APICS Exam CPIM-Part-2 Topic 4 Question 31 Discussion
Topic #: 4
"We have observed the inventory system does not handle plastic parts well." What should be added to the problem statement to make it more useful?
Measurements are quantitative or qualitative data that indicate the magnitude, frequency, or impact of the problem. Measurements help to define the problem clearly, objectively, and specifically, as well as to establish a baseline for improvement. Therefore, what should be added to the problem statement to make it more useful is measurements that help describe the problem. For example, a more useful problem statement could be ''We have observed that the inventory system causes 15% of plastic parts to be damaged or misplaced every month, resulting in $10,000 of additional costs and 5% of customer complaints.''
