Indonesia is the number four world’s most populated country because Indonesia has a total population for about 250 million people.

  • Operation Management Is a Functional Field of Business with Clear Line Management Responsibilities
    7 CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Operations Management Operations Management is defined as the design, operation, and improvement of the systems that create and deliver the firm’s primary products and services. Like marketing and finance, operation management is a functional field of business with clear line management responsibilities. This point is important because operations management is frequently confused with operation research and management science and industrial engineering (Chase, 2001, pp.6-7). Operations management decisions at the strategic level impact the company’s long-range effectiveness in terms of how it can address its customer’s needs. Thus, for the firm to succeed, these decisions must be in alignment with the corporate strategy. Decisions made at the strategic level become the fixed conditions or operating constrains under which the term must operate in both the intermediate and short term. At the next level in the decision-making process, tactical planning primarily addresses how to efficiently schedule material and labor within the constraints of previously made strategic decisions. Issues on which Operation Management concentrates on this level include: How many workers do we need? When do we need them? Should we work overtime or put on a second shift? When should we have material delivered? Should we have a finished goods inventory? These tactical 8 decisions, in turn, become the operating constraints under which operational planning and control decisions are made (Chase, 2001, p8). 2.2 Achieving Competitive Advantage through Operations Competitive advantage implies the creation of a system that has a unique advantage over its competitors. The idea is to create customer value in an efficient and sustainable way.
