Question: Part A.1. Compose an email that summarizes the potential benefits of holding joint
planning meetings with Marketing and Finance.

Subject: Joint planning meetings with Marketing and Finance Department\

Good day,

The contents of this letter discuss the potential benefits of the aforementioned subject and the
inner workings of the Operations Department.

Considering the functions of the departments within a business, the Operations Department can
be distinguished as the skeletal frame of the organization. It spearheads the planning and
managing of production capacity, along with production equipment and facilities. Its center is
the achievement of the strategic goals of the company, along with the construction of the
vision and mission of the firm.

Marketing carries the responsibility for translating operational visions into plans that assess
consumer needs and find ways to satisfy them. Due to operations focuses itself on production
capabilities and capacity, it connects directly into discussions of and decisions of the marketing
about product direction.

Involvement of the operations with setting up equipment, managing inventory, and measuring
performance fits integrally with finance and accounting's focus on the bottom line. That same
intersection between strategy and fiscal policy also concerns itself with staffing and personnel
costs.

In the event the concerned departments conduct a joint planning meeting, further
understanding of the functions of the respective divisions and better performance is to be
expected.

Question: Part D.2. Compose an email to her on the benefits of remanufacturing.

To: Mary Barkley

Subject: Benefits of remanufacturing

Good day,

For you to grasp the subject to its full potential, remanufacturing is a process of recycling
products for reuse by restoring a used product to its original state to perform as well as new. The
aforementioned goods can also give you a higher profit margin than new goods by enabling you
to:

 market new product-service offerings

 embrace state-of-the-art manufacturing processes - learning new techniques, investing in
people, improving material traceability
 gather valuable data for product improvements in design and function and enhance
after-sales activities

Reducing your cost is also a factor to consider, by considering how your products are designed
and their environmental impacts at all stages of their life cycle, you can keep the cost of raw
materials, energy, and water to a minimum. You'll also save money by reducing the amount of
waste you have to dispose of.

It has a better safety record than the recycling industry, encourages problem-solving skills, is
more rewarding than production-line jobs, and uses traditional industry skills.

I hope this message finds you well.

Question: Part E.1. Compose an email to your boss, Al Thomas, outlining the general impact on
break-even quantities of an increase in the proportion of automation in a process.

Good day Sir. Thomas,

The summation of the overall impact on break-even quantities of an increase in the proportion of
automation in our Procurement processes is as follows.

My idea is that the Company should test and present a mechanized framework for a year and
check if the venture would accumulate great returns during that period. From the exploration
finished, I have certainty that is carrying out the suggestions, leaving on a computerization
project, the association should profit incredibly from it to improve.

Plus, the devices created probably might not be utilized internally consistently, which is a
significant supposition in the aforementioned break-even analysis. A mechanization cycle may
profit the clientele, too. Satisfied clients continually acquire altruism in an organization.

Kindly see the connected exploration proposals on the mechanization cycle for your reference.

Thank you for your utmost cooperation.
