Identify (knowledge) the key elements in a value generating system and select (knowledge) appropriate performance indicators and use these for assessing (evaluation) the functional properties of the system. On successful engagement with the unit the participants should be able to: This unit provides a broad range of skills for students to analyse complex value adding systems such as manufacturing and service provision systems by identifying their key elements and performance metrics, determining the effect of potential changes to the system and recommending changes that would result in sustainable and significant improvements.
