MGMT 1 Study Guide - Final Guide: Statistical Process Control, Computer-Aided Manufacturing, Computer-Aided Design
Document Summary
Form utility: value producers add to materials in the creation of finished goods and services. Operations management: specialized area in management that converts or transforms resources into goods and services. Process manufacturing: production process that physically or chemically changes materials. Continuous process: production process in which long run production runs turns out finished goods over time. Intermittent process: production process in which the production run is short and the machines are changed frequently to make different products. Computer integrated manufacturing (cim): computer aided design with computer aided manufacturing. Modular layout: teams of workers combine to produce more complex units of the final product. Process layout: similar equipment and functions are grouped together. Six sigma quality: a quality measure that allows only 3. 4 defects per million opportunities. Statistical quality control (sqc): managers continually monitor all phases of production process to ensure that quality is being built into the product from the beginning.
