Assignment
The lounge sets are a great success. In the future the company wants to produce 375,000 sets, that is, 75,000 of each of the types Modena, Monaco, Victoria, St. Tropez and Victoria Balcony in the existing production hall.
It is not clear if this future operation fits in this hall. A decision has to be made which products should be made on which machines and where subassembly points are realised. The company wants to know the investments needed and the yearly exploitation costs spent on assemblers and forklift drivers.
Aurora requires a plan - a report and Excel files- in which the choices of layout, working method and resulting costs are explained, and which can be checked.
