PRESENTATION ON PPC

PRODUCTION… It is the process of effective

planning and regulating the operations of that

section of enterprise which is responsible for the

actual transformation of material into finished

products

PLANNING… It can be defined as a

process of taking decisions for

future actions in order to achieve

pre-determined objectives by

optimum utilization of available

resources in a limited time

frame.

CONTROLLING… Is determining

what is being accomplished i.e.,

evaluating the performance and if

necessary applying corrective

measures so that the performance

takes place according to plans.

PRODUCTION PLANNING & CONTROL…

Production planning and control is the organization and planning of the manufacturing process.

It co-ordinates supply and movement of materials and labor, ensures economic and balanced utilization of machines and equipment as well as other activities related with production to achieve the desired manufacturing results in terms of quantity, quality, time and place.

STAGES IN PPC…

Planning : The choice from several alternatives of the best utilizing the

available resources to achieve the desired

objective .

Operations: Performance in accordance with details set out in production plan.

Control: The monitoring of performance through

a feed back by comparing the results achieved with planned

targets so that performance can be

improved. .

OBJECTIVES OF PPC… To deliver goods in required quantities to customers

in required delivery schedule. To ensure maximum utilization of all resources. To ensure production quality products. To minimize the product throughput time. To maintain optimum level inventory. To maintain flexibility in manufacturing operations. Coordinate between labor and machines and various

supporting departments.

LEVELS OF PPC…Strategic Planning(Long range): It is process of thinking though the organizations current mission and environment and setting a guide for future decisions and results. e.g. Technology forecasting and choice of appropriate technology for the long range time horizon.

Tactical Planning(Intermediate Range): It is done over an intermediate term or medium range time horizon by middle level management. These plans focus on aggregate products rather than individual products.

Operational Planning(Short Range ): It is done over a short range time span developed by junior level management. It is concern with utilization of existing facilities rather than creation of new facilities.

STAGES OR STEPS OF PPC

PRODUCTION PLANNING

ROUTINGSCHEDULING

ROUTING… Routing can be defined as the process of deciding

the path (route) of work and the sequence of operations

Determines ‘what’, ‘how much’, ‘with which’, ‘how’ and ‘where’ to produce.

The main objective of routing is to determine (fix) the best and cheapest sequence of operations and to ensure that this sequence is followed in the factory.

Gives a very systematic method of converting raw-materials into finished goods.

SCHEDULING… Scheduling is also done for materials, parts, machines.

Time element is given special importance in

scheduling. There are different types of schedules;

namely, Master schedule, Operation schedule and

Daily schedule.

Scheduling helps to make optimum use of time.

DISPATCHING… Dispatching means starting the process of production.

It is based on route-sheets and schedule sheets.

Under centralized dispatching, orders are issued

directly by a centralized authority.

Under decentralized dispatching, orders are issued by

the concerned department.

FOLLOW-UP… It is a controlling device.

It is concerned with evaluation of the results.

It measures the actual performance and compares it to

the expected performance.

Is performed by ‘expediters’ or ‘stock chasers’.

Removes these difficulties and allows a smooth

production

BENEFITS OF PPC…

PPC coordinates all the phases of production /

Operating system

An efficient plan results in higher quality ,better

utilization of resources, reduced inventories, better

customer services.

An efficient plan enable the firm to improve its sales

turnover , market share and profitability.

LIMITATIONS OF PPC

PPC function is based on certain assumptions or forecasts of customer’s demand, Plant capacity, availability of materials etc

Employee may resist change in production levels set as per production plans.

This process is time consuming when we need to carry out routing and scheduling function for large products.

This function become difficult when environmental factors changes rapidly.
