Production

Many different businesses sell a product, in the process of making the product there is the production process, this is either mass production, batch production, continueoues production or one-off production, with a good IT system the production is kept going and the supply under control if this supply was not kept under control then for example a car manufacturer may run out of components and th eproduction line will come to a standstill, either though the workers are getting paid for this.

Batch Production- is when there is a small amount around 1000 being produced
Mass production- when there is huge amount being produced like car manufacture like Ford
One-off production- is when a product is made only once like a conecpt gadget
Continueous production- is when the production line is running 24/7 like making aluminiun cans
