The consequences the other’s behaviour has on you • The four parts can go in any order.

  • Mapping the Stock and Flow Structure of Systems

    1 Assignment 2 1 Mapping the Stock and Flow Structure of Systems Due: Wednesday November 8, 2023 This is a group assignment. Please complete it with your group. This assignment provides you with the opportunity to practice with the structure and dynamics of stocks and flows. Stocks and flows are the building blocks from which every dynamic system is constructed. The ability to identify, map, and understand the dynamics of the networks of stocks and flows in a system isessential to understanding the processes of interest in any modeling effort. This assignment will focus on goal seeking processes. ? Be sure you have carefully read Ch. 6 and 7 of Business Dynamics before doing this assignment. ? Submitting your work: One member of your team should submit your team’s write up and model on Blackboard, as a single zip (or 7Z) file containing a word document and a Vensim mdl file. Make sure the write up lists the full names of all members of your group. 1 This assignment is modified from an assignment prepared by MIT System Dynamics Group faculty. MIT has not endorsed any changes or modifications to the original assignment. Terms of Use, visit: http://ocw.mit.edu/terms. 2 • Modeling Goal-Seeking Processes All goal-seeking processes consist of balancing (negative) feedback loops. In a balancing loop, the system state is compared to a goal, and the gap or discrepancy is assessed. Corrective actions respond to the sign and magnitude of the gap, bringing the state of the system in line with the goal. For example, consider programs designed to improve the quality of a process in a company. The process could be in manufacturing, administration, product development-–any activity within the organization. Improvement activity is iterative. Members of an improvement team identify sources of defects in a process, often ranking benefits of correcting them using a Pareto chart. They then design ways to eliminate the source of the defect and try experiments until a solution is found. They then move on to the next most critical source of defects. Quality professionals refer to this iterative cycle as the “Plan—Do—Check—Act” or “PDCA” cycle (also known as the Deming cycle, after the quality expert W. Edwards Deming). In the PDCA process, the improvement team: (1) plans an experiment to test an improvement idea, (2) does the experiment, (3) checks to see if it works, then (4) acts—either planning a new experiment if the first one failed or implementing the solution and then planning new experiments to eliminate other sources of defects. The team continues to cycle around the PDCA loop, successively addressing and correcting root causes of defects in the process. This learning loop is not unique to TQM: All learning and improvement programs, including Six Sigma, follow an iterative process similar to the PDCA cycle. The figure below shows data on defects from the wafer fabrication process of a mid-size semiconductor firm (from Figure 4-5 in Business Dynamics). The firm began its TQM program in 1987, when defects were running at a rate of roughly 1500 parts per million (ppm). After the implementation of TQM, the defect rate fell dramatically, until by 1991 defects seem to reach a new equilibrium close to 150 ppm—a spectacular factor-of-ten improvement. Note that the decline is rapid at first, then slows as the number of defects falls. 3 A. Create a model of the improvement process described above and compare its behavior to the data for the semiconductor firm. Once you have formulated your model, make sure the units of each equation are consistent. Hand in your final documented Vensim model file (.mdl file). • Follow the instructions below precisely. Do not add structure beyond that specified. a) The state of the system is the defect rate, measured in ppm. The defect rate in 1987 was 1500 ppm. • The defect rate is not a rate of flow, but a stock characterizing the state of the system—in this case, the ratio of the number of defective dies to the number produced. b) The defect rate decreases when the improvement team identifies and eliminates a root cause of defects. Denote this outflow the “Defect Elimination Rate.” c) The rate of defect elimination depends on the number of defects that can be eliminated by application of the improvement process and the average time required to eliminate defects. d) The number of defects that can be eliminated is the difference between the current defect rate and the theoretical minimum defect rate. The theoretical minimum rate of defect generation varies with the process you are modeling and how you define “defect.” For many processes, the theoretical minimum is zero (for example, the theoretical minimum rate of late deliveries is zero). For other processes, the theoretical minimum is greater than zero (for example, even under the best imaginable circumstances, the time required to build a house or the cycle time for semiconductor fabrication will be greater than zero). In this case, assume the theoretical minimum defect level is zero. e) The average time required to eliminate defects for this process in this company is estimated to be about 0.75 years (9 months). The average improvement time is a function of how much improvement can be achieved on average on each iteration of the PDCA cycle, and by the PDCA cycle time. The more improvement achieved each cycle, and the more cycles carried out each year, the shorter the average time required to eliminate defects will be. These parameters are determined by the complexity of the process and the time required to design and carry out experiments. In a semiconductor fab, the processes are moderately complex, and the time requiredto run experiments is determined by the time needed to run a wafer through the fabrication process and analyze the results. Data collected by the firm prior to the start of the TQM program suggested the 9-month time was reasonable. f) Equipment wear, changes in equipment, turnover of employees, and changes in the product mix can introduce new sources of defects. The defect introduction rate is estimated to be constant at 250 ppm per year. B. Run your model with the base case parameters, and hand in the plot. • Briefly describe the model’s behavior. • How well does your simulation match the historical data? Are the differences likely to be important if your goal is to understand the dynamics of process improvement and to design effective improvement programs? 4 • Does the stock of defects reach equilibrium after 9 months (the average defect elimination time)? Referring to the structures in your model, explain why or why not. C. Experiment with different values for the average defect elimination time. What role does the defect elimination time play in influencing the behavior of other variables? D. Explore the sensitivity of your model’s results to the choice of the time step or “dt” (for “delta time”). o Note: Before answering this question, read Appendix A in Business Dynamics. a) Change the time step for your model from 0.125 years to 0.0625 years. Do you see a substantial difference in the behavior? b) What happens when dt equals 0.5 years? Why does the model behave as it does? c) What happens when dt equals 1 year? Why does the simulation behave this way?

