Case Study

                                          The Industrial Engineering Change

 

An industrial engineer, Jayesh was assigned to an electronic assembly department to devise methods of improvement. In one assembly operation he soon recognized that a new fixture might reduce labor cost by about 40%. He discussed the situation with the group leader Rakesh, and then with supervisor, Mukesh. Rakesh was indifferent, but Mukesh was interested in the offer and added certain suggestions to Jayesh’s idea.

Feeling that he had Mukesh’s approval, Jayesh had the fixture made. With the permission of Mukesh, he assigned an assembler (Radha) to try the fixture. She was cooperative and enthusiastic and on very first day exceeded the expected improvement of 40%. When Rakesh was shown the results at the end of the day, he claimed that this was one of the fastest workers in the department and that results could not be generalized for the whole department.

The next day, Jayesh asked Mukesh for another operator to help prove the fixture. At this point, Mukesh noted that the fixture did not include his idea fully. Jayesh explained that he had misunderstood but that he would include his suggestions fully in the next fixture built. Mukesh however continued to be negative about the fixture.

When Jayesh attempted to instruct the other assembler the way he had instructed Radha, her reaction was negative. In fact, when he stopped instructing her, it seemed that she deliberately decreased her speed of work as she used the fixture. She also made some negative comments about the fixture and asked Jayesh if he felt he deserved his pay check for this kind of effort. At the end of the day her productivity was 10% below normal production by the old method.

Q1. Do the SWOT analysis of the group in details

Q2. Review the activities of management for supporting the change. What suggestion you would give to Jayesh to implement this change–effort in organization.

 

Q3. Why do think Rakesh is indifferent towards Jayesh’s suggestion? Do differing attitudes play a role in it?
