Parallel Production Engineering

This is a document specifying the workflow/timing/layout ofthe production process to coordinate a modular build. This must be based on:

• Number of different modules
• Completion time of each module
• Module complexity
• Number of people doing the build
• Tools available for the build and their condition
• Supplies available for the build
• Skill level of participants
• Infrastructure and facility access
• Safety during the build process
• Optimal timing during the day
• External factors such as weather. For example, in rainy whether, fetching supplies from outside may be an issue.
• Energy level and morale of the build team
• Amount of leadership, guidance, and automation available

Format

This should be a slide presentation with printouts for the production manager. Presentation should depict:

• Which modules are being built when
• What tools/techniques are used
• Quality control steps required
• Adjustment of timing based on contingencies
• Treatment of individual modules and their assembly into a complete structure.