    Practical Assignment 2 (Must be typed) (Group Assignment)- Due second week of openingThere are marks for the write up and for presentation in classMr Moyo has been recently appointed work’s manager .he has heard rumours that some departments are overloaded with work than others .Every time he airs this subject at his weekly meetings he is assured by the supervisors that there are no unfair workloads. Mr Moyo decided to introduce a work distribution chart and instructs the supervisors to complete a daily production control reportsAfter 4 weeks to Mr Mayo’s surprise there are no discrepancies .Expecting for at least some mismatch between records he conducts some sport checksThe first check in one of the suspect section reveals that the fitter is not performing the task written up in the log .On acquiring it with him the fitter replies,“I was told to build up hours on this one, we do it all the time, it’s a system. “Similar cases are found out in other sectionsAs a group consider carefully the choice of action that Mr Moyo would take applying the proper management concepts.What are the deeper implications of this discovery to the organisation and how it can be prevented in future?

    Context and Conditions of Assessment
    This assessment will ensure that the elements, performance criteria, performance evidence and knowledge evidence required and conditions are adhered to demonstrate competency in this unit assessment task.
    Read the assessment carefully before commencing.
    This is an open book assessment and will be conducted at your designated campus / workshop/ specialised lab.
    Your Assessor will use the assessment criteria in this document and will provide feedback / comment.
    You must answer all the questions in the assessment tasks in your own words and own handwriting.
    Your Trainer / Assessor will inform you of the due date for this assessment task.
    Your Assessor will grade as either S – Satisfactory or NS – Not Satisfactory for the assessment. In all cases your Assessor will provide you with feedback.
    Only when all assessment tasks have been graded as S – Satisfactory you will be deemed C – Competent in the final result of the unit of competency; if you do not satisfactorily complete all the assessment tasks you will be deemed NYC – Not Yet Competent.
    Re-Assessment Conditions
    If the evidence is graded as NS – Not Satisfactory you will be required to re-submit the evidence. In this case, you will be provided with clear and constructive feedback based on the assessment decision so that they can improve your skills / knowledge prior to reassessment.
    Where a ‘NS – Not Satisfactory’ judgement is made, you will be given guidance on steps to take to improve your performance and provided the opportunity to resubmit evidence to demonstrate competence.
    The assessor will determine and discuss the reasons for NS – Not satisfactory on any of the criteria and will assess you through a different method of assessment e.g. verbal/oral questioning, problem-solving exercises.
    You will be notified between 10-30 working days of undertaking an assessment of their result in achieving competency.
    If a student does not complete the assessment, they should notify their trainer as to why they did not complete the assessment and if due to illness, a medical certificate must be produced.
    In the above scenario, student will be given an opportunity for reassessment within 5 working days with no reassessment fee charged.
    Students who are deemed to be Not Yet Competent (NYC) will be provided with information identifying the areas in which they failed to achieve competency. Students will then have the opportunity to repeat the assessment task within 5 working days of notification with no reassessment fee charged.
    If a student is deemed NYC in the reassessment or if the student did not approach the AIBT’s within five working days with a valid reason for not availing themselves of the reassessment opportunity, then those students will be given a final chance to re-sit the assessment and will be charged a reassessment fee as per AIBT rule.
    After this no further reassessment attempt will be provided to the student and the student will be required to repeat the whole unit with full fee for the unit. The student will be made aware of the impact of repeating the unit may have on their student visa.
    If a student is found to be cheating or plagiarising their assessment, a reassessment fee will be charged for reassessing the assessment within 5 working days.
    If the student is found to be plagiarising or cheating again after conclusion of the Intervention meeting with the Course Co-ordinator, the matter will be referred to the Academic Management Committee which may result in the suspension or cancellation of their enrolment.
    AIBT’s has intervention strategies, including student support services available to enable students to complete qualification in the expected time frame. Students at risk of not completing within this time frame are identified as early as possible and an intervention strategy is put in place.
    Evidence to be submitted by the student:
