1) “Business Processes” Note: Please select one of the two subjects to discuss. Per the textbook, to eliminate or reduce non-value-added work is a core step in improving profitability or efficiency of the business process. Give your opinion on whether or not you agree or disagree with this statement and include one (1) example of a business process which supports or criticizes the aforementioned statement to support your position. Or, Agree or Disagree: From a process improvement perspective, service and non-manufacturing processes have little in common with manufacturing processes. Provide at least two points to support your position.

2) The following data consists of the actual time used and potential (the best time possible for this review process) to complete each step in the review process. The actual times are based on the review of 30 projects. The potential times are subjective engineering judgment estimates.

Table: Basic Data Review for Construction Project Equipment Arrangement Cycle Time (hours) Step Description Actual Potential Difference 1 Read basic data package 4 4 — 2 Write, type, proof, sign, copy, and distribute cover letter 21.9 0.5 21.4 3 Queue 40 0 40 4 Lead engineer calls key people to schedule meeting 4 0.25 3.75 5 Write, type, proof, sign, copy, and distribute confirmation letter 25.4 2.1 23.3 6 Hold meeting; develop path forward and concerns 4 4 — 7 Project leader and specialist develop missing information 12 12 — 8 Determine plant preferred vendors 12 12 — 9 Review notes from meeting 12 12 — 10 Resolve open issues 106 104 2 11 Write, type, proof, sign, copy, and distribute basic data acceptance letter 26.5 0.25 26.25 Totals 267.8 151.1 116.7 Use the data in the table above and answer the following questions in the space provided below: 1. What are the sources of value-added and non-value-added work in this process? 2. Where are the main opportunities to improve the cycle time of this process, with respect to both actual time used and the potential best times? What strategy would you use? 3. Step 10: Resolve Open Issues required 104 hours (potential) versus 106 hours (actual). Is there an OFI here? Why or why not? If so, how would you attack it? 4. What do you think are the most difficult critical issues to deal with when designing a sound cycle time study such as this one?

1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java.

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION AND THE EARLY REPUBLIC

By
Assignment Overview The American Revolution and Independence As we saw in the Module Overview, there were numerous factors that ultimately led to revolution and independence. In this second Case assignment, you’ll be researching and writing about some of those factors. Case Assignment Write a 3 to 4-page essay identifying at least FOUR factors which led to colonial independence. In your paper, explain which events triggered discord between the colonies and the Mother Country. Be sure to do some research on your own and use other resources to analyze the thought-processes which sparked independent thinking. The best way to approach and organize the paper would be to create a title for each event and then discuss your findings. For example; for the first one you could write, “Event 1, The Seven Years War”. This would be followed by your narrative on how this war led to independence. The rest of the paper would follow this pattern. Assignment Expectations Use concepts from the background
