The student will review the topics in these readings and locate ONLY one major topic related to the analytical measurement tool, scheduling program, process control, eliminating waste, Toyota Production System, the development of POM systems, etc. Do not overthink this project. Simply locate a topic within the readings that is interesting and uses analytical processes in the OM/POM process at some point, even history.
Deliverables:
Produce a 5 -8 slide PowerPoint Presentation (plus cover and reference slides). Be sure the presentation has in-text citations (either on the slides or in the speaker notes), a cover slide, references slide, and sufficient detail to explain the concepts. Spell and Grammar check before submission.
The emphasis of this presentation is to present the student topic chosen, make an assertion with supporting reasons (subtopics 3-4), provide pro and con examples, and any other images, etc. that will make compelling arguments about the topic. Start with the readings, create questions, perform research, brainstorm topics and organization, select subtopics, and develop a solid, accurate, and professional presentation.
