CE15: Have basic knowledge of production and manufacturing systems.
CE17: Applied knowledge of business organization.
CT2: That students have the ability to work as members of an interdisciplinary team either as one more member, or performing management tasks in order to contribute to developing projects with pragmatism and a sense of responsibility, assuming commitments taking into account count available resources.
Subject framed in the matter of Organization of the Production. The course aims to train students in the basic aspects of the design and management of production systems. Specifically, methods of aggregate planning and stock management in the industrial enterprise are studied. Additionally, the basic aspects of the design of production systems are studied, such as the location of the system, the distribution in the plant and the design of the manufacturing process. All this complemented with the presentation of the main management technologies used in the industrial company.
At the end of the course the student must be able to:
The subject consists of 4 weekly hours of face-to-face class and in the classroom (large group), where the theoretical contents will be worked and exercises and problems of a practical nature will be solved; and also consists of laboratory sessions of 2 hour per week up to a total of 20 hours of a practical nature in the computer laboratory (small group).
For each topic of the subject, the student will have a Methodological Guide that will include: Outline of the theoretical contents, proposal of exercises and problems, statements of the related activities, recommended readings, and test of self-evaluation of the objectives of 'learning.
Both theory and laboratory sessions are compulsory, and the latter will be developed by bringing students together in groups of 2 to 6 people, depending on the activity. Each activity will need a previous preparation that will be carried out, a part, in the face-to-face classes in the classroom, and another will have to do it the students in the time of autonomous learning. These activities will be temporarily extended beyond lab hours, and students will be required to complete them during the autonomous learning time.
Whenever it is considered appropriate, it will be made available to students activities of a completely voluntary nature that will help them prepare for work and prepare for those of a compulsory nature.

Title of the activity 1: PRODUCTION PLANNING BY THE TABULAR METHOD FROM THE EXPECTED DEMAND. DEPENDENT DEMAND INVENTORY SYSTEM (MRP)
Title of the activity 2: PRODUCTION PLANNING. INDEPENDENT DEMAND INVENTORY SYSTEM
Title of the activity 3: PRODUCTION PLANNING BY MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING
Title of the activity 4: PRODUCTION AND QUALITY PLAN
Title of the activity 5: EXAMINATION 1
Title of the activity 6: EXAMINATION 2
For each activity, teachers will report on the particular rules and conditions that govern them. This information will be communicated in the physical classroom and / or published in the virtual classroom.
One-on-one activities presuppose the student's commitment to carry them out individually. All activities in which the student does not fulfill this commitment regardless of their role (origin or destination) will be considered suspended.
Likewise, the activities to be carried out in groups presuppose the commitment on the part of the students who make it up to carry them out within the group. All activities in which the group has not respected this commitment regardless of its role (origin or destination) will be considered suspended. The responsibility for the results of the work lies with the group, and not with the individuals who make it up. In any case, teachers can, based on the information they have, customize the grade for each member of the group.
Any undelivered activity will be considered scored with zero points. Failure to attend a laboratory session automatically excludes from the evaluation of the corresponding activity, being considered scored with zero points.
It is optional for teachers to accept or not deliveries outside the deadlines indicated. In the event that these late deliveries are accepted, it is up to the teacher to decide whether to apply a penalty and the amount thereof.
The final grade is the weighted sum of the grades of the activities:
Activity 1: 5%
Activity 2: 5%
Activity 3: 5%
Activity 4: 20%
Activity 5 (Exam 1): 30%
Activity 6 (Exam 2): 35%
Attendance at the theoretical and laboratory sessions, and the delivery of the corresponding reports of activities 1, 2, 3 and 4 is a necessary condition for the evaluation of the subject.
It will be up to the teachers of the subject to decide on the possibility of adding activities that allow the recovery of the suspended activities.
It is compulsory to carry out all the activities to obtain the final grade of the subject. The algorithm for calculating the grade is only applied if the weighted average grade of Activities 5 and 6 is greater than or equal to 4. Otherwise the subject is suspended.
The resit exam only gives the option to pass the subject with a grade of 5, except in the case where the weighted average grade of the first 4 activities is equal to or greater than 8. In this case the final grade will correspond to the weighted average mark of all the activities of the subject (the resit exam corresponds to activities 5 and 6, and its mark must be greater than or equal to 4).
For activities 1 to 4, if the result of their evaluation is not satisfactory, or the teachers consider it opportune, they will be able to summon the members of a group to carry out an individualized evaluation test.
