production systems

1. Process mapping

   • Process mapping is a planning and management tool that visually demonstrates the workflow within the company and its managers. In other words, it is a resource that simplifies and makes visible the value chain of your business.

2. planning

   • Production Planning has the objective of forecasting and mobilizing all the necessary resources for the production of a good, or for the provision of a service, in the appropriate period and in the correct quantities.

3. supplies

   • The input is everything that can serve and alleviate the needs of the human being, that is, we refer to all the raw materials that are used to produce new elements.

4. production process

   • A production process is the set of activities aimed at transforming resources or productive factors into goods and/or services. In this process, information and technology intervene, which interact with people. Its ultimate goal is the satisfaction of demand.
     • types of processes
       • 1. Collection / analytical stage: this first stage of production, raw materials are gathered to be used in manufacturing. The main objective of a company during this phase of the production process is to obtain the greatest amount of raw material possible at the lowest cost. In this calculation, transport and warehouse costs must also be considered.
       • 2. Production / synthesis stage: during this phase, the raw materials that were previously collected are transformed into the actual product that the company produces through its assembly. At this stage it is essential to observe the quality standards and control their compliance.
       • 3. Processing / conditioning stage: adaptation to customer needs or adaptation of the product for a new purpose are the goals of this production phase, which is the most oriented towards marketing itself.

5. production procedure

   • A production process is the set of activities aimed at transforming resources or productive factors into goods and/or services. In this process, information and technology intervene, which interact with people. Its ultimate goal is the satisfaction of demand.
     • types of procedures
       • *Product design. *Development of test models. *Analysis and evaluation of tests. *Launch to production.
         • product
           • A product for the economy is defined as the result obtained from the production process within a company. Therefore, everything that is produced or that results from the production process is a product. From the economic point of view, a product is everything that is exchanged in the market.

6. materials in production

   • The materials represent a set of basic units that, once they go through the transformation process, become finished products. This step is carried out through the use of labor that is added to various additional costs incurred during the execution of the project. worked
     • types of materials
       • The materials are divided into two types, the natural and the synthetic or rather, natural raw materials that are obtained from nature and that man uses at will and the synthetic raw material, which is made by man, through handling and sometimes mixing of natural raw material.

7. production control

   • Production control should refer to the control of all functions covered by the production area, that is, functions such as inventory and quality control belong to production control in its broadest sense.
     • It has a special importance in the life of an organization since it allows it to determine the deviation between what was planned and what was carried out and, as a consequence, correct the actions to achieve the objectives set.

8. orders

       • *By the conditions established between the parties. *For the object requested. *Due to the destination of the material. *Due to the order form. *Using the phone. *Using written media. *Order note. Through a commercial agent.

9. task times

   • Task times can be great for diagnosing usability problems. A long task time is often caused by problems with the interaction with the interface. Time on task can be collected even when users think aloud. Some studies show that it actually increases users' speed, rather than decrease it.

10. forecast

    • Forecasting consists of estimating and analyzing future demand using algorithms. The future demand for a product in a company is conditioned by multiple factors, sometimes difficult to determine exactly.

11. release

    • It is a document that the final recipient receives from the carrier that was in charge of the logistics and delivery of the product. It can be a simple message attached to an e-mail.

12. lead time

    • It is known as Lead Time (delivery time), the time that elapses from the time the purchase order is issued requesting the merchandise until the supplier delivers it to the customer. It is generally calculated in days.
