Document Summary
Msci 131 work design and facilities planning. 9. 3 traditional industrial engineering charting and diagramming techniques. Analyst is intimately familiar with the process and develops a graphic to represent it. Analyst observes and records information about the process. One-on-one interviews with those familiar with the process. Group meetings with personnel familiar with process. Algorithmic analysis (e. g. , line balancing, critical path methods) Checklists general questions applied to the particular process. Brainstorming team activity in which participants contribute recommendations. Separating value-added and non-value-added operations: value added steps: Physically change the product or service: non-value-added operations: E. g. rework, delays, unnecessary inspections, unnecessary moves. Categories of charts and diagrams: network diagrams, traditional methods engineering charts and diagrams, block diagrams and process maps. Network diagrams: a network diagram consists of, nodes representing operations, work elements, tasks, or other entities, arrows connecting the nodes indicating relationships among the nodes, two-way flows, e. g. : movement of materials, one-way arrows, e. g. :precedence.
