1.

A paper manufacturing organization:

The operations process here will have the entire supply chain comprising of sourcing to inventory management to production to finished goods storage to dispatch. The production process will be a major operations area that will involve issue of raw material from stock to the flow of this material through different processes at plant. There would be WIP/inventory at the end of each process step. Finally the end product will be packed as per specifications post inspection and stored for dispatch to customers.

There will be several decisions required to be taken here like what kind of raw material inventory to keep and the reorder points for the same, what capacity planning to be done depending on the demand, the processes/machines to be run as per the timelines and monthly targets defined, the internal mapping of manpower to processes, the output to be dispatched at the right time to the customers will all quality specifications met

One change here that we will see compared to a paper manufacturing organization is that even when the design is made, it can undergo iterations basis feedback received from customers.

The operations decisions will largely be on the expected timelines for creating a design, the manpower required to finish the project, the requirement for additional tools/software to aid in completion of work, etc.

Human resources may feel concerned about the existing manpower and the skills they possess whether adequate to make this move

Accounting will need to look at the costs in a different manner compared to what was being done in a batch process and align with Finance

Information systems will need an overhaul as there would be a major ERP change due to this
