PROCESS PLANNING
Process planning involve the identification of the
step-by-step processes from beginning to end in
making the product or in providing the services
For manufacturing business, the processes
involved will be explained clearly such as the
activity involved, its duration and the equipment
used
For service business, the process planning will
explain all the steps that should be taken from
start to finish to provide the service(xnmpk, xgne
machine) to the customer

OPERATIONS LAYOUT
Illustrate the layout of the operations
Layout refers to the arrangement of machine,
equipment, workers and other facilities used in
the operations
The layout must be design in such a way that the
production of goods and services can be done
smoothly and efficiently
There are three types of layout:
o Layout based on process
o Layout based on product
o Layout based on marketing

Types of Layout
Layout based on product
This type of layout is suitable for a business that
has product focus or continuous flow production
The design of this layout is made according to the
sequence of activities to product the product
Example of a business that have this kind of layout
is a food processing factory

Layout based on process
This layout is suitable for a business that produce
several products using similar processes
This type of layout is design based on the similarity
of processes where by machine and equipment that
perform similar function will be grouped together
Example of business with this type of layout is a
steel workshop and a tailor store

THE OPERATIONS PLAN
PRODUCTION PLANNING
It is important to make sure that the business is
able to produce output or to provide services that
is enough to fulfill the expected market demand or
sales
This can be achieved by having a good production
planning
In production planning, the business will
determine how much output to produce for a
certain period of time such as in a day, a week or a
month
The business may need the information from the
marketing plan, e.g. average sales forecast

THE OPERATIONS PLAN
Example of calculation for output per day
Average sales forecast per month = RM 25,200.00
Price per unit = RM 15.00
Number of output per month = RM 25,200.00
RM 15.00
= 1,680 units
If the number of working days per month is 24 days
The amount of output to be produced per day is:
= 1,680 units
24 days
= 70 units per day

MATERIAL PLANNING
Material planning is done to determine the type
and amount of raw materials need for the
production
Material planning involved four steps:
o Identify and list down the raw materials required
o Prepare the Bills of Materials
o Calculate the quantity of raw material required
o Identify the suppliers of raw materials

THE OPERATIONS PLAN
Identify and list down the raw materials required
Usually in manufacturing business, the raw
materials used is easily identified
For example, to manufacture pencils, raw
materials needed are hollow wood, lead, eraser,
metal band, paint, glue and packaging box
In case of retail business, the raw materials is
known as goods. The business need to estimate the
amount of initial goods to be purchased to start
the business operation

THE OPERATIONS PLAN
Prepare the bills of materials
The bills of materials will contains a complete list
of materials, parts or components and the
amount needed to produce a unit of product
To prepare the bill of material, the entrepreneur
must understand the design of the product
This bill of material is important information for
purchasing activities

Choice of location is important because it will
affect:
•Sales revenue
•Business operation cost
•Long term investment

Factors that Influence the Choice of Location
1. MANUFACTURING ACTIVITY
– Priority should be given to the cost factors
– In manufacturing cost saving would contribute to
profit
2. SERVICE ACTIVITY
– In service priority should be given to distance from
market or customers.
– Distance from customers will influence sales revenue
– In service business cost saving may not contribute to
sales revenue
– Increase in revenue will contribute to increase in
profit

BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS HOURS**
Business hours refer to the time the business is
open to the customers
Operation hours refer to the hours the workers
have to work.
For manufacturing, usually the business will
operate on 8-hours per shift. Thus the
entrepreneur will only decide whether the business
will runs for one shift or more. This will depends
upon the planning for production

THE OPERATIONS PLAN
BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS HOURS (cont.)
For service business, the entrepreneur will has to
state the business hours in terms of days and hours
For example, a restaurant may open to the
customer from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day
However, the operations hours for the workers will
be different
The working hours may be from 5 a.m. to 12.a.m
The entrepreneur may have 2 shifts for the
workers; the first shift will starts from 5 a.m. to 3
p.m. and the second shift starts from 3p.m. to 12
a.m.

others and to the whole project
2. It identifies the precedence relationship
among activities
3. It encourages the setting of realistic time
and cost estimate for each activity
4. It helps make better use of people, money
and material by identifying critical
bottlenecks in the project
