A manufacturing plant uses Lean processes. You plan to outsource a painting operation to a subcontracting vendor. You create a service item named SP-01 to represent the painting service.

You need to create a subcontracting activity for the painting service.

Solution:
• Create a vendor resource and work cell for outsourced painting; add the vendor resource to the work cell.
• Create a production flow process activity using the painting work cell and the service item for picking.
• When the service is required, create a purchase order to the subcontracting vendor and add a line for the service item and the vendor price.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The solution meets the goal because it effectively outlines the necessary steps to create a subcontracting activity for the painting service. By establishing a vendor resource and a work cell, linking them to the production process, and generating a purchase order when the service is needed, all requirements for outsourcing the painting operation are satisfied. The alternative option 'No' is incorrect as it fails to recognize the completeness of the proposed solution.
