Designing the
Product or Service
Designing the
Processes that
Produce the Product or
Service
Processes should be
designed so they can
create all products and
services which the
operation is likely to
introduce
Decisions taken during the design of the product or service will have an
impact on the process that produces them and vice versa

Littles Law
Throughput (TH) = Work in process (WIP) Cycle time (CT)
Cycle time =
2 minutes
WIP = 10
Throughput time = ?
Throughput time = 10 2 minutes
= 20 minutes
Also stated as:
The average number of customers in a stable
system (over some time interval) is equal to their average
arrival rate, multiplied by their average time in the system.

Littles Law
Throughput (TH) = Work in process (WIP) Cycle time (CT)
500 exam scripts need to be marked in 5 days (working 7 hours a day).
It takes 1 hour to mark a script. How many markers are needed?
Throughput time = 5 days 7 hours = 35 hours
35 hours = 500 scripts Cycle time
Cycle time =
35 hours
500 scripts
= 0.07 hours
