● Location. Answer: The lowest initial setup costs for the operation.
● Location. Answer: Springfield, MO is the closest to the majority of
our potential customers, and the location has a larger capacity
production potential.
● Location. Answer: Springfield, MO.
● Layout. Answer: The assembly-line product layout is not typically
used for less-complex tasks, such as building a bumper, and it often
requires more workers since the typical assembly-line work flow moves

● Layout. Answer: If the workers are walking back and forth between
the machines and the center of the room, then that is quite a bit of time
for the workers to get side-tracked. The workers also might crowd each
other in the center of the room trying to assemble the pieces.
