- Question3: Two processes are applied in the same order to the jobs coming to a workstation. The durations of both processes for the six jobs coming to the workstation are as seen in the table. In order to minimize the total time to be spent on the jobs, the order in which the jobs should be done will be determined by the "johnson" rule. Accordingly, in the table below, write the order in which the business should do the work, in order, with the first things to be done on the far left, and one action to be written in each blank.1-) When the jobs are done in this order, how many minutes will it take to complete all the jobs?2-)1.

Two Architectural Companies have provided building plans and technical schematics for the project. Management are happy with the proposals of both Standard apartment and Deluxe apartment. After investigating the steps involved in construction, management determined that each apartment complex built will require some resources. Management analysed each of the bids and concluded that if the plans of Standard apartment are built, it requires 0.7 days in foundation works, 0.5 days in the masonry, 1 day in finishing, and 0.1 days in painting works. Deluxe apartment will require 1 day in foundation works, 0.83 days in the masonry, 0.67 days in finishing, and 0.25 days in the painting works. Management estimate that, 630 days for foundation works, 600 days for masonry, 708 days for finishing and 135 days for 11painting works…arrow_forward
