Description
Production is a key driver of organizational success. For many businesses, their strategy is built on the production function. Operational tasks must be executed precisely and efficiently to ensure long-term growth and sustainability.
In today’s competitive environment, organizations must operate with structure, discipline, and professionalism to maximize stakeholder value. Production or operations is central, often considered second only to marketing. While marketing generates demand by making commitments to customers, Production Management fulfills those commitments, highlighting its essential role in business performance.
A production manager is responsible for using resources effectively and efficiently. This requires careful planning at both strategic and operational levels, including decisions on manufacturing methods, production location, output quantity, storage needs, and related operational factors.
This course covers the key responsibilities of a production manager, including selecting the optimal manufacturing location and organizing personnel, equipment, and machinery to ensure an efficient workflow. It also addresses material management, ensuring timely sourcing and delivery of materials in the correct quantities, as well as effective storage and machine placement to achieve production goals.
Participants will learn models to minimize processing time and apply resource optimization techniques to reduce costs. The course emphasizes consistent product quality and introduces zero customer defection as a standard of excellence. Learners will also understand the importance of machine maintenance for sustaining quality and stable output. The program concludes with an overview of modern productivity concepts, including Just-in-Time (JIT) and robotic automation.
