National Scan, Inc., sells ratio frequency inventory tags. Monthly sales for a 6-month period were as follows: Month: Sales Feb 65 Mar 66 Apr 66 May 71 Jun 72 Jul 72 2.
And the steel deliveries are in a three-day window. Moreover, Kenco implements the cycle counting where 100 items making up 80% of the sales volume are counted every four weeks. What is left in inventory in 12 months is discounted to sell or scrapped. 5) Describe Kenco’s CI system and compare this process change using traditional budgeting Kenco CI system is following four steps: _ Activities for improvement must be selected _ Root causes for the activities performance as it exists must be determined _Modifications must be discovered and implemented _The impact of the change must be assessed. Traditional budgeting always plans and setting a budget for revenues and expenses, and it only focuses on short-term but not planning on long-term vision.
I am concerned by the large leap in total expenses for the year 2012 and I see that although the majority of these totals have dropped, the ones that have increased have been by large amounts in the areas of wages and salary, maintenance and depreciation. These are all costs that are likely to increase again in the following year. I would be questioning whether the £60,000 rise in wages bill was due to recruitment of more staff or was it a general pay rise that will be repeated the following year? The second point I would look further into is how did the maintenance cost double? Again, is this a one off or a trend that is set to continue?

In regards to the daily work preparation process, that is the focus of this study brief, the bottleneck can be identified as the snooze. The wake-up time is set at 03:00 daily, however, the snooze can vary anywhere from 0 to 25mins, which impacts the rest of the work preparation process and further sets back the ultimate time the residence is vacated and the arrival time at work. Moving on to apply Goldratt’s theory of constraints, which is discussed in chapter 18; Synchronous Manufacturing and Theory of Constraints, ( Chase, Jacobs & Aquilano, 2006), to identify and overcome the bottleneck within the daily work preparation process, it can be genuinely concluded that the constraint can be identified as the time spent snoozing after the initial wake up time of 03:00. One way to exploit this constraint within the process would be to set the wake up time back to compensate for longer snoozing time.
