This case study is about Circuit Board Fabricators‚ Inc. which manufactures circuit boards for several companies like Apple Computer and Hewlett-Packard to name a few. Circuit Board Fabricators‚ Inc. plant was designed to produce 1000 boards per day but they cannot meet such production levels as their process engineer insists. On a good day‚ Circuit Board Fabricators‚ Inc. is able to produce around 700 boards. One will analyze and see how Circuit Board Fabricators‚ Inc. can meet the 1000 board requirements

Case: Circuit Board Fabricators‚ Inc. What type of process flow structure is CBF using? The company is using a batch shop process flow structure. CBF‚ Inc. bases its board fabrication process on the average job size or on its typical order. This means that the company proceeds with the manufacturing process in batches so as to meet the specific requirements per order. The typical contract that the company currently gets is 60 boards per order. However‚ due to persisting factory

The impact of the losses in the system is quite extensive. It is stated that 15% of the board are typically rejected during an early processing inspection along with an additional 5% rejected during the final testing. This results in a production order increase of 25%. 5.What recommendations would you make for a short-term solution to CBF’s
