Upon completion of this course, you will be able to understand:
- How to judge the performance of operations.
- A broad approach to assessing operations performance at a societal level that uses the ‘triple bottom line’ to judge an operation’s social, environmental and economic impact.
- How operations performance can be judged in terms of how it affects an organisation’s ability to achieve its overall strategy.
- The more directly operational level aspects of performance – quality, speed, dependability, flexibility and cost.
- Three related aspects of performance that are fundamental to understanding operations strategy: how the relative importance of different aspects of performance changes over time; how performance objectives trade off against each other (do improvements in some aspects of performance necessarily mean a reduction in the performance of others?); and how exceptional performance levels can be reached by focusing on a limited set of objectives and exploiting the trade-offs between objectives.
