An Experimental Investigation of Capacity Utilization in Manufacturing Industry
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 10
Abstract
In the modern day competitive world, every organization demands an effective utilization of capacity. Capacity Utilization means the maximum amount of output that can be produced in the short run of time. A lot of planning is necessary for the proper management of capacity. Capacity planning is one side of a coin and capacity management is the other. The capacity plans needs to be executed flawlessly, with unpleasant surprises avoided. A managerial problem is to match the capacity with the plans. Companies whether labour or machine intensive have a CI trend that remains fairly constant in that particular sector. For example a company will have a monthly cumulative CI trend that could be compared with any other company trend within the same market. The present paper makes an attempt to study the most important parameter of the organization i.e capacity utilization of a company.
