New Process Learning by Engineering Supervisors

 

A to Z - Activities, Competencies, Education and Training of Engineering Supervisors - Article Series

A process is the sequence of steps or operations in the production of a part or a product. As new parts are designed, new processes come into existence. Processes are communicated through process plans and operation drawings. Supervisors have to learn the new processes. They have to understand new processes conceptually and they have to develop the capability to train their operators in the operations included in the process. The output of the process must have quality and productivity. If new equipment and tools are brought in, supervisors have to learn about them.
