Analyze the performance of a variety of distinct production and service systems and use that information as tools to support decision-making processes.

Develop spreadsheets models and simulations to improve decision making.

Identify the characteristics and cost structures of different types of logistic networks and modes of transportation.

Students will be able to: Identify, formulate, and solve system design problems characterized by uncertain demand and limited resources.

Understand the sources and inherent effects of variability on the performance of production and service systems and ways to mitigate its associated and undesired impacts.
