Effects of complexity in manufacturing systems.

Effects	Planning	Organization	Management	Control
E1	High uncertainty of demand	High difficulty in decision making	Lack of effective leadership	Lack of follow up to established plans
E2	Excess of installed capacity	Bottlenecks and inefficiencies	Lack of motivational initiatives	Lack of monitoring
E3	High volume of raw materials	Imbalance in resource allocation	Insufficient supervision	Infrequent evaluations
E4	High skills in the workforce	Lack of standardized procedures	Inefficiency in problem solving	Poor inspections
E5	High obsolescence of technology and equipment	Changes in customer requirements	Poor communication	Lack of variance analysis
E6	High variation in demand projection	High number of customers	Lack of resources and training opportunities	Excess inventory
E7	High number of product SKUs	Difficulty in scheduling orders	Lack of attention to quality and safety standards	High financial pressure due to high operating costs
E8	High number of product components and parts	Incompatible scheduling system	Inability to handle internal conflicts	Frequent delays in the execution of production processes
E9	Complex infrastructure	Difficult order scheduling model	Lack of a collaborative culture	Lack of performance indicators
E10	Different flows of operations or activities	Lack of coordination between departments leading to conflicts and delays	Resistance to change hindering the implementation of process improvements	Poorly defined quality standards affecting product consistency
