Effects of Production Management and Technologies on Organizational Strategies
Course Objectives
Being responsive to demand, maximizing the utilization of the organization's production resources, and reducing inventory while executing proper planning of supply and demand, all serve to emphasize the importance of the topic of production planning. Production Planning holds significance within the Supply Chain, and when it is well-integrated with supply and sales, a synergic structure is established, leading to reduced costs. Production managers need to be aware that within the context of the greater supply chain, production is one component and not the pinnacle, and that it will only benefit the organization when it relates well to the rest of the processes in the business. On the other hand, they also need to provide guidance on whether production should be realized internally or through contract manufacturing, and furthermore, in light of cost-benefit analysis, whether a product should be manufactured at all.
Analysis of the fundamental concepts of production management, relationships among the departments within a manufacturing organization, as well as analysis of the latest trends in the field.
