CPIM- L. Execution and Control Exam well solved and verified What input to the manufacturing planning and control system can be found in the work center file ANS-Available facilities Monitors output, compares output with capacity plans, and takes corrective actions. ANS-Capacity control In the manufacturing planning and control (MPC) hierarchy, scheduling and capacity control are part of which category ANS-Production Activity Control (Execution and control) The index that shows the priority of an order relative to other orders in a work center ANS-Critical ratio If a critical ratio is greater than one, what does it mean ANS-The order is ahead of schedule The function of selecting and sequencing available jobs to be run at each work center is known as ANS-Dispatching If a critical ratio is zero or less, what does it mean ANS-The order is already late What form of scheduling is utilized when production is scheduled from the date the customer order is received ANS-Forward scheduling The theory of constraints (TOC) describes its scheduling system as Drum-Buffer-Rope. What does rope refer to ANS-The production pulled to the constraint for processing Increasing lead times, work in process, and material queues result from mismanaging what ANS-Input rate The theory of constraints (TOC) describes its scheduling system as Drum-Buffer-Rope. What does drum refer to ANS-The pace of production Theory of Constraints focuses on ANS-Identifying constraints, or bottlenecks, and removing them Earliest operation due date (ODD) is the dispatching rule that performs jobs according to operation due dates. ODD does what ANS-Takes into account due dates and processing times A company's entire process is only as fast as what ANS-Its bottleneck operation The theory of constraints (TOC) describes its scheduling system as Drum-Buffer-Rope. What does buffer refer to ANS-The time that inventory protects constraints Final assembly scheduling (FAS) occurs only ANS-After the customer order is received If a critical ratio is less than one, what does it mean ANS-The order is behind schedule
