Abstract
In an effort to foster process improvement and ensure cost-wise support of the ongoing military operations throughout the world, Fleet Readiness Center Southwest (FRC SW) created its Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) as a vehicle to establish cost-wise readiness throughout its organization. The goal of this MBA project is to determine a reasonable range of production at Fleet Readiness Center Southwest (FRC SW) while attempting to maximize flexibility to support the fleet. The success of our project depended on to conducting capacity measurement analysis to support our findings and recommendations in assisting FRC SW. We used several modeling tools to assess capacity, which assisted in locating some of the constraints on the C2 production line at FRC SW. We found that the scope of the C2 production line requires further capacity analysis using tools beyond our project. We concluded our project with a recommendation for future research using modeling and simulation.
