What Is Operations
Management?
Production is the creation of
goods and services
Operations management (OM) is
the set of activities that create
value in the form of goods and
services by transforming inputs
into outputs

Goods and Services
▶ Essential functions:
1. Marketing – generates demand
2. Production/operations – creates

Why Study OM?
1. OM is one of three major functions of any
organization, we want to study how people
organize themselves for productive
enterprise
2. We want (and need) to know how goods
and services are produced
3. We want to understand what operations
managers do
4. OM is such a costly part of an
organization

Differences Between Goods and
Services
TABLE 1.3
CHARACTERISTICS OF SERVICES CHARACTERISTICS OF GOODS
Intangible: Ride in an airline seat Tangible: The seat itself
Produced and consumed simultaneously: Beauty Product can usually be kept in inventory (beauty care
salon produces a haircut that is consumed as it is products)
produced
Unique: Your investments and medical care are Similar products produced (iPods)
unique
High customer interaction: Often what the customer Limited customer involvement in production
is paying for (consulting, education)
Inconsistent product definition: Auto Insurance Product standardized (iPhone)
changes with age and type of car
Often knowledge based: Legal, education, and Standard tangible product tends to make automation
medical services are hard to automate feasible
Services dispersed: Service may occur at retail store, Product typically produced at a fixed facility
local office, house call, or via internet.
Quality may be hard to evaluate: Consulting, Many aspects of quality for tangible products are easy
education, and medical services to evaluate (strength of a bolt)
Reselling is unusual: Musical concert or medical care Product often has some residual value

Productivity Challenge
Productivity is the ratio of outputs (goods and
services) divided by the inputs (resources
such as labor and capital)

The objective is to improve productivity!

Important Note!
Production is a measure of output only
and not a measure of efficiency

The Economic System
Inputs Transformation Outputs

Labor, The U.S. economic system Goods

capital, transforms inputs to outputs at and
management about an annual 2.5% increase services
in productivity per year. The
productivity increase is the
result of a mix of capital (38%
of 2.5%), labor (10% of 2.5%),
and management (52% of
2.5%).
