Consider the following cookie making process at a bakery store.1) Alice puts all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix them. 2)Bob spoons the cookie dough onto tray and puts tray into oven. 3)Cookies are baked in oven. Note: The oven is already programed tobake cookie for 20 minutes; Bob quickly pushes the Start buttonwhen after he puts tray into oven, and there is not any other ovenoperation needed during baking. 4) Cathy takes the cookies out oftray and pack them in to a bag. Answer question a) to f).
a) The task time of the cooking making process are as follows.Fill out the relevant resource for each task in the table.
Tasks Task Time Resource Relevant Resource
Put ingredients in bowl and mix them 5 min
Spoon dough to tray and put into oven 3 min
Bake cookies 20 min
Take cookie out of tray and pack to bag 4 min
b) Draw a process flow diagram of the cooking making process.Note: Put buffer between each two activities; the diagram shouldinclude the task description and resource.
c) Compute the capacity of each relevant resource.
d) Suppose there are infinite amount of ingredients availableand there is an infinite demand of cookies during the work hoursfor the cookie store. Also suppose there is no ingredients wasteduring the process. Identify the bottleneck of the process andCalculate the capacity of the cookie making process. Hint: identifythe bottleneck of the process.
e) Calculate the cycle time of the cookie making process.
f) Calculate the flow time of the cooking making process
