An Analysis of Radio Dispatch Operations in the Maintenance Directorate of Red River Army Depot.
Abstract
The report analyzed the radio dispatch operation for fork lifts, warehouse towmotors, hydraulic towmotors, caterpiller towmotors, and drivers of the Maintenance Directorate of Red River Army Depot. The adequacy of the system in terms of number of vehicles, accuracy of reported utilization, and production delay reporting procedures was analyzed in order to determine whether or not the system was operating in an economically efficient manner. Cost equations were derived which used the operating characteristics of each type of equipment to determine the operating cost. The analysis revealed that production delays were not being properly used and that the number of production delay reports could only be reduced if more stringent rules for their use were introduced.
