  2. Process Flow Measures • The essence of process flow including : • Flow time ; indicates the time needed to convert inputs into outputs and includes any time spent by a flow unit waiting for processing activities to be performed. • Flow rate ; the number of flow units that flow through a specific point in the process per unit of time. Ri(t) and Ro(t) • Inventory ; is the total number of flow units present within process boundaries.

  4. Illustration • The inflow rate of passengers at a security checkpoint at Vancouver Airport changes over time. Recall that for each of the three flights, about half the 200 passengers for each flight arrive between 50 and 30 minutes before flight departure. So far for each of the three flights departing at 10 a.m. • About 100 passengers arrive between 9:10 and 9:30 a.m., a 20-minute interval. This means that a total of 300 passengers arrive during this time period for three flights, giving an inflow rate of roughly 15 passengers per minute. The remaining 300 passengers for the three flights arrive between 8:40 and 9:10 a.m. (about 80 to 50 minute before departure) and between 9.30 and 9:40 a.m. (about 30 to 20 minute before departure).

  5. ... • That is the remaining 300 passengers arrive during a total time period of 40 minutes, giving an inflow rate of 7.5 passengers per minute, which is half the inflow rate during the peak time period from 9:10 to 9:30 a.m. The outflow rate of the checkpoint, however, is limited by the X-ray scanner, which cannot process more than 18 bags per minute or, with an average of 1.5 bags per passenger, 12 passenger per minute.

  6. For the case of service facility at Vancouver airport … • Outflow rate capacity 12 passengers/min. • At peak period 9:10 to 9:30 a.m., the inflow rate 15 passengers/min. so that a queue (inventory) starts building at R = 3 passengers/min. • At 9:30, the inventory has grown = R x (9:30-9:10) = 60 passengers. • After 9:30 a.m. X-ray scanner keeps processing at full rate 12 passengers/min., while the inflow rate 7.5 passengers/min., so that the passenger queue is being depleted at a rate of 4.5 passengers/min. • Thus, 60-passenger queue is eliminated after 60/4.5 = 13.33 minutes, or at 9:43:20 the queue is empty again. • .Example video

  7. Flow time, flow rate, and inventory dynamics • The inventory includes all flow units within process boundaries (in – on – off process) valid for manufacturing, services, financial, or even information process. • The inventory dynamics are driven by the difference between inflow and outflow rates. • The instantaneous inventory accumulation (buildup) rate, R(t)as the difference between instantaneous inflow rate and outflow rate. R(t) = Ri(t) – Ro(t) • Within a time interval (t1, t2), inventory change = buildup rate x length of time interval. • For R constant = I(t2) – I(t1) = R(t) x (t2-t1)

  8. Throughput in stable process • A stable process is one, in which in the long run, the average inflow rate is the same as the average outflow rate. (ex : inflow 600 passenger per hour; outflow 12 passengers per minute or equal 720 passengers per hour; means that in the long rung the average outflow rate is 600 passengers per hour) • Average flow rate or throughput is the average number of flow units that flow through (into and out of) the process per unit of time. Denoted as R.

  9. ... • For the case of Vancouver Airport, it is known that from 8:40 to 9:10 a.m., the inventory or queue is zero. From 9:10 through 9:43 a.m., the inventory builds up linearly to a maximum size of 60. Thus the average inventory during that period is 60/2 = 30. • Finally, the inventory is zero again is from 9:43 to 10:10 a.m., when the cycle repeats with the next inventory buildup. Thus, the average queue size is the time-weighted average: I = (33 min x 30 passengers + 27 min x 0 passengers)/60 min = 17.5 passengers • Further, average inventory over time is denoted by I.

  10. …stable process • Average flow time (T) is as the average (of the flow times) across all flow units that exit the process during a specific span of time. • Little`s Law : average inventory equals throughput times average flow time, or I = R x T. • To determine the average time spent by a passenger in a checkpoint queue, is that T = I/R = 17.5 passengers/10 passengers per minute = = 1.75 minutes pax/minute where R = 600 passengers per hour or 10 passengers per minute.

