Productivity Management - Research



My Research paper - 2019

Proceedings of the 61st National Convention of Indian Institute of Industrial Engineering & 5th International Conference on Industrial Engineering (ICIE-2019), pp.240-244 

Evolution of Productivity Management- Present Scope, Opportunity and Challenges


K.V.S.S. Narayana Rao
Professor, National Institute of Industrial Engineering (NITIE), Mumbai


Abstract - Frederick Taylor started productivity management theory development with his 1895 paper on piece rate system, and developed it further in "shop management" and "scientific management" papers. His methods were adopted in industrial engineering and operations management disciplines. Productivity, efficiency improvement and cost reduction as objectives of industrial engineering were indicated by many authors and scholars. Scott Sink and David Sumanth came out with textbooks on productivity management. But a review of the curricula of industrial engineering and a survey reveal that productivity management is not yet an important area in teaching and practice. In this paper, an attempt is made to highlight the development of important productivity management theories and practices through literature review, curricula review, opinion of IE faculty and profit center managers. The current scope, opportunity and challenges for productivity management are brought out in the paper. 
Keywords - Productivity management, Productivity, Efficiency


2.4 Productivity Measurement and Productivity Management

Sumanth (1984) described productivity management as a formal process involving all levels of management and employees with ultimate objective of reducing the cost of the manufacturing, distributing, and selling of a product or service through an integration of the four phases of the productivity cycle, namely, productivity measurement, evaluation, planning and improvement. Productivity planning is based on productivity measurement and evaluation. Productivity evaluation determines the change in the total productivity between two successive periods and derives the possible ways in which the change has occurred. This is an after the fact analysis and provides the causes of productivity change. When an organization understands the productivity change methods and techniques that it had used for productivity improvement and inputs and outputs of productivity change projects, it can plan for productivity improvement in the future. The data base generated for potential of each productivity improvement way can be used as a framework for assessing new productivity improvement ways proposed by industrial engineers. Thus a productivity planning framework was presented by Sumanth. The productivity plan is part of productivity management and the other functions of management, namely organization, staffing/resourcing, directing and controlling have to be performed to achieve the productivity plans.  The execution part of productivity management is termed productivity improvement by Sumanth. He noted that managers are practising the management of productivity in an informal fashion. But, the need and scope for formal productivity management was highlighted. Productivity management can be assigned to a “director of productivity’ or “productivity coordinator” or “productivity manager.”

In regard to teaching of productivity management, Sumanth remarked that topics related to productivity improvement and management are covered in several schools around the world in informal fashion in courses on operations management, work study, motion and time study, etc. He gave the opinion that his book provides the basic support for formal productivity management education in industrial engineering programs and business administration programs. It seems that still in many curricula, formal productivity management is not covered and only some topics related to productivity improvement are being covered in various courses.


Scott Sink authored the book “Productivity Management: Planning, Measurement and Evaluation, Control and Improvement in 1985 (Sink, 1985). He also described the productivity management process with the starting point as productivity measurement. The steps in the productivity management process are given as: (1) measuring and evaluating productivity; (2) planning for control and improvement of productivity based on information provided by measurement and evaluation process; (3) making control and improvement interventions; and (4) measuring and evaluating the impact of these interventions. For productivity evaluation, standards are to be generated by one of the various methods as appropriate. The methods indicated include: 1. Estimation 2. Engineering approach 3. Historical information 4. Normative values. Both Sumanth (1984) and Sink (1985) indicated large number of productivity improvement methods and techniques which can be used for productivity improvement. Sink gave more focus on human aspects of productivity management. The issues discussed include delegation, decentralization, Theory Z, motivation, incentive systems, behaviour modification, goal setting, job design and redesign, employee involvement and performance/productivity action teams. 


3. IMPORTANCE OF PRODUCTIVITY AND PRODUCTIVITY MANAGEMENT IN INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING

The question whether productivity is an important objective of industrial engineering was assessed by looking at web pages of 73 industrial engineering programs ranked as top 75 courses in the USA by https://www.collegefactual.com. In 63 program descriptions, productivity was mentioned as an objective of interest in industrial engineering. 

