Concept explainers
You are product planner for product A (in Problem 14.14 and Figure 14.14). The field
a) Prepare a list showing the quantity of each part required to produce the requirements for the service manager and the production request of 10 Hs and Fs.
b) Prepare a net requirement plan by date for the new requirements (for both production and field service), assuming that the field service manager wants his 10 units of B and F in week 6 and the 10 production units of A in week 8.

- What are the net requirements of each item in the MPS? Item Net Requirements X A B C D E F Garrow_forwardAs the production planner for Xiangling Hu Products, Inc., you have been given a bill of material for a bracket that is made up of a base, 1 spring, and 3 clamps. The base is assembled from 2 clamp and 1 housing. Each clamp has 1 handle and 1 casting. Each housing has 2 bearing and 2 shaft. There is no inventory on hand. Part 2 a) Design a product structure noting the quantities for each item and show the low-level coding. Match each number in the structure below with the corresponding item. Number Item I Bracket II Spring Subscript left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis III Clamp Subscript left parenthesis 3 right parenthesis IV Bearing Subscript left parenthesis 2 rightarrow_forwardDraw a simple bill-of-materials (BOM) for a smart phone given the following requirements: (a) clearly label the end item and each component, (b) the BOM must contain no more than ten items, (c) the BOM must contain at least three levels (you may count the end-item level zero).arrow_forward
- Distinguish between functional and non-functional demands by explaining how a system requirements engineer keeps track of the relationships between them.arrow_forwardAs the production planner for Xiangling Hu Products, Inc., you have been given a bill of material for a bracket that is made up of a base, two springs, and four clamps. The base isassembled from one clamp and two housings. Each clamp has one handle and one casting. Each housing has two bearings and one shaft. There is no inventory on hand.a) Design a product structure noting the quantities for each item and show the low-level coding.b) Determine the gross quantities needed of each item if you are to assemble 50 brackets.c) Compute the net quantities needed if there are 25 of the base and 100 of the clamp in stock.arrow_forwardThe following table lists the components needed to assemble an end item. Assume there is no on-hand inventories. Item Direct Components End item A(4), B(5), C(4) A E(3), F(2) B D(3), E(5) C F(4) D E F E(4) If 3 units of the end item are to be assembled, how many units of component E are needed? Input should be an exact number.arrow_forward

- Build a gross requirements planarrow_forward1. You are working on a project to develop a new system to help eligible students to find jobs that are in line with their courses. The system must be tailored to the student population and be easy to use. Write a summary on how you would collect requirements and include a requirements matrix with five functional requirements on matching the subjects that a student has taken and job requirements from an online job post.arrow_forwarda) Given the product structure and master production scheduleshown in Figure 14.12, develop a gross requirements plan forall items.b) G iven the product structure, master production schedule, andinven tory status shown in Figure 14.12, develop a net requirementsplan (planned order release) for all items.arrow_forward
