Microsoft MB-335 Exam - Topic 1 Question 33 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's MB-335 exam
Question #: 33
Topic #: 1
[All MB-335 Questions]

You are a process engineer evaluating lean vs. Discrete processing. You warn to convert a Kanban item. This item has the following Lean setup:

* The setup uses a lean schedule group with a throughput ratio = 2.

* The process activity tied to production flow has the following runtime activity times: time = 3 mm. per quantity = 1.

* The work cell capacity has a model type of Throughput and an average throughput quantity of 60 per a capacity period of standard workday (8-hour day).

* The throughput is 10 per hour.

You need to set up a Discrete operation to mirror the item s production flow activity.

What should you do?

Good point, Sam! I’m surprised by that too.

Wait, a runtime of 10? That seems off.

I’m leaning towards option D since it has a runtime of 1, which seems to align with the discrete processing setup, but I’m not entirely confident.

I practiced a similar question where we had to adjust the process quantities based on throughput. I feel like option A might be too high for the runtime.

I think option B sounds familiar because it has a runtime that seems to match the total processing time for one item, but I can't recall if that's the right approach.

I remember that the runtime should reflect the total time for processing, but I'm not sure if it should be based on the throughput or the individual item time.

Based on the information provided, I think option D is the way to go. The runtime of 1 and process quantity of 1 seem to best match the Lean setup. I'll review my work, but I'm feeling confident about this one.

I'm a bit confused by all the different metrics and time units here. I'll need to make sure I understand how the Lean setup translates to the Discrete operation before committing to an answer.

Okay, let's see here. The Lean setup has a throughput ratio of 2, which means the Discrete operation should probably have a process quantity of 2 to match. I'm leaning towards option B, but I'll double-check the other details to be sure.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the details and think through the implications of the Lean setup before deciding on the best Discrete operation.

This is a good test of our understanding of how the SMA and Notification Server interact. I'm pretty confident that option C is the correct answer, as it describes the most direct and logical way for the SMA to send information back to the Notification Server.

Hold up, did they just slip in a dad joke about 'Throughput' in the question? I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

Ugh, I hate these production flow questions. Can we just skip to the part where they ask about the fastest way to automate the whole process? That's where I shine!

That sounds like a good approach. Let's focus on optimizing the process automation once we figure out the production flow.

I think the answer might be to create a route with a runtime = 1, a process quantity = 1, and the operation's hours/time = 1.

Alright, let's see... The throughput ratio is 2, so I'm thinking option A might be the way to go. Gotta love these brain-teasers!

Wait, is this a trick question? I'm not sure I fully understand the lean vs. discrete setup here. Maybe I should have paid more attention in that process engineering class...

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'd go with option B - the runtime of 6 seems to match the lean setup, and the process quantity of 1 makes sense too.
