Intended learning outcomes: Describe the order of the operations of a production order, operation time and operation load, the elements of interoperation time, administrative time, and transportation time.
Time management is the observation, control, and manipulation of time elements. Time elements are the duration of operations, interoperation times, and administration times.
In typical job shop production, the focus is on interoperation times, since they make up more than 80% of the total lead time. However, in line production, observation of the duration of the operations themselves is also of particular interest.
