This chapter explores the process design analysis, which involves calculating the objectives, sequence of activities, task allocation, capacity, and variability effects. It includes various process mapping symbols and examples of different process configurations. Queuing analysis and the relationship between process utilization and the number of units waiting to be processed are also discussed.
