Question

Navern Corporation manufactures and sells custom home elevators. From the time an order is placed until the time the elevator is installed in the customer’s home averages 43 days. This 43 days is spent as follows: Wait time 8 days Inspection time 4 days Process time 14 days Move time 14 days Queue time 3 days What is Navern's manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for its elevators?

Answer 1

Answer:

Cycle efficiency will be 32.55 %

Explanation:

We have given wait time = 8 days

inspection time = 4 days

Process time = 14 days

Move time = 14 days

And queue time = 3 days

So total time = 8+4+14+14+3 = 43 days

We have to find the cycle efficiency

We know that cycle efficiency is given by

Cycle efficiency $=\frac{Process\ time}{total\ time}=\frac{14}{43}=0.3255=32.55$ %
