Creating a Scheduled Customer Arrival Pattern Using Business Simulation Software

Today I will be discussing on how to create a scheduled customer arrival pattern in ProcessModel simulation software for use in process improvement processes. If you are looking for an arrival pattern where some of your entities will arrive on-time, some late and some not showing up at all, this is what you should be reading. To be true this article will help you ‘modify’ your current arrival pattern to all of the above rather than creating a new one and will help in fast tracking your work in the business simulation software.

Process Improvement Before an Assembly Line Was Physically Created

Working as a process improvement consultant I needed to recommend a production configuration for a low volume assembly line (500 to 700 units per month). The request seemed simple enough and I have configured many systems in the past, but all with little product variability. This assembly line was different. The product was a data storage unit that is used to house information captured from the internet. The product could be ordered with a wide range of configurations, which dramatically changed the assembly times and the quality acceptance rates. Standard tools I utilized in the past to calculate throughput and assignments of people were inadequate. I could make a guess, but that is all I would be doing.
