiceBusiness Service =usinesses have a "ore direct custo"er
focus- The custo"er% #ith hisher presence% creates the #or$ flo#.
The #or$load forecast and the activities planning is not as
accurate as it is in a "anufacturing environ"ent.
7ueues- Seasonal and heterogeneous de"and- e,ecution ti"e can be
variable.
Services are intangible- adjust"ent bet#een de"and and production
can not be done through inventory "anage"ent.
7ueues are for"ed by people- higher i"plications for the layout.