  11. Another application… • Process I : HOM financial services provides financing to qualified creditors. It receives about 1,000 applications per month and makes accept/reject decisions based on an extensive review of each applications. • Assume a 30-day working month. • Up to present, HFS process each application individually. On average, 20% of all applications received approval. • Based on an audit, it revealed that HFS on average had about 500 applications in process at various stages of the approval/rejection procedure. • In response to customer complaints about the time taken to process each application, HFS called for a measure to improve its performance.

  12. … It was suggested that (Process II) : • An Initial Review Team should be set up to preprocess according to strict but fairly mechanical guidelines. • Each application would fall into one of three categories: A (looks excellent), B (needs more detailed evaluation), and C (reject summarily). A and B applications would be forwarded to different specialist subgroups. • Each subgroup would then evaluate the applications in its domain and make accept/reject decisions.

  13. ... Process II was implemented on an experimental basis. • HFS found that on average, 25% of all applications were A category, 25% B, and 50% C. Typically about 70% of all A applications and 10% of all B applications were approved on review. (Recall that all C applications were rejected). It was also noticed that 200 applications were with the Initial Review Team undergoing preprocessing. Just 25, however, were with the Subgroup A Team undergoing the next stage of processing and about 150 with the Subgroup B Team. • Under Process I : Throughput R = 1,000 applications/month Average inventory I = 500 applications Average flow time T = I/R = 0.5 months = 15 days.

  14. Under Process II Subgroup A Review II = 25 Accepted 200/month 70% 10% 25% Initial Review IIR = 200 Subgroup B Review II = 150 1000/month 25% 30% 50% 90% Rejected 800/month

  15. Under Process II • Throughput R = 1000 applications/month • Average inventory I = 200 + 150 + 25 = 375 applications. • Average flow time T = I/R = 0.375 months = 11.25 days. • Detailed analysis and calculate the average flow time of each type group under process II can be done. As seen on the above figure, there are 200 applications with the Initial Review Team (average inventory). The performance is that Throughput = 1000 applications/month and Average inventory = 200 applications then Average flow time TIR= IIR/RIR = 200/1000 months = 0.2 months = 6 days

  16. … • For subgroup A process, there are 25 applications. Since 25% of all incoming applications are categorized as type A, on average, 250 of the 1000 applications received per month are categorized as type A. Therefore, Throughput RA = 250 applications/month Average inventory IA = 25 applications then Average flow time TA= IA/RA = 25/250 months = 0.1 months = 3 days • Similarly, for subgroup B process, there are 25% of incoming applications are 250, and 150 applications with subgroup B. That is, Throughput R B = 250 applications/month Average inventory IB = 150 applications then Average flow time TA= IA/RA = 150/250 months = 0.6 months = 18 days • And for subgroup C process, since this application type leave immediately means that the average inventory are 0.

  17. … • Recall that both subgroup process must through Initial Review Team process first which is taking 6 days process, thus the average flow time of each type application under process II: • Type A applications spend, on average, 9 days in the process. • Type B applications spend, on average, 24 days in the process. • Type C applications spend, on average, 6 days in the process. • To find the average flow time across all applications under process II it using the weighted average across three application types.

  18. … • Under process II also, 70% of type A applications (175 out of 250 per month, on average) are approved, as are 10% of type B applications (25 out of 250 per month, on average). Thus the aggregate rate at which all applications are approved equals 175+25 = 200 applications per month. Hence, average flow time for approved applications can be calculated by:

  19. … • Similarly, average flow time for rejected applications can be calculated by:

  24. Cash to cash cycle performance • Average lag = 15 + 6 =21 weeks is the cost-to-cash cycle (ROE) • Investment in the form of purchased parts and raw materials after 6.9 weeks, cash-to-cash cycle(Net Trade Cycle) = 21 – 6.9 = 14.1 weeks

  25. Targeting improvement • The throughput rate through fabrication : $50.1 million/year in raw materials + $60.2 million in labor and overhead = $110.3 million/year • The throughput through assembly area : $110.3 million/years in roofs + $ 40.2 million/year in bases + $ 25.3 million/year in labor & overhead = $175.8 million
