Productivity Production of Goods and Services In the production of goods and services, these concepts are essential for efficiency and effectiveness: Inventory Control The process of managing raw materials, work-in- progress, and finished goods to ensure that the right amount of stock is available at the right time while minimizing costs and avoiding shortages or excess inventory. Scheduling Planning and organizing production activities, including allocating resources, setting deadlines, and sequencing tasks to ensure smooth workflow and timely delivery of goods and services. Quality Control
The process of monitoring and inspecting
products or services to ensure they meet established standards and specifications. This involves testing, checking for defects, and taking corrective actions to maintain consistency and customer satisfaction. Productivity A measure of efficiency in production, typically calculated as the output per unit of input (e.g., labor, materials, or time). Higher productivity means producing more with fewer resources, leading to cost savings and increased profitability. How to maintain equipment Production of Goods and Services Maintaining equipment is crucial for ensuring smooth production, reducing downtime, and extending the lifespan of machinery. Here are some key maintenance strategies: 1. Preventive Maintenance (PM)
Regularly scheduled maintenance to prevent
unexpected breakdowns. Includes tasks like lubrication, cleaning, tightening bolts, and replacing worn-out parts. Example: Changing oil and filters in machines at set intervals. 2. Predictive Maintenance (PdM)
Uses data and sensors to monitor equipment
condition and predict failures before they occur. Involves techniques like vibration analysis, temperature monitoring, and oil analysis. Example: Using IoT sensors to detect overheating in motors. 3. Corrective Maintenance
Repairs made after a breakdown occurs.
Usually more costly due to unplanned downtime and emergency repairs. Example: Replacing a broken belt after it snaps. 4. Routine Inspections
Regular visual and operational checks to spot potential
issues early. Operators and technicians should be trained to detect unusual noises, vibrations, or leaks. Example: Checking hydraulic fluid levels before starting a shift. 5. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) Clear guidelines on how to properly operate and maintain equipment. Helps reduce wear and tear caused by misuse. Example: Having a checklist for safely shutting down machinery. 6. Training and Awareness
Educate employees on proper equipment use
and basic troubleshooting. Encourages early reporting of minor issues before they turn into major failures. Example: Training workers to recognize warning signs of motor failure. 7. Inventory Management for Spare Parts
Keeping essential spare parts on hand to reduce
downtime in case of breakdowns. Helps avoid delays in repairs due to waiting for parts. Example: Keeping extra bearings and belts for a conveyor system. 8. Software-Based Maintenance Management (CMMS)
Using a Computerized Maintenance Management
System (CMMS) to track maintenance schedules, log repairs, and analyze equipment performance. Helps in planning and optimizing maintenance activities. Example: A CMMS alerting when a machine needs servicing based on usage data. Add a Slide Title - 5
