105 hours. Thus‚ there are 2520(24 X 105) machine hours available per week. * There are 500 + stock keeping units (SKUs)‚ each requiring about 3 hours to set-up (costing Euro 500 per set up)‚ and the minimum run length is 20 hours. Thus‚ any batch takes at least 23 hours of machine time. Theoretically‚ the maximum number of SKUs per standard (no-overtime) week is thus 2520/23 = 110. * On average‚ each SKU could be made only after every 4.5 weeks (500/110 = 4.54) or even less frequently

The simulation forces you to think about the size of the bar and seating area‚ whether or not you will batch the patrons‚ how quickly you would like to get your patrons in and out of the restaurant‚ how much money you should spend on advertising and how to spend that money. I think this simulation was a great way to help one focus on how to optimize the factors involved in
