Products.
- A substantial number of firms in the supply chain are involved in manufacturing prod- ucts
- Whereas almost all business firms are engaged in procurement and market distri- bution
operations, manufacturers add value by converting raw materials into consumer or industrial
products.
- They create value by producing and marketing product/service bundles to either end customers
or intermediate members of the supply chain
Example:
Retailers purchase a wide range of product from varied manufacturers to create an appealing assortment
for consumers.
The range of products a firm manufactures evolves from its technological capability and marketing
strategy
Sample : Nokia phone. What will happen if companies like Apple is hndi nag innovate ? We will stuck
with yesterday technology
2.) Market Opportunity – Market opportunity. There’s a lot of market opportunity now kasi
mdaming bagong tuklas na mga technology
accdg to Charles Darwin It is not the strongest of the species that survive but those that are
adaptable to change
While the products pro- duced are clearly different, the real differentiator between firms is found in
competen- cies related to knowledge, technology, process, and strategy
Slide 3: In terms of supply chain participation, the combination of products, services, capabilities, and
competen- cies represents a firm's value proposition and provides dimension to its supply chain
opportunities. A firm's manufacturing competency is based on brand power, volume, variety,
constraints, and leadtime requirements.

Slide 5: Volume
Manufacturing processes can be classified in terms of the relationship of cost per unit to volume of
output _ Economy of Scale
Sample:
Or $1.00/widget
On 1M cost includes $500,000 cost for Fixed cost (Admin, marketing , $5.00/widget)
Yung VC mo maiiba
= 500,000 + 1,000
= $1,500,000 Cost / 2M
2M= 0.75/Widget
- Economy of scale is extremely important in manufacturing situations involving high fixed cost
machinery to convert raw material into finished products
Slide 5:
Scope means that a manufacturing process can use varied combinations of ma- terials, equipment, and
labor to produce a variety of different products.
Sample:
An easy way to illustrate economy of scope is with rail transportation. A single train can carry both
passengers and freight more cheaply than having separate trains, one for passengers and another for
freight. In this case, joint production reduces total input costs
Slide 6:
- All manufacturing processes reflect a balance between economy of scale and economy of scope.
- Volume and variety drive logistical support requirements. Constraints inter- act with volume and
variety to create manufacturing plans
Capacity, as the name implies, is a measure of how much product can be pro- duced per unit of time
Theoretical Capacity – mostly inaanalyze ng mga engrs ang limits or maintenance level ng isang tool.
Halimbawa, ilang output lang ang marerelease ng tool na to before mag down time. Or Ilang hours
before need ng maintenance.
Most of the time, its contributor is Equipment capacity. IE or engineers needed to evaluate the
equipment first:
1.) Can the automatic equipment can support the planned cycle time?
2.) How close are we to our current machine capacity?
Basic point should be: kaylangan mag function ang equipment even may gngwang iba ang operator. And
once the operator comes back for next process, dapat hindi na sya maghhintay sa matapos ang process
ni machine.
Set up amount of time you prepare the production for manufacturing process.
Changeover, the amount of time you have to modify the production line for new variety of product.
Both these are non added value to manufacturing and should be minimized.
Leadtime – The actual time the customer requested the product up to the delivery
Strategic Alternatives
API, nagsstock na kme ng mga gaskets na ganito size kasi Repeat order lang sya this particular month. In
that way, hindi natetengga din ang production ng client and kapag oras na ng replenishment sa planta
ready to deliver na sya.
But if customize, mahirap magstcok kasi may tendency hindi sya mabenta. So make to stock is very risky
to manufacturers.
Company naming, design powerhouse kame so ang product naming hnd pare pareho depende sya sa
requirements ni customer.
