Question 숤 Answered step-by-step

Calculate the cycle time, cycle time efficiency, and cost of the
university admission process, assuming that:
The process starts when an online application is submitted.

It takes on average 2 weeks (after the online application is submitted) for the

documents to arrive to the students service by post.

The check for completeness of documents takes about 10 min. In 20% of the

cases, the completeness check reveals that some documents are missing. In this case, an email is sent to the student automatically
by the university admission management system based on the input provided by the international students officer during the
completeness check.

A student services officer spends on average 10 min to put the degrees and transcripts in an envelope and to send them to the
academic recognition agency. The time it takes to send the degrees and transcripts to the academic recognition agency and to
receive back a response is 2 weeks on average.

About 10% of applications are rejected after the academic recognition assess- ment.

The university pays a fee of €5 each time it requests the academic recognition agency to accept an application.

Checking the English language test results takes 1 day on average, but the officer who performs the check only spends 10 min on
average per check. This language test check is free.

About 10% of applications are rejected after the English language test.

It takes on average 2 weeks between the time students service sends the copy of an application to the committee members and the
moment the committee makes a decision (accept or reject). On average, the committee spends 1 h examining

each application.

It takes on average 2 days (after the decision is made by the academic committee)

for the students service to record the academic committee's decision in the university admission management system. Recording a
decision takes on average 2 min. Once a decision is recorded, a notification is automatically sent to the student.

The hourly cost of the officers at the international students office is € 50.

The hourly cost of the academic committee (as a whole) is € 200.

Average Cycle time of the process = 6 weeks 3 days and 92 minutes or 15932 minutes
 
Processing time = 4 weeks 92 minutes or 9692 minutes
 
Cycle time efficiency = 4 weeks 92 minutes / 6 weeks 3 days 92 minutes*100
 
                                     = (4*5*8*60 + 92) / (6*5*8*60 + 3*8*60 + 92) *100
 
                                     = 9692 minutes / 15932 minutes*100
 
                                     = 60.8333%

Step-by-step explanation

Formula To Note In the Course of Calculation

 
Cycle time = Average time between completion of units.
 
Process Cycle Efficiency = Value-Added Time / Cycle Time.
