CONCEPT OF PRODUCTION

Production is defined as ‟the step-by-step conversion of one form of material into


another form through chemical or mechanical process to create or enhance the utility of
the product to the user”.

Thus production is a value addition process. At each stage of processing, there will be value
addition.

Edwod Buffa defines production ‟a process by which goods and services are created”.

Example For Prodcution

Manufacturing custom-made products

Like- 1. Boilers with a specify capacity


2. Constructing flats
3. Structural fabrication works for selected customers, etc.

Manufacturing standardized products

Like- 1. Car
2. Bus
3. Motor cycle
4. Television, etc.

 PRODUCTION SYSTEM
The production system of an organization is that part, which produces products of an
organization.

It is that activity whereby Resources, flowing within a defined system, are combined &
trasnfered in a controlled manner to add value in accordance with the policies
communicated by management.
 Characteristics Of Production System

1. Production is an organized activity, so every production system has an objective.


2. The system transforms the various Inputs to useful Outputs.
3. It doesnt operate in Isolation from the other organization system.
4. There exists a feedback about the activities, which is essential to control and improve
system performance.

 Classification
Job shop Production
Batch Proudction
Mass Production
Continous Production
 OBJECTIVES OF PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT

The objective ot the production management is to produce goods


services of right quality and quantity at the right time and right
manufacturing costs.

1. Right quality:
The quality of product is established based upon the customers needs.
The right quality is not necessarily best quality. It is determined by the
cost of the product and the technical characteristics as suited to the
specific requirements.

2. Right quantity:
The manufacturing organization should produce the products in right
number. If they are produced in excess of demand the capital will
block up in the form of inventory and if the quantity is produced in
short of demand, leads to shortage of products.

3. Right time:
Timless of delivery is one of the important parameter to judge the
effectiness of production department. So, the production department
has to make the optimal utilization of input resources to achieve its
objective.

4. Right manufacturing costs


Manufacturing costs are established before the product is actually
manufactured.
All atemps should be made to produce the products at pre-established
costs, so as to reduce the variation between actual and the standard
(pre-established) cost.

 SCOPE OF PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT

Production management concern with the conversion of inputs into


outputs, using physical resoruces, so as to provide the desired utilities
to the customer while meeting the other organizational objectives of
effectiveness, effiency and adoptability.

It distinguishes itself from other functions such as personnel,


marketing, finance, etc. by its primary concerc for conversion by
using phycical resources.

Following are the activities which are listed under production


management functions:
1. Location of facilities
2. Plant layouts
3. Product design
4. Process design
5. Porduction and planning control
6. Quality control
7. Materials management
8. Maintenance management.

 MATERIALS MANAGEMENT
Materials management is that aspect of management function which is
primarily concerned with the acquisition, control an duse of materials
needed and flow of goods and services connected with the production
process having some predetermined objectives in view.

 Inportant

Production/operations management is the process, which


combines and transforms various resoruces used in the
production/operations subsystem of the organization onto value added
product/services in a controlled manner as per policies of the
organization. Therefore, it is that part of the an organization, which is
concerned with the transformation of a range of inputs into the
required (products/services) having the requisite quality level.
The set of interrelated management activities, which are
involved in manufacturing certain products, is called as production
management. If the same concept is extended to services
management, then the corresponding set of management is called as
operations management.
