3. Functions of POM
Being the component of the
organization, POM is concerned with
the organizational goal.
Production/operation manager seeks
to optimum utilization of the resources
(inputs).
The most functions of the POM is
decision making concerned with the
production function.

4. Functions of POM
Production/operation management is a
component of organization which
concerned with the creation of utility in
raw materials through conversion
process.
As a part of management, it has
following functions:
Planning:
Organizing:
Controlling:
Behaviour:

6. Contd…..
Functions of production
operation management can be
enclosed in a frame of general
management function.
PO managers are concerned
with planning, organizing, and
controlling the activities affect
human behaviour through
models.

7. Model BehaviourControlling Organizing Planning PLANNING
Activities that establishes a course of
action and guide future decision-
making is called planning.
POM defines the objectives for the POM
subsystem of the organization
It defines the policies, and procedures
for achieving the objectives.
This stage includes clarifying the role
and focus of POM in the organization’s
overall strategy.
It involves product planning, facility
designing and using the conversion
process.

8. Model BehaviourControlling Organizing Planning ORGANIZING
Activities that establishes a structure of
tasks and authority is called organizing.
POM establish a structure of roles and the
flow of information within the POM subsystem.
POM determine the activities required to
achieve the goals and assign authority and
responsibility for carrying them out.
It includes:
Job design
Work Measurement
Project Management

9. Model BehaviourControlling Organizing Planning CONTROLLING
Activities that assure the actual
performance in accordance with planned
performance is called Controlling.
To ensure that the plans for the POM
subsystems are accomplished, the PO
manager must exercise control by measuring
actual outputs and comparing them to planned
operations management.
Controlling costs, quality, and schedules are
the important functions for POM.
Material Control
Material requirement planning (MRP)

10. Model BehaviourControlling Organizing Planning BEHAVIOUR
Human aspect on the job is called
behaviour.
PO managers are concerned with how their
efforts to plan, organize, and control affect
human behaviour.
They also want to know how the behaviour
of subordinates can affect management’s
planning, organizing, and controlling
actions.
The behaviour is affected by the
leadership, motivation, communication, inte
r-intra personnel relationship and their
attitudes.

11. Model BehaviourControlling Organizing Planning
MODELS
The techniques which are used for problem solving
is called Models.
As a process of plan, organize, and control the
conversion process, PO manager encounter many
problems and must make many decisions.
S/he can simplify their difficulties using models.
Controling
The models are:
Aggregate planning models for examining how
best to use existing capacity in short-term.
Break even analysis to identify break even
volumes.
Linear programming and computer simulation for
capacity utilization.
Decision tree analysis for long-term capacity
problem of facility expansion.
