SUBJECT CODE: 8th Semester
CHAPTER-I
PRODUCTIVITY
1.1 Introduction
Production/Operation management is the process which combines and transforms various resources used in the production/operation subsystem of the organization into value added products/services in a controlled manner as per the policies of the organization.
Resources used in production/ operation subsystem
Value added products/services
Transform
(In controlled manner as
per the policies of the organization)
Production/Operation function:
Range of inputs
Required output (product/service)
(Having the requisite quality level)
The set of interrelated management activities which are involved in manufacturing certain products is called production management and for service management, then corresponding set of management activities is called as operation management.
Examples: (Products/goods)
Boiler with a specific capacity,
Constructing flats,
Car, bus, radio, television.
Examples: (Services)
Medical facilities,
Travel booking services.
In the process of managing various subsystems of the organization executives at different levels of the organization need to track several management decisions. The management decisions are Strategic, tactical and operational.
Strategic (Top level)
Defining goals Making policies
Tactical (Middle level)
Plant location
new product establishment Monitoring of budgets
Operational (Bottom level)
effective and efficient utilization
of resources
Productivity is a concept that has been at the forefront of human progress since time immemorial. It refers to the efficiency with which individuals, organizations, or societies utilize their resources to produce goods and services. Productivity is crucial for economic growth, as it directly impacts the overall output and standard of living.
One key aspect of productivity is time management. Effective allocation and utilization of time can significantly enhance productivity levels. By prioritizing tasks, setting deadlines, and avoiding distractions, individuals can optimize their work hours and accomplish more in less time.
Moreover, technology plays a vital role in enhancing productivity. The advent of computers, automation, and digital tools has revolutionized various industries by streamlining processes and reducing manual labor. These advancements have not only increased output but also improved accuracy and precision.
Furthermore, motivation is another critical factor influencing productivity. When individuals are driven by intrinsic or extrinsic factors such as personal satisfaction or rewards respectively, they tend to be more focused and dedicated towards their work. This leads to higher levels
