CASE: AmazonIn a visit to an Amazon distribution center, a group of business students and their professors met with the general manager. After taking them on an extensive tour of the five-acre facility, the general manager commented on the slowness of the visitors’ walking pace. He described the Amazon Pace, a fast, aggressive walk, and confirmed that the average employee walks eight or nine miles during a shift. These employees are called “pickers,” and their task is to fill an order and deliver it to the processing and packing center as quickly as possible. The design of the center is a trade secret that results in a random distribution of products. Therefore, the picker has to cover a number of directions and distances while filling an order. Those who cannot keep up the pace are usually let go, just as would be those who steal.Critical Thinking• Does the requirement to walk an average of eight or nine miles at a fast pace every day strike you as a reasonable expectation for…
Discuss the Toss-immediate buffer management strategy with an example.
The White Tooth Device Company is a manufacturer of high-end electric toothbrushes. For each toothbrush, there is a sequence of assembly steps performed by five workers. Each worker does two tasks. Inventory buffers are allowed between workers. (a) What is the capacity and cycle time of this process? (b) What is the idle time of each worker if the process operates at full capacity? (c) Suppose two workers could be hired, F and G, and they take the same time to complete tasks as the current five workers. F and G can be assigned to work on the same pair of tasks as one of the current workers. For example, F could be assigned tasks T1 and T2 (just like worker A) while G is assigned T5 and T6 (just like worker C). They cannot be assigned tasks that are currently assigned to two workers. For example, F cannot be assigned to tasks T2 and T3 (because they are currently being done by workers A and B). What is the capacity of this process with workers F and G included?
