A manufacturing company is modernizing its operations for which it is planning to upgrade a manual assembly operation with a robotic cell that will work around the clock. Based on similar prior experience, the robot cell vendor has cautioned the management that initially there will be "glitches" and they should brace themselves for this. Management's main concern is to maintain an average throughput of 10 parts per day. Based on the data given below, what would you recommend the management to do?

- Time required for the robot to complete an assembly is always exactly 100 minutes.

- Expected time between "glitches" 500 minutes.

- Expected time to fix a "glitch" is on average 5 minutes with a standard deviation of 3 minutes.

- The CV of job inter-arrival times into the system is 1.

-Clearly state any assumptions you make.
