| Abstract: | This paper adapts the cost/utilization model both as a decision support tool and a control mechanism for use by top and middle management. The model assists in investment decision making, production line planning, capacity planning, constraint positioning, and locating of buffers. The model provides management with a tool which not only locates standard internal constraints (bottlenecks) but also finds intermittent bottlenecks. The model is simple and convenient to use, and can be expanded for application to various and differing environments, such as hospitals, administration, or research and development. |
