Question Paper
M.B.A. I (Semester II) Examination, 2016
(Paper XII) PRODUCTION AND MATERIALS MANAGEMENT
Day and Date Friday, 2-12-2016 Total Marks 70
Time 2.30 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.
Instructions Question number 1 is compulsory.
Attempt any two questions from Q. Nos. 3 and 4.
Attempt any two questions from Q. Nos. 6 and 7.
1. Analyse the case 14
HT corporation, a manufacturer of heavy trucks had a long, sad and bitter history
of employee relations. The company openly practiced "management through
terrorism". Engineers and technicians dominated the culture. One of the
company's assembly plants devoted major resources to statistical process charts.
An entire department staffed with engineers justified its existence by keeping
control charts. The engineers collected and stored data on a computer and
posted the charts in every production department once each week. They also
posted lists of problems and defects attributable to each department. Another
department kept itself busy with "work redesign" and "assembly line balancing".
The plant was highly product focused. Material moved smoothly from one operation
to next. Subassemblies flowed into assemblies like the tributaries of a river, all
moving toward final assembly line.
Despite this effort, quality was mediocre at best. HT Corporation devoted more
factory space to rework and repair operations than to the assembly. The individual
and social aspects of the system were largely ignored. People lacked interpersonal
skills, common goals and trust and they could not hope to attain these qualities
under the existing power structure and reward system.
