Executive Summary Our team operated and managed the Littlefield Technologies facility over the span of 1268 simulated days. Our team finished the simulation in 3rd place‚ posting $2‚234‚639 in cash at the end of the game. We did intuitive analysis initially and came up the strategy at the beginning of the game. And then we applied the knowledge we learned in the class‚ did process analysis and modified our strategies according to the performance results dynamically. We have reinforced many of the

April 8‚ 2013 Group Report 1: Capacity Management The following is an account of our Littlefield Technologies simulation game. The account includes the decisions we made‚ the actions we took‚ and their impact on production and the bottom line. Day 53 Our first decision was to buy a 2nd machine at Station 1. We did not have any analysis or strategy at this point. Nonetheless‚ this turned out to be a wise investment‚ since Station 1 was in danger of becoming a bottleneck in production

In part A of the experiment the two values obtained for the specific heat capacity of the metal were about .0500 J/mol. This is a large deviation‚ with both of these values identifying very different metals. The average heat capacity identified the metal used as brass. The average heat capacity calculated was .3776 J/mol and the actual heat capacity of brass is .375 J/mol. The second run displayed the closest value to the actual value. A source of error that may have caused a large divide in the

Round 1 of Littlefield Technologies was quite different from round 2. We started the game with no real plan in mind unlike round 2 where we formulated multiple strategies throughout the duration of the game. Starting off we could right away see that an additional machine was required at station 2 to handle the dual processing load from station one and three. We purchased a machine for station 2 as soon as we gained control over the factory. Looking back now I can see that this could have been a risky

Author and Brief Background: Kip Adams‚ QDMA Director of Education & Outreach‚ northern U.S Date of Submission: June 27‚ 2009 Carrying Capacity When first inquiring into this article‚ it gave me the impression it was going to just define carrying capacity. After further looking into it‚ I then realized it relates carrying capacity to having a successful quality deer management area. The two concepts really go hand in hand. For

Littlefield Simulation Write-up December 7‚ 2011 Operations Management 502 Team 9 Littlefield Lab We began our analysis by searching for bottlenecks that existed in the current system. It was easily identified that major issues existed in the ordering process. Without calculations‚ you could tell the reorder point was too low since the historical plots showed inventory levels at zero for two or more days at a time. The number of jobs in customer orders showed correlating spikes at the same
