This document summarizes a study analyzing the expansion of utilities plants. It outlines the glass making process and problem, describes building a model to analyze results, and discusses key findings. The model helped identify bottlenecks like cranes, showed how reducing wait times could lower costs, and determined a new routing strategy could increase productivity and sales. In conclusion, the simulation model was useful for analyzing issues related to the upgrading project and improving production scheduling.

- 25. Conclusion • The simulation model helped analyzing several issues related to the upgrading project. • The existing cranes is a bottleneck. • The new routing strategy that can give 2% increase in the productivity ($2 million of sales). • The analysis of the waiting time using this model improved the production scheduling.