3.1 Teaching of Productivity Management in IE Programs and Practice of Productivity Management 

Sumanth (1984) noted in his book that productivity issues are discussed in industrial engineering programs in various subjects. But he proposed a formal subject in industrial engineering programs that starts with productivity measurement, evaluate its improvement bases and uses that information to plan productivity improvement for future years. More authors have described functions of productivity management including organization, resource acquisition, directing and controlling. A study of program brochures and course descriptions of 73 institutes showed that productivity management as a separate subject is not being taught in IE programs. An attempt is made to contact faculty of these institutes connected to program coordination for exploring the relevance of productivity management to industrial engineering by asking the following questions through emails.
Is productivity management a relevant area of industrial engineering?
Was it tried as a subject in your institute and is it being taught presently?
Do you support the view that productivity management has not attained a significant position in IE curricula?
What needs to be done to promote productivity management in IE curricula as well as in IE professional practice?
28 responses have come. 16 responses have answers to some questions. All 16 agree that productivity management is a relevant area of industrial engineering. This is the general opinion that emerges from the email based survey carried out in this research endeavour. Regarding the second question, most of the responses state that it is covered in number of subjects. In one program, productivity improvement course covers management aspects also. In one program there was a course on productivity management earlier, but it is now discontinued. Thus, majority of the programs are still covering only some productivity management issues in multiple courses as stated by Sumanth (1984). Third question is regarding the importance attained by the area of productivity management. 11 responses are available. Three responses are emphatic that it has attained significance. Three responses indicate that it has not attained the significance. Five responses indicate that some significant role is given to productivity management.

Fourth question is concerned with suggestions to promote productivity management. 10 responses are available. The suggestions include better marketing of the course to institutions, industry demand for such a course in IE programs, and a requirement from the accreditation/certifying agencies for a course on productivity management.

Process Planning


Gideon Haveli wrote the book "Process and Operation Planning. This is the basic or first process design of a new product. The product design group may do periodically improvement of the product and process design group may modify the process to take care of product design modifications. On their own also, process design group may modify the current process to improve it further.

Industrial engineers have the responsibility to be present in the shop floor, observe the daily production data, daily cost data and technology developments to come out with process and operation changes that increase productivity and reduce costs. Improvement of products and processes based on development of productivity science was  shown to be economical and value adding by Taylor and Gilbreth and hence industrial engineering departments were set up. There is enough work for industrial engineers to be with the product and process throughout the product life cycle as counterparts to product and process designers on the shop floor and do design modifications in products and processes.

In industrial engineering methods, there is a systematic process analysis method (first proposed in a systematic way by Frank Gilbreth using process charts) and system of operation analysis described Maynard (practiced in Westinghouse).

Process Chart Method of Productivity Analysis 

Process Chart

In process chart proposed by him in 1921, Gilbreth tried to depict many activities in the process in a pictorial format. Maynard in 1939, said six activities and symbols are sufficient.  ASME in its standardization of process charts recommended five steps. 

Operation - Inspection - Transport - Temporary Delay - Permanent Storage. 

Using the above five steps, two charts became popular,

1. Operation process chart - showing operations and inspections
2. Flow process chart - It shows along with operation/inspection, the three more steps - transport, temporary delay and permanent storage.

The two process charts show operations involved in the processes. To improve each operation, the inputs and methods of each operation are to be studied in detail. Also operations contain work elements. Improvement requires improving each work element and each input into operation. We generally speak of material, machine, machine and method. Man does movements and motions. Industrial engineering later recognized the role of energy and information also in operations and processes. Therefore we can conceptualize material industrial engineering, machine effort industrial engineering, human effort industrial engineering, energy industrial engineering, information industrial engineering. Information is created by planning or production planning. Therefore as part of process and operation improvement, production planning aspects are also examined by industrial engineers.

Process Analysis

Make or Buy Analysis - At each process analysis related to a part, industrial engineers can generate alternatives for make or buy and take appropriate decision. They have to compare cost of internal manufacture with new buy alternatives explored. They can make internal manufacture analysis for parts being purchased from outside now.

The process charts are used for analyzing whether each operation in the process is necessary or not. In the next step, it is examined whether the operations can be combined. We can also examine whether the operation needs to be split into two and two separate machines are to be used. The sequence of operations can also be changed.  These decisions regarding operations are termed as process analysis. After these decisions are taken, the proposed operations are subjected to operation analysis. Shigeo Shingo explained that in operation analysis we examine the working of the machine and operator.

