質問 2:
Maxi Ltd is a medium-sized manufacturing organisation in the automotive industry that creates engines for cars. It has traditionally worked well with its suppliers, with strong relationships and regular meetings. There are currently around 15 suppliers who provide parts to Maxi Ltd.
Due to changing customer demands, Maxi Ltd will, from next month, modify the manufacturing of some of its products. Product X is being made more environmentally friendly, with output of CO2 being reduced by 32%. The product will take longer to produce, but there will be no additional cost to customers for this.
Maxi ltd are considering outsourcing the manufacturing of Product Y as it is not a product which is routinely ordered by customers. This will allow Maxi Ltd to focus on other products which generate higher revenues for the company. The concern within the Board of Directors is that if demand increases for this product, an outsourced company may not be able to cope with higher numbers of orders.
Product Z is an extremely popular item and oftentimes Maxi Ltd does not have the capacity to fulfil all orders. Consideration has been given to increasing the size of the factory, but this has been discarded as risky as demand is not guaranteed. The product has been available on the marketplace for a short amount of time and sales are continuing to increase, but the company believes this will soon plateau. To deal with current demand, the marketing team is working on campaigns to invite customers to make orders for this product at certain times of the year when product X is not being created in the factory.
This means resources can be reallocated to the creation of product Z.
Which of the following is thetrade-offin the modification of product X?
A. Environment
B. Quality
C. Flexibility
D. Speed
正解:D
