WHAT IS INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING ?
British Standard Glossary (BSG) defines, “Work measurement is the application of techniques
designed to establish the time for a qualified worker to carry out a specific job at a defined
level of performance.”
Work Measurement is a term which covers several different ways of finding out how long a job
or part of a job should take to complete.
WM is the means of measuring the time taken in the performance of an operation or series of
operations in such a way that the ineffective time is shown up and can be separated out.
WM is also used to set standard times to carry out the work, so that any ineffective time is not
included later.
Work Measurement - Purpose & Benefits
1. Select: The work to be studied and determine the objectives of the study.
2. Record: All the relevant data relating to circumstances in which the work is being done.
3. Examine: The recorded data and the detailed breakdown to ensure the most effective methods and
motions are being used and unproductive elements are separated from productive elements.
4. Measure: The time required to complete each element using appropriate work measurement techniques
and calculate the time required to com pile the work cycle which is known as basic time.
5. Compile: The standard time for the operation or work cycle.
6. Define: Precisely the series of activities and method of operation for which the time has been compiled
and issue the time standards for the activities and methods specified.
Time Study - Equipments
Stop Watch
A small calculator
Measuring instruments such as measuring tape, steel rule, micrometer, spring balance etc.
Time Study - Procedure
The importance of time standards can be shown by the three statistics 60%, 85%, and 120% performance.
The time standard is one of the most important pieces of information produced in the manufacturing department. It is used to develop answers
for the following problems:
Observed time
Actual time taken to complete an element of work without stopping,
as measured by stop watch
Rating
Subjective assessment on a scale of 1-100, of worker efficiency
Basic Time: Example
Men Women
A Always Given
Basic Allowance 9% 11%
B Given When Necessary
Standing 2% 4%
Awkward position 2% 3%
Use of 2.5 kg force 0% 1%
Use of 10 kg force 3% 4%
Use of 20 kg force 10% 15%
Monotony 2% 1%
Process Allowances
Special allowances cover items which do not occur on each cycle such as:
start–up, shutdown, prayer, toilet, lunch, cleanup, etc.
These are prorated across the working day and added as a percentage to basic time, e.g.
Start-up = 10 minutes
Shut-down = 5 minutes
Total = 15 minutes
Work day = 480 minutes
Special allowance = (15x100)/480 = 3%
Worker’s Time Utilization
SMV defined as " Time taken by a standard worker to perform the task with pre-defined conditions"
SMV = BASIC TIME + (BASIC TIME × ALLOWANCE)
Suppose to complete an operation, an standard operator takes 1 minute.
We put 15% allowance(Men, M/c & Time)
SMV=1+(1×.15) Min
=(1+.15) Min
=1.15 Min
GMT SMV is the sum of SMV for all M/c & Manual operation to complete an item
RELATED TERMS TO SMV(Cont..)
Standard Operator : For a specific item & style, the potential operator who can give
maximum output with best quality & can improve productivity.
Lets see an Example for better understanding, Minimum • Suppose 100
Pcs Cutting
Input
I. Batsman faces 10 balls to score 5 Runs Input
Pre-defined Conditions : On time input arrival, single piece flow, running m/c conditions,
defined quality status etc. are called pre-defined conditions.
Basic Time : Actual time to complete an operation. In other word, basic time is the pick
& drop time including operation for quality output.
Basic Time= Pick time + Operation + Drop time;
Result , Input=Output with required quality
In a broad sense , a GMT SMV=Sum of all operation SMV, not SMV of GMT + allowance.
EFFICIENCY
Suppose any GMT item SMV is 5.5 (For any fixed style SMV always fixed)
We use 22 Manpower(Operator & Helper) to achieve 1500 Pcs for 10 hour working shift
EARNED MINUTE = 1500× 5.5 or 8250 Min
AVAILABLE MINUTE = 22× (10×60) or 13200 Min
EFFICIENCY = 8250 Min/13200 Min or 0.625
Efficiency is expressed as % ,Then EFFICIENCY =(0.625 ×100)% or 62.50%
Efficiency is a ratio , not a number.
Efficiency vary with LEAD TIME & QUANTITY . More Lead time & Quantity Increase
Efficiency , on the other hand less lead time tends us to use more MP or time to get
required output , so efficiency reduces.
LINE TARGET
i. Monthly total expenditure of your factory with factory rent, commercial cost, electricity bill, water bill,
transportation, repairing, worker & stuff wages etc. (8hrs/day) in Bangla taka.
Suppose -50,00,000/-tk
ii. Qty of running Machine of your factory of the following month (which total expenditure we have consider
here). Suppose -100 machines.
iii. Number of machine to complete the layout for the following Items (which CM we are calculating). Suppose-
25 machines.
iv. Production target/capacity of the following items, per hour from the existing layout, excluding alter & reject.
Suppose-200 pcs per hour.
v. Total working day of the followings month,(though the house rent, commercial expenses, machine
overhauling & some other cost remain same) Suppose-26 days.
COST OF MAKING (CM) RULE:
={(Monthly total expenditure of the following factory/ 26) / (Qty of running Machine of your factory of the
following month) X (Number of machine to complete the layout)} / [{(Production capacity per hr from the existing
layout, excluding alter & reject) X 8}] X 12 / (Dollar conversion rate)
= [{(50,00,000 / 26) / ( 100) X (25)} / {(200) X 8}] X 12 / 74
= [{192307.7 / (100) X (25) } / 1600] X 12 / 74
= (48,076.9 / 1600) X 12 / 74
= 30.048 X 12 / 74
= 360.58 / 74
= $4.873 / dozen (this is the making cost (12 pcs) of the following items)
However, normally at present (after starting the new salary scale) in Bangladesh we calculate the CM of any item
consider the overhead sewing machine cost 1200 tk to 1400 tk/day that means $16.216 to $18.92/per day. Above
is for a non-compliance factory.
For the a compliance factory the per day machine cost will be 1800 tk to 2100 tk
( $24.32 to $28.37)
SO, if the an items produce 1600 pcs per day using 25machines then the CM will be
= Overhead machine cost X require machine / produce quantity X 12 / $74
= 1400 X 25 / 1600 X 12 / 74
= $3.547/DOZ
CONVENTIONAL VS MODERN PROFIT THEORY
Conventional :
COST + PROFIT = PRICE
Modern :
PRICE – COST = PROFIT
