“…Within the context of manufacturing systems and cell design, performances can be determined using mathematical methods (Askin and Stanbridge 1993, Logendran 1993, Benjaafar 1995 and simulation (Morris and Tersine 1994, Massay et al 1995, Chan et al 1995. These methods su er because they do not tell the user how to improve the systemÐ they simply identify the e ects of di erent changes.…”

An important element in the design and management of cellular manufacturing systems is the ability to determine capabilities. This paper describes a generic methodology of Capability Analysis (CA) which can be used for the integrated assessment of various capability factors. The main aspect of CA is the ability to compare di erent factors alongside one-another. This is done by determining priority con® dence scores (PCS values) which are capability scores (measures of performance) represented as proportions of required capability scores adjusted to take into account improvement potential, factor importance and ® nancial considerations. CA is used to form a recovery schedule of targets for improvement ranked in order of priority and is produced by ranking the PCS values for each capability level (cell, product, part, workstation and operation). Targets at a higher level can be broken down into more detailed targets at a lower level using the concept of transparency. The workings of CA are demonstrated using an example.

“…They reported that using portable work stations can increase the output rate. Morris and Tersine (1994) examined the impact of labor and equipment in a dual constraint resource planning to compare the process layouts and cell layouts. Hyer et al (1999) carried out a filed study considering 8 human factors in cell systems to find the importance of different human factors may influence the CMS.…”

This paper presents a review of human resource planning methods, related techniques, and their effects on cellular manufacturing systems (CMS). In-depth analysis has been conducted through a review of 43 dominant research papers available in the literature. The advantages, limitations, and drawbacks of material transferring methods have been discussed as well. The domains of the examined studies include some of the important problems in staff planning, such as worker assigning, hiring and firing, optimum number of workers, skilled workers, cross-functional experts, worker satisfaction and outsourcing. The results of this study can fill research gaps and clarify many related questions in CMS problems.
