Capacity = organization’s ability to provide customer with goods and services they demand
Estimating capacity System capacity vs. department capacity Capacity decisions

Expanded DefinitionExpanded Definitionof Capacityof Capacity
1. Managers need a yardstick to estimate capacity
2. Capacity = (max. rate of production/hour) X (number of hours)
3. Number of hours worked is affected: by overtime, second shift, preventive maintenance, and equipment failure
4. Rate of production is affected by: number of people assigned, equipment used and quality of materials
5. Capacity is a function of management decisions and ingenuity

Estimating Capacity Factors that Estimating Capacity Factors that Affect Production RateAffect Production Rate
1. Change mix of products
2. Add people to production process
3. Increase motivation of production employees
4. Increase operating rate of machine
5. Improve quality of raw materials and work in process
6. Increase product yield

The System capacity can be increased by 1,000 gallonsper hour if the capacity of department H is increased by 333 gallons per hour. If it happens, The bottleneck becomes department G.