Maynard recommended that the right procedure for process improvement has to be first productivity analysis and engineering of operations and inspections. Then subsequently the necessary transport, and storage operations can be analysed. Even some temporary delays of material and components are part of a plan (due to batch quantity decisions) and not random occurrences according to the interpretation given by Shigeo Shingo.

Now we have the permission or leeway and also need to add more steps to the process chart. Information is an important to be added in a process chart. Also, the popularity of value stream mapping indicates the need for adding a data box after each row in a process chart. The term "total process chart" is already in use. So we can use the term to indicate steps we deem are important in our organization.


Operation Analysis


Maynard has given large number of questions which are to be asked and answered as part of operation analysis. In terms of process chart framework, we can regroup them into questions relevant to each step of the process flow chart. But first full list of questions given by Maynard are given and then subsequently  regrouping will be done in lessons discussing each step of the process chart and more questions will be added from the current literature. Readers can be indicate some more questions as well as modifications to the questions given in the list.

Each step of the process can be generally termed as operation (Shigeo Shingo). In this terminology, the first step is the processing step or value addition step, Remaining four may be necessary to complete the process of transferring the value added product or item to the customer. But still they are non-value adding items which are to be minimized to the extent possible rather than increasing them and incurring additional cost.

Machine Work Study

Questions on Machine, Equipment and  Tools



The tools  and equipment used to perform the operation needs to analysed logically. The following questions are the sort that will lead to suggested improvements:

8. Can the requirements be raised to improve quality without increasing cost?

9. Will lowering the requirements materially reduce costs?

10. Can the quality of the finished product be improved in any way even beyond present requirements?

Observe the relation between succeeding operations is being evaluated in this case also.

In value engineering analysis techniques, Miles has indicated that giving a cost estimate for each tolerance will bring out excess cost created by tolerances.

This article is an initial note to bring out the important contribution made to industrial engineering and methods productivity engineering by Maynard. The details will be covered in "Process Industrial Engineering Module" of the course. In this article a beginning is being made to start the detailed analysis.

I now feel production planning and control is a component of process chart analysis as far as process improvement is concerned. Industrial engineers have to improve production planning routines as part of process chart analysis. Such an emphasis is not there in IE curriculum, as process chart is method is taught in work study or time and motion study courses.

Data to be Collected for Process and Operation Productivity Analysis.


For each operation in the total process chart, there is likely to be direct equipment, indirect equipment (providing working conditions), material being processed, indirect material, direct operators, indirect operators, supervisors and managers, information, and energy. All resources are to be identified, quantity used in the operation and per unit of product are to be collected. The nature of work performed or utility of material is to be ascertained. In case of machines and operators, time being taken to do elements of operations and if standard times already exist have to be collected. Lot of data collection has to be occur before starting the process and operation analysis.

The detailed data related to operations analysis are entered into operation analysis sheets. Operation analysis sheet is a detailed sheet in comparison to the total process chart which is used at first to judge whether the operation is a required operation or not? That decision does not require the resources being used to do the operation. Hence resource use is not captured in process chart, but is captured in operation analysis sheet.

Productivity Engineering - Productivity analysis helps the industrial engineer to identify opportunities for improvement. Then the IE has to do engineering work to come out with new machine accessories, tools and cutting tools, jigs and fixtures etc. He can prescribe alternate machines within the shop or machines in vendor organizations.

Manufacturing Business Process Reengineering - Manufacturing Process Reengineering

A Redesign for Engineering

by Arnold O. Putnam

From the HBR Magazine (May 1985)

Investing in new technology will not alone ensure the competitiveness of U.S. industry. Things have to be run right, and processes must be efficient. Industry must do its job correctly and quickly. Despite the investment and attention it has recently given to manufacturing, American industry is still slower to market than some of its foreign competitors, and the final product often has many defects. Along the way, scrap, rework, and inefficient use of factory time make costs needlessly high.

Manufacturing process re-engineering,  is a traditional manufacturing/industrial engineering activity which has been actively pursued for the past half century and has even more universal appeal in the 1990’s. 

It is important to note that contemporary application of this traditional, process re-engineering activity should also be done in conjunction with a study of appropriate production/process control. Experience with four different companies which produce four vastly different product lines will be examined to emphasize the importance of process re-engineering for contemporary manufacturing systems.
