Historical Development of OM (Contd.)
1770 - 1800 : Series of events took place in UK 8 Great Inventions in UK, France, USA , mainly in Yarn Spinning Increase of UK colonies. Use of Machine Power facilitated gathering of workers in factories. Need to organize workers. Division of workers

Father of Sc. Management Each worker trained for suitable job (according to his skill, strength, learning ability ) Standard Output Norms set per worker. Instructions Card, Routing Sheets, Material Specs -All Standardized. Supervision Incentive for motivation & increasing

Historical Evolution of OM
Hawthorne Studies
Until 1920s – OM emphasised on role of Org. Structure, Specialization, Planning & Control. (But not on human dimension)
Late 1920s - Harvard Research Team (led by Elton Mayo) conducted studies and established relationship between behaviour of workers & their job environments.

What does Operations Manager Do?
Operations
Transformation Process
a function or system that transforms inputs into outputs of greater value
a series of activities along a value chain extending from supplier to endcustomer activities that do not add value are superfluous and should be eliminated

Operations Strategy
Earlier : Concentration on Finance & Marketing strategies (Unaware of Operations Mgmt. as a strategic function)
1969 : Prof. Wickham Skinner (Harvard) described
“A firm lacking proper Operations Strategies is like an anchored ship. Finance, design and marketing may set the radar and expect the ship to steam off , but with anchors set, the ship won’t move, or moves reluctantly,

Productivity Measurements and their Need Myth 1. - Higher production mean Higher Productivity Automobile Manufacturing Co. Yr. 2004 : Annual Production = 50,000 Cars Yr. 2005 : Annual Production = 55,000 Cars
This means Production Increase = 10%
But in 2004 : 50,000 Cars with Cap. Invest. of 500 Cr. 2005 : 55,000 Cars with Cap. Invest. of 550 Cr.
10/17/08
2004 Productivity = 100 Cars / Rs. 1 Cr. Invest. 2005 Productivity = 100 Cars / Rs. 1 Cr. Invest i.e. Productivity Increase = Nil

Myth 2 : Higher productivity mean working Harder. In fact adequate personal rest, contingency need to be provided to get continuous good quality of out put.
Myth 3 : Higher productivity means working faster. It may unnecessarily lead to errors, accidents and injuries.
