Manufacturing
Some time in the 1990s, the service sector in the U.S. started to outpace the manufacturing sector
Deindustrialization in the developed world and the rise of manufacturing in the developing world followed
The rise of flexible production systems, automation/robotics, business process outsourcing & downsizing
Latest resurgence of manufacturing in the U.S. or re-shoring or nearshoring
As economy develops, manufacturing that is polluting the environment, uses a lot of manual labor, and adds little value will move to less developed countries while services at higher levels will increase. What are some of these manufacturing industries that are disappearing or have disappeared, and what services are being added in economies like the one in the U.S.?

Custom, or make-to-order (MTO), goods and services are designed to meet specific customers’ specifications then produced and delivered as one-of-a-kind or in small quantities.
Examples: ships, weddings, certain jewelry, estate plans, buildings, and surgery.
Option, or assemble-to-order (ATO), goods and services are configurations of standard parts, subassemblies, or services that can be selected by customers from a limited set.
Examples: Dell computers, Subway sandwiches, machine tools, and travel agent services.
Process Choice Decisions –
MTO and ATO
8
MTO and ATO are customized but MTO has more flexibility as everything is made from scratch whereas ATO is done with readily available parts. ATO is easier and faster to make at lower costs while presenting something that looks like every bit customized.
Standard, or make-to-stock (MTS), goods and services are made according to a fixed design, and the customer has no options from which to choose.
Examples are appliances, shoes, sporting goods, credit cards, online Web-based courses, and bus service.
Process Choice Decisions –
MTS

MTS is the most popular product/service out there, mass produced, inexpensive, and ready to be consumed.
Manufacturing Process
A sequence of operations and processes designed to create a specific product or service. The process of turning materials into a product

Projects and job shops are flexible and capable of customizing work for individual customers. They may consist of many smaller tasks and activities that must be coordinated and completed to finish on time and within budget.
Characteristics: One-of-a-kind, complex and large scale at times, wide variation in specs and tasks.
Examples: Legal service, construction, customer jewelry, consulting, surgery, hair cut, and software development.

Can you identify 3 different products which are manufactured using job production then explain the costs and benefits of it?
Assembly Lines are organized around a fixed sequence of activities and process steps to produce a limited variety of similar goods or services.
Characteristics: specialized equipment dedicated to producing large quantity of goods or services that are similar, using similar sequence of process steps.
Examples: Assembly lines that produce automobiles and appliances, production of insurance policies and checking account statements, and hospital laboratory work.
Manufacturing Processes

Distinguish between assembly line and continuous flow, explain the advantages and disadvantages of batch production.
A continuous flow process creates highly standardized goods or services, usually around the clock in very high volumes.
Characteristics: Very high volumes in a fixed processing sequence, high investment in system, 24-hour/7-day continuous operation, automated, dedicated to almost identical goods or services.
Examples: Chemical, gasoline, electricity, municipal water supply, steel factories.
