Objectives

The importance of services is remarkable in post-industrial societies. However, manufacturing companies are the pillars of national economies. In a global world, management and understanding of production and supply chains are at the heart of the expertise of a logistics engineer. In whichever position you are working in a production and supply chain, you must have a solid understanding of the fundamentals and requirements of production.

In this course you will learn
- to know the impact of production planning and control on production management
- understand the entities and correlations of your decisions
- understand the potential of modern management methods as factor of a productivity
- apply the relationship between product structures, item control analysis and production planning for sales, production control, and inventory management
- look for possible suppliers and partnerships
- manage risks, make decisions and work in a group

After completing the course, you will have wide understanding of the terminology of the topics covered by the course and the links between them. You will get a wide perspective into the design requirements and implementation of production, and the impact of different production strategies on customer relationship management. You will gain understanding about financial management and learn to manage production from that perspective as well.

Competences: business knowledge, engineering practice, communication and team-working.

Learning outcome:
You understand the terminology of technical production and production economics and the capabilities of different production systems. You will know the key concepts and theories related to production management.

Content

The course covers the following main themes:
- Production control and timing
- Item control and apply
- Material management in production network
- Productivity thinking and modern management methods
- Cost calculation of production and financial management of production company

Learning materials and recommended literature

Chapman S. The Fundamentals of Production Planning and Control
Additional readings will be informed in e-learning environment.

Teaching methods

This course consists of two sections: during the first half of the course we are concentrating on Production Logistics theory and on the second half students are working in teams on a demanding project work, which would be a business case on Production field. Furthermore, production management related simulation games will be played during lessons.

Exam dates and retake possibilities

Course is based on demanding project work and there is no individual exam

Alternative completion methods

The admission procedures are described in the degree rule and the study guide. The teacher of the course will give you more information on possible specific course practices.

Student workload

One credit corresponds to an average of 27 hours of work, which means that the load of five credits is approximately 135 hours.

Learning materials and recommended literature

Chapman S. The Fundamentals of Production Planning and Control, Uusi-Rauva ym. Teollisuustalous, harjoitustyöhön liittyvät varaosakuvat, varaosalistat Excel ja T-lomakkeet ja luentomateriaali.

Teaching methods

Opintojakson toteutus on kahtiajakoinen: osaamisen tueksi käydään läpi tuotannon johtamiseen liittyviä keskeisiä käsitteitä ja ilmiöitä. Keskeinen kokonaisuus on opintojaksoon liittyvä laaja harjoitustyö, jossa suunnitellaan erillisen toimeksiannon mukaisesti tuotantoyrityksen keskeiset toiminnot ml. sen käynnistämiseen ja tuotannon johtamiseen liittyvä talouden hallinta teknisten valintojen ja päätösten lisäksi.

Opintojaksolla ei ole erillistä perinteistä tenttiä. Varsinainen arviointi perustuu projektiraporttiin ja opiskelijoiden opintojakson lopussa palauttamaan työmääräarviolomakkeeseen, jossa on sekä itsearviokenttä että yleiset arviointikriteerit lueteltuna arvion tueksi.

Practical training and working life connections

Opintojakson aikana toteutetaan mahdollisuuksien mukaan yritysvierailu tuotantoyritykseen.

Exam dates and retake possibilities

Erillistä yksilötenttiä ei tässä opintojaksossa ole. Oppiminen ja osaaminen arvioidaan harjoitustyön avulla.

International connections

Harjoitustyön case pyrkii kansainvälisille markkinoille.

Alternative completion methods

Opintojakson toteutus perustuu merkittävissä määrin harjoitustyön tekemiseen ryhmätyönä. Muulla tavoin toteutettuna opintojakson tuottama osaaminen todennäköisesti jäisi vaillinaiseksi.

