Process Design and Analysis: Process Development For Process Design Can Be Summarized Through Following Steps

The document discusses process design and analysis. It explains that process design breaks a product down into parts to aid manufacturing. Process design ensures a smooth relationship between required output and intermediate processes. For example, an air conditioner manufacturer must align production processes to meet seasonal demand. Process development involves defining requirements, building teams, planning and implementing processes, auditing, and retiring old processes. Process design must consider organizational objectives and customer value. Factors like volume, quality standards, equipment, demand, and customer involvement affect process design, which can be process-focused, product-focused, or group-technology based.

PROCESS DESIGN AND ANALYSIS

 Introduction
The objective of organization is to provide service and product, which satisfy customer and
create value for them. A product and service designed is based on the customer feedback and
requirement of the market. Process design is where the product is broken down into parts,
which further can be helpful in the actual manufacturing process.

A product, for example, has attractive packaging to provide the right aesthetics plus has
function and features, which provide value to customers. Process design ensures that there is
smooth and continuous relationship between required output and all the intermediate process.

For example, manufacturing of Air-Conditioners, process design has to be such that


maximum supply is achieved during the hot months of summer when demand of the product
is at the highest. So, people, process and machines need to align to give continuous
production throughout the year as to satisfy seasonal demand.

 Process Planning
Process development for process design can be summarized through following steps:

1. Process Requirement: The very 1st step is to collect and gather information to give
structure with the end objective. That is to make process requirement document
highlighting various stages, risk and stakeholders for production. This will include
assessment of available technology, raw material requirement, factory/plant layout
and demand forecast.
2. Team Building: Once the process requirements are finalized, for each objective, a
team is finalized based on skill level and experience. Function of the team is to get
familiarize with the whole process.
3. Planning and Implementation: Process planning team will develop module; policies
and procedure require for production, which are after required approval internal as
well as external is implemented.
4. Audit: A regular audit is carried out to ensure that process thus implemented is in line
and delivering value to customers.
5. End of Life: Over a course of time there may be enhancement of the product or
product may get discontinued in these circumstances, process thus develop is
discontinued.

 Production Process
Based on the nature of product and service production or conversion process can be divided
into two broad categories:

1. Continuous production (assembly line, oil refinery)

2. Intermittent production (job work, service).

Production process for both manufacturing industry and service industry can be classified
into broad categories based on standardization of product or service. It can range from single
project assignment like a building or bridge (manufacturing) to interior design (service) and
mass production project like a car (manufacturing) to a fast-food joint (Services).

 Process Design
A successful process design has to take into account the appropriateness of the process to
overall organization objective. Process design requires a broad view of the whole
organization and should not have a myopic outlook. And the process should deliver customer
value with constant involvement of the management at various stages.

In order to achieve a good process design, effective process strategy is required, which deals
with a singular line items required to manufacture the end product. Effective process strategy
deals with raw material procurement, customer participation, technology investment, etc.

Over a period of time process design has undergone change and new concepts like Flexible
Manufacturing Systems have been developed, which delivers efficient and effective
production design and analysis.

 Factors affecting the process design


1. Volume of product to be manufactured

2. Required quality of product

3. Equipment that is available

4. Nature of product demand

5. Degree of customer

 Types of process design


1. Process focused production system

2. Product focused production system

3. Group – technology manufacturing system
