AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT
THE STUDENT ACQUIRES THE ABILITY TO INDEPENDENTLY FORMULATE A LAYOUT OF AN INDUSTRIAL PLANT AND APPLY APPROPRIATE MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES IN THE PRESENCE OF THE PROBLEMS STUDIED.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS.
THE STUDENT ACQUIRES THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY ON TOPICS RELATED TO INDUSTRIAL PLANT LAYOUT AND MAJOR MANAGEMENT ISSUES.

LEARNING SKILLS.
THE STUDENT ACQUIRES THE ABILITY TO INDEPENDENTLY LEARN MORE IN-DEPTH AND SPECIFIC SKILLS IN THE FIELD OF INDUSTRIAL PLANT DESIGN AND MANAGEMENT.

	Prerequisites
	IN ORDER TO BENEFIT FROM THE COURSE TOPICS, PRELIMINARY KNOWLEDGE, ABOUT THE MAIN MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES USED IN THE MANUFACTURING SECTOR AND THE MECHANICAL DESIGN, IS NEEDED. IN ADDITION, THE KNOWLEDGE OF BASIC COMPUTER SKILLS IS REQUIRED, SUCH AS FLOW DIAGRAMS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF SIMPLE PROCEDURES.

	Contents
	Classification of industrial plants and processes (10h T). Continuous and manufacturing processes, with technical fixed cycle or not, technology and service facilities, rigid and flexible automation. Characteristic parameters of the production systems (10h T + 4h E): capacity, hourly production, efficiency, vertical and horizontal integration, break even point, elasticity, versatility and flexibility, ect. Layout Study (12h T + 8h E): layout with fixed location, flow-shop, job-shop, and machining cells. Sizing of plant resources in the different configurations (8h T + 4h E): machinery, service plants, warehouses, internal transport systems. Analysis of the Convenience of Industrial Investment (4h T): payback period, net present value. Production system management (10h T + 4h E): potentiality, ervice level, yield. Montecarlo Simulation. Industrial accounting and product cost. Material management (24h T + 6h E): lead time, materials with dependent and independent demand, bill of material, ABC analysis, economic order quantity and economic production quantity, security stocks, supplier choice, major procedures at active and passive cycle. Human resource management (6h T + 4h E): time-and-method procedure, flowcharts, two-hand diagrams, inductive and deductive methods, standard time, man-machine diagram, worker multiple management, principles of ergonomics.

	Teaching Methods
	The course involves theoretical lessons and classroom exercises. The latter, that are in alternation with the theory lessons, refer to the concepts presented in the course and aim at teaching numerical methods to address typical issues of design and management of industrial plants.

	Verification of learning
	EVALUATION OF THE DESIGN MODULE TAKES PLACE THROUGH A WRITTEN (DURATION 30 MINUTES) AND AN ORAL TEST. ADMISSION TO THE ORAL TEST IS POSSIBLE WITH A GRADE EQUAL TO OR HIGHER THAN 18/30. THE ORAL EXAM IS ON 2 TOPICS AND THE VOTE IS EXPRESSED IN THIRTIETHS. THE FINAL GRADE IS THE WEIGHTED AVERAGE OF THE WRITTEN VOTE (1/3) AND THE ORAL VOTE (2/3) PLUS THE POSSIBLE ATTRIBUTION OF THE HONORS. THE EVALUATION OF THE MANAGEMENT MODULE TAKES PLACE THROUGH A WRITTEN AND AN ORAL TEST. THE WRITTEN TEST (DURATION 60 MINUTES) CONSISTS OF A VARIABLE NUMBER OF QUESTIONS ON 3 TOPICS OF THE PROGRAM. THE QUESTIONS, APPROPRIATELY CONSTRUCTED IN NUMERICAL FORM, AIM TO TEST THE COMPREHENSION OF THE THEORETICAL ARGUMENTS PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE. THE NUMERICAL FORM OF THE TRACKS IS RANDOM FOR EACH STUDENT IN ORDER TO DISCOURAGE COLLABORATION AND TO HAVE A MORE ACCURATE INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENT. THE ADMISSION THRESHOLD FOR THE ORAL EXAM IS 18/30. THE FINAL GRADE FOR THE MANAGEMENT MODULE IS A WEIGHTED AVERAGE OF THE WRITTEN TEST SCORE (8/10) AND THE ORAL TEST SCORE (2/10) EXPRESSED IN THIRTIETHS. THE HONOR CAN BE ASSIGNED IN THE PRESENCE OF A WEIGHTED AVERAGE SCORE EQUAL TO 30. THE FINAL VOTE IS THE AVERAGE OF THE VOTES OF THE DESING AND THE MANAGEMENT PART. THE HONOR IS ATTRIBUTED IN THE PRESENCE OF THE 30 TO BOTH MODULES AND THE HONOR AT LEAST ONE OF THE MODULES. THE PASSING RATE IS OBTAINABLE BY DEMONSTRATING A SATISFACTORY KNOWLEDGE OF THE MAIN INVENTORY MANAGEMENT MODELS, OF THE TOOLS FOR ANALYZING AND SOLVING THE MAIN PROBLEMS RELATING TO THE DESIGN AND MANAGEMENT OF INDUSTRIAL PLANTS, OF THE METHODS FOR SIZING THE MAIN COMPANY LAYOUTS, OF THE METHODS FOR RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND THE MEANING OF KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS.