Student workload

Opintojakson laskennallinen kuormitus on 135h. Kirjallisuus ja luentomateriaali on tarkoitettu sekä uuden oppimiseen että sen soveltamiseen harjoitustyön tukena. Harjoitustyötä tehdään kurssin puolivälistä alkaen myös kontaktitunneilla, jolloin opettajan rooli muuttuu konsultoivaksi. Opiskelijat vastaavat toiminnastaan projektiryhmälleen, mikä edistää tiimityöskentelyn osaamisvalmiuksia.

Content scheduling

Opintojakso on aluksi teoriapainotteinen, minkä jälkeen keskitytään harjoitustyön tekemiseen projektiryhmittäin tietokoneluokassa. Erikseen sovitaan kokoonpanolabra, joka toteutetaan ryhmittäin. Loppuesitykset pidetään ryhmittäin erillisen aikataulun mukaisesti. Esityksiin osallistuvat kaikki, sekä esittävä ryhmä että muut opiskelijat.

Further information for students

Oppimisen arviointi on osaamistavoitteisiin pohjautuvaa, laadullista, kriteeriperusteista ja siinä opiskelijan itsearvioinnilla ryhmän arvion ohella on tärkeä rooli.

Harjoitustyön case pyrkii kansainvälisille markkinoille.

Alternative completion methods

Opintojakson toteutus perustuu merkittävissä määrin harjoitustyön tekemiseen ryhmätyönä. Muulla tavoin toteutettuna opintojakson tuottama osaaminen todennäköisesti jäisi vaillinaiseksi.

Student workload

Opintojakson laskennallinen kuormitus on 135h. Kirjallisuus ja luentomateriaali on tarkoitettu sekä uuden oppimiseen että sen soveltamiseen harjoitustyön tukena. Harjoitustyötä tehdään kurssin puolivälistä alkaen myös kontaktitunneilla, jolloin opettajan rooli muuttuu konsultoivaksi. Opiskelijat vastaavat toiminnastaan projektiryhmälleen, mikä edistää tiimityöskentelyn osaamisvalmiuksia.

Content scheduling

Opintojakso on aluksi teoriapainotteinen, minkä jälkeen keskitytään harjoitustyön tekemiseen projektiryhmittäin tietokoneluokassa. Erikseen sovitaan kokoonpanolabra, joka toteutetaan ryhmittäin. Loppuesitykset pidetään ryhmittäin erillisen aikataulun mukaisesti. Esityksiin osallistuvat kaikki, sekä esittävä ryhmä että muut opiskelijat.

Further information for students

Oppimisen arviointi on osaamistavoitteisiin pohjautuvaa, laadullista, kriteeriperusteista ja siinä opiskelijan itsearvioinnilla ryhmän arvion ohella on tärkeä rooli.

Prerequisites

Materials management. Production- and materials technology. Financial studies. Other engineering studies.

Objectives

The importance of services is remarkable in post-industrial societies. However, manufacturing companies are the pillars of national economies. In a global world, management and understanding of production and supply chains are at the heart of the expertise of a logistics engineer. In whichever position you are working in a production and supply chain, you must have a solid understanding of the fundamentals and requirements of production.

In this course you will learn
- to know the impact of production planning and control on production management
- understand the entities and correlations of your decisions
- understand the potential of modern management methods as factor of a productivity
- apply the relationship between product structures, item control analysis and production planning for sales, production control, and inventory management
- look for possible suppliers and partnerships
- manage risks, make decisions and work in a group

After completing the course, you will have wide understanding of the terminology of the topics covered by the course and the links between them. You will get a wide perspective into the design requirements and implementation of production, and the impact of different production strategies on customer relationship management. You will gain understanding about financial management and learn to manage production from that perspective as well.

Competences: business knowledge, engineering practice, communication and team-working.

Learning outcome:
You understand the terminology of technical production and production economics and the capabilities of different production systems. You will know the key concepts and theories related to production management.

Content

The course covers the following main themes:
- Production control and timing
- Item control and apply
- Material management in production network
- Productivity thinking and modern management methods
- Cost calculation of production and financial management of production company
