I. PROBLEM STATEMENT
A. PROCESS PLANNING
The process used to manufacture the three product lines could
be replicated easily. All three processes were labor intensive,
with plastic parts molding being the only skilled position.
C. PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
Since the organization is labor-intensive, labor cost should be
taken into consideration. Also the availability of labor and how
people in a certain location act towards work. Where to get the
workers should be considered.
F. Imaginative Toys, on the other hand, may buy spare parts and
assemble new customized machineries for their toys, of course
with the help of their technicians. Since it is said that innovation
of a continuous kind is one of the key to their success, so why
not make the machines more specialized so it can render high
quality toys right away?
H. The company can offer willing current employees jobs when they
move to a certain location. This is a viable option since it can
save time and training costs because the employees are already
familiar with the process. In return, the company can offer
incentives and other benefits.
I. Since the job does not necessarily require a skilled position, the
company could train new employees for the job. In choosing the
location though, the company should consider the minimum
wage rates of the alternatives, if not the labor cost.
