State Automobile License Renewal Case
According the case: Kristen’s Cookie Company (A), we can draw the Flow Process Chart, which could visualize the process of making a dozen of cookies.
Q1.
As we can see from this Gantt chart 1.1, the Rush Order Time is 26 minutes for one dozen size order. Chart1.1 A One Dozen Size Order

The Gantt chart 1.2 clearly show the Rush Order Time is 36 minutes for two dozen size order.

Chart1.2 A Two Dozen Size Order

According to this Gantt chart 1.3, the rush order time is 46 minutes for three dozen size order.

Chart1.3 A Three Dozen Size Order

Q2.
One dozen size order: In this situation, the bottleneck is “setting up the oven and baking”, which takes 10 minutes to finish this process. So, the Cycle Time (CT) is 10 minutes. The Kristen’s cookie company can finish the first dozen after 26 minutes, then Kristen and her roommate can complete each order per 10 minutes. 4 hours=240 minutes. (240-26)/10=21.4, and 21.4+1=22.4.
According to the equations above, the company could fill 22 orders every night.

Two dozen size order: In this situation, the CT becomes 20 minutes. The company finished the first order after 36 minutes, then they could complete each order in every 10 minutes. 4 hours=240 minutes. (240-36)/20=10.2, and 10.2+1=11.2.
According to the equations above the company could fulfill 11 orders every night.

Three dozen size order: In this situation, the CT becomes 30 minutes. The company finished the first order after 46 minutes, then they could complete each order in every 30 minutes. (240-46)/30=6.5, and 6.5+1=7.5
According to the equations above the company could fulfill 7 orders every night.
Because they have 14 minutes left after finishing all 7 orders of three dozen size, they could make a dozen cookie for a one dozen size order.

    * TAT (Turnaround time) measurement: We are not measuring correctly the TAT. In exhibit #3 shows that the TAT for a particular week is 8.2 days (0,6+3.4+2.0+2.2), but this means that the process is carried as a batch process, every process must be finished in order to go to the next one, and that is not the case (The possibility is very slim (5%)4) Other observation is that the 95% STC (Standard Completion Time) used is too conservative, using the Little’s law, we can estimate a theoretical lead time of 2,1 days ( Inventory (I) = 82 requests, Job’s arrival (W) = 39 request/day, TAT = I/W). The 2,1 days is far from the 6 used by the company, losing client in this way, but it shows that we can improve the TAT number if we redesign the way we measure and handle the TAT.…

    In order to calculate cycle time, we know that cycle time of a process is the cycle time of its bottleneck operation. In the current process we are using a batch size of 60 and we are provided with the cycle time of each operation in the case (Exhibit-3). We can get the cycle time of each operation by dividing the time taken to complete one batch by the number of batches simultaneously worked upon in each operation (Detailed explanation given in Exhibit-1). This will give us the cycle time in minutes per shirt.…
