planning2. Discuss ways of defining and measuring
capacity3. Describe the determinants of effective
capacity4. Discuss the major considerations related to
developing capacity alternatives5. Briefly describe approaches that are useful
for evaluating capacity alternatives

CapacityThe upper limit or ceiling on the load that an
operating unit can handleIt can be measured in terms of input or outputCapacity needs include

Key Questions: What kind of capacity is needed? How much in total to match demand? How much currently exists? How much in shortage or excess? When to change the capacity?
Related Questions: How much will it cost? What are the potential benefits and risks? Are there sustainability issues? Should capacity be changed all at once, or through
several smaller changes Can the supply chain handle the necessary changes?

Two useful definitions of capacity Design capacity
The maximum output rate or service capacity an operation, process, or facility is designed for
Effective capacityDesign capacity minus allowances such as personal
time and maintenance, and scrap
Unit of Measure for capacity Dollars Raw material in lbs. Yields (of output)
All are potentially problematic?

Service capacity planning can present a number of challenges related to:The need to be near customers
Convenience The inability to store services
Cannot store services for consumption laterThe degree of demand volatility
Volume and timing of demandTime required to service individual customers

Once capacity requirements are determined, the organization must decide whether to produce a good or service itself or outsource
Factors to consider: Available capacity Expertise Quality considerations The nature of demand Cost Risks

Things that can be done to enhance capacity management: Design flexibility into systems Take stage of life cycle into account Take a “big-picture” approach to capacity changes Prepare to deal with capacity “chunks” Attempt to smooth capacity requirements Identify the optimal operating level Choose a strategy if expansion is involved

Cost-volume analysisFocuses on the relationship between cost,
revenue, and volume of outputFixed Costs (FC)
tend to remain constant regardless of output volumeVariable Costs (VC)
vary directly with volume of outputVC = Quantity(Q) x variable cost per unit (v)
Total CostTC = FC + VC
Total Revenue (TR)TR = revenue per unit (R) x Q

BEPThe volume of output at which total cost and
total revenue are equalProfit (P) = TR – TC = R x Q – (FC +v x Q)
= Q(R – v) – FC
