Strategy Tactics Mission Mission, Strategy, and Tactics : Mission, Strategy, and Tactics Mission The reason for existence for an organization Mission Statement A clear statement of purpose Strategy A plan for achieving organizational goals Tactics The actions taken to accomplish strategies Strategy Example : Strategy Example Rita is a high school student. She would like to have a career in business, have a good job, and earn enough income to live comfortably Mission: Live a good life Goal: Successful career, good income Strategy: Obtain a college education Tactics: Select a college and a major Operations: Register, buy books, take courses, study, graduate, get job Example 1 Planning and Decision Making : Planning and Decision Making Mission Goals Organizational strategy Functional strategies Finance Marketing Operations Tactics Tactics Tactics Finance operations Marketing operations Operations operations Figure 2-1 Operations Strategy : Operations Strategy The approach, consistent with the organization strategy, that is used to guide the operations function can have a major influence on the competitiveness of the organization Strategy Formulation : Strategy Formulation Distinctive Competencies The special attributes or abilities that give an organization a competitive edge. Environmental Scanning The considering of events and trends that present threats or opportunities for a company. Order Qualifiers Characteristics that customers perceive as minimum standards of acceptability Order Winners Characteristics of an organization’s goods or services that cause it to be perceived as better than the competition Examples of Distinctive Competencies : Examples of Distinctive Competencies Key External Factors : Economic conditions Political conditions Legal environment Technology Competition Markets Key External Factors Key Internal Factors : Human Resources Facilities and equipment Financial resources Customers Products and services Technology Suppliers Key Internal Factors New Strategies : New Strategies Quality-based strategies Focuses on quality in all phases of an organization Quality at the source Time-based strategies Focuses on reduction of time needed to accomplish tasks Time-based Strategies : Time-based Strategies Planning Processing On time! Designing Delivery Productivity : Productivity Partial measures output/(single input) Multi-factor measures output/(multiple inputs) Total measure output/(total inputs) Slide 17: Measures of Productivity Table 2-4 Slide 18: Examples of Partial Productivity Measures Table 2-5 Example : Example 10,000 Units Produced Cost of raw material: $5,000 Cost of purchased material: $25,000 500 labor hours Labor rate: $9/hr Sold for $10/unit What is the labor productivity? The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 1999 Example--Labor Productivity : 10,000 units/500hrs = 20 units/hour or we can arrive at a unitless figure (10,000 unit* $10/unit)/(500hrs* $9/hr) = 22.22 Can you think of any advantages or disadvantages of each approach? Example--Labor Productivity Example--Multifactor Productivity : Example--Multifactor Productivity MFP = Output Labor + Materials MFP = (10,000 units)*($10/unit) (500hr)*($9/hr) + ($5000) + ($25000) MFP = 2.90 Slide 22: Figure 2-2 Factors Affecting Productivity : Factors Affecting Productivity Factors Affecting Productivity : Standardization Use of Internet Computer viruses Searching for lost or misplaced items Scrap rates New workers Cuts in health benefits Factors Affecting Productivity Factors Affecting Productivity : Safety Shortage of IT workers Layoffs Labor turnover Design of the workspace Incentive plans that reward productivity Factors Affecting Productivity Negative Impacts Affecting Productivity in U.S. : Negative Impacts Affecting Productivity in U.S. Savings Rate Government Regulations Short-run Emphasis Service Demand Ways Productivity Can Be Improved : Ways Productivity Can Be Improved Develop productivity measures Determine critical (bottleneck) operations Develop methods for productivity improvements Establish reasonable goals Get management support Measure, reward and publicize improvements Don’t confuse productivity with efficiency Bottleneck Operation : Bottleneck Operation Figure 2-3 Improving Productivity : Improving Productivity …Then again, you can always follow the common misconception that the route to improving productivity is to get your employees to work harder... Production : Production Craft Production - Highly skilled workers use simple flexible tools to produce small quantities of customized goods. Mass Production - Lower-skilled workers use specialized machinery high volumes of standardized goods. Lean Production - Uses minimal amounts of resources high volume of high-quality goods.
