of goods or services. The productivity and quality involved in this transformation
process are critical for the organization’s ability to reach its objectives.

Defining Production
o Transformation of organizational resources into products
Organizational Resources
Assets available to generate profits
Example – raw materials, purchased parts, production workers,
and schedules
Transformation
Set of steps necessary to change the resources into products
Example – preparing customer orders, designing various
products, procuring raw materials, producing, assembling, and
warehousing products
Products
Various goods or services aimed at meeting human needs
Example – products appropriate for customer use
Productivity
o Relationship between total amount of goods or services being produced
(output) and organizational resources needed to produce them (inputs)
o Expressed in a mathematical equation as:
Productivity = Outputs/Inputs
o The higher the value of the ratio of outputs to inputs, the higher the productivity
of the operation
o Strategies to increase productivity might include:
Improving effectiveness of organizational workforce through training
