 Industrial Engineering
Suppose you have a great idea for a
new product. Even better, suppose
people wanted to buy it.
First, congratulation!
 Industrial Engineering
Second??????????
How you are going to make it?
How many workers will you need?
How many items they can produce?
What kind of system will help them to
make more?
What kind of resources will they need to
make it?
How much should you keep on hand?
 Industrial Engineering
An INDUSTRIAL ENGINEER can help
you to answer these questions.
Or if you find answering these
questions challenging and you feel it
interesting to work on these
questions, then you will one to
become industrial engineer.
What Does An Industrial Engineer
Do????????
 What is Industrial
Engineering?
Electrical Engineering to engineer an
electrical product or system.
Computer Engineering to engineer a
computer or a system of networked
computers.
Industrial Engineering?
To engineer an industry?? No.
To engineer an industrial product or system
(efficiently and effectively): for manufactured
goods or services, originally
To engineer a product or system for industry,
the military, government, education, etc.
Efficiency and Quality Engineering!!
Industrial Engineers find..
A better way to make a product
faster and easier
A safer way
A less expensive way
Better way to solve the problem by
analysis and examination
 Industrial Engineers
utilize.

 Problems faced by an Industrial
Engineer
How many copies of the Times of
India news paper should the newsboy
keep on its shelf?
How many people need to do work at
the night shift at a cupcake factory in
order to supply the local chain of
grocery stores?
Will technology stocks rise or fall
over the next three months?
 As an Industrial engineer, you will draw
knowledge form mathematics, science,
psychology, business to answer these
questions.
Youll learn how to create factory layout,
factory schedules, determine delivery
routes, set up customer service systems,
transportation system, production
planning, forecasting, quality control and
much more.

 History of Industrial
Engineering
The most often quoted and
acknowledge investigator that have
lead to be discipline of industrial
engineering in present form was F.W.
Taylor, who took interest in human
aspects of production and
productivity.
History of Industrial Engineering
Period between 1882-1912 was the critical
period in the history of industrial engineering.
The important work done during this period
are:
Factory system and ownership- engineer and
manager concept.
Equal work, equal pay and incentive schemes.
Scheduling and Gnatt charts.
Cost control and accounting.
 History of Industrial
Engineering
The modern industrial engineering techniques
had their origin during the period between
1940-1946.
Predetermined Time Standards (PMTS), value
analysis and system analysis are some of
prominent works during this period.
Operations research techniques has brought a
revolution and changed and expended the
scope of industrial engineering activities.
The computers have added dimension to the
industrial engineering activities.

 Definition of Industrial
Engineering
Industrial engineering is concerned
with the design, improvement and
installation of integrated system
of men, machine and materials. It
draws upon specialized knowledge
and skills in mathematical,
physical sciences together with
the principles and methods of
engineering analysis and design
to specify, predict and evaluate the
The design or improvement of
a system of people, machines, infor-
mation, and money to achieve
some goal with efficiency, quality,
and safety.
 Objectives of industrial
engineering
To increase the productivity
To establish methods for improving
the operations and controlling the
production cost
To develop programs for reducing
those costs
To Improve the effective utilization of
resources
 Effective utilization of various
resources
Men, machine, material and
information are used in right way so
they form integrated combination to
met production/operations objective.
Scope of Industrial
Engineering
Design and improvement of
workplace, method, and
procedure
Design and improvement of products
and services
 Industrial Engineering and
Production Management
IE is closely related to production management. Many
topics found in IE are also found in production
management.
Focus of IE is on the design, analysis, planning and
control of productive system which includes both
production ad services while PM is focused on the
management of production system
IE do not operate the system they design
Industrial engineers are experts who perform the role of
staff function in the organization. Their role is to advise
the line managers
Production managers are directly responsible for the
shop floor operations of the system.
