Synopsis:
This useful guide and reference explores the techniques and procedures for developing an efficient facility layout, and introduces some of the state-of-the-art tools involved, such as computer simulation. A “how-to,” systematic, and methodical approach leads the reader through the collection, analysis and development of information to produce a quality functional plant layout. Chapter topics include time study, process design, flow analysis techniques, activity relationship analysis, area allocation, and selling the layout. For experienced facilities planners, and individuals who possess the required skills to be one, who want to directly correlate the efficiency of a layout and material handling systems with the efficiency, productivity, and profitability of any given enterprise.
