Please write a 4-6 page paper detailing the various aspects of the new venture's operations. Where necessary, the learning team will perform the required calculations for goods manufcaturing, or service provision (quality, durability, etc.)
When crafting the operations plan, there are a number of issues the team should be aware of, and may have to mitigate in the course of operating their small business. Topics to cover include:
- The operating cycle for the business- Seasonal, counter-cyclic, number of shifts, etc.
- Physical plant location, layout of plant, workflow through the plant, inventory facilities & equipment maintenance, etc.
- Supply Chain inputs like manufacturing resource planning (for product-oriented businesses) or enterprise resource planning (for service-oriented firms,) inventory control, inbound & outbound logistics, etc.
- Master scheduling of production and/or services;
- Constraints placed on workflow due to plant layout, MRP, and scheduling- This includes the risks and assumptions placed on operations from the supply chain.
The more of these questions the team can answer, the easier it will be for investors to understand the operations of the new venture.
