7. MATERIALS MANAGEMENT
Materials management is that aspect of management function which is primarily concerned with
The acquisition, control and use of materials needed and flow of goods and services connected
With the production process having some predetermined objectives in view.
The main objectives of materials management are:
To minimize material cost.
To purchase, receive, transport and store materials efficiently and to reduce the related
cost.
To cut down costs through simplification, standardization, value analysis, import
substitution, etc.
To trace new sources of supply and to develop cordial relations with them in order to
Ensure continuous supply at reasonable rates.
To reduce investment tied in the inventories for use in other productive purposes and to
Develop high inventory turnover ratios.
8. MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT
In modern industry, equipment and machinery are a very important part of the total productive
Effort. Therefore, their idleness or downtime becomes are very expensive. Hence, it is very
Important that the plant machinery should be properly maintained.
The main objectives of maintenance management are:
1. To achieve minimum breakdown and to keep the plant in good working condition at the
Lowest possible cost.
2. To keep the machines and other facilities in such a condition that permits them to be used
At their optimal capacity without interruption.
3. To ensure the availability of the machines, buildings and services required by other sections
Of the factory for the performance of their functions at optimal return on investment.
A process is described as a set of steps that result in a specific outcome. It converts input into
output. Process planning is also called manufacturing planning, material processing, process
engineering, and machine routing.
Process planning determines how the product will be produced or service will be provided.
Process planning converts design information into the process steps and instructions to
powerfully and effectively manufacture products.
1. First define the outputs, and then look toward the inputs needed to achieve those outputs.
2. Describe the goals of the process, and assess them frequently to make sure they are still
appropriate. This would include specific measures like quality scores and turnaround
times.
