Capacity Planning
- Long Term Capacity: it is dependent on various other capacities like design capacity,
production capacity, sustainable capacity and effective capacity. Generally, this
capacity planning is greater than 3 years. The examples are:
a. PepsiCos Fritolay inaugurated its potato chips plant in Azov, Rostov region,
southern Russia in 2010. The plant has been designed for an initial annual production
capacity of 25,000t, which is expected to grow to 50,000t/y with the addition of two
production lines by 2013. This will double Frito-Lay's production capacity in Russia
to 90,000t/y. The factory is equipped with extruding technology for the production of
corn chips and crispy bread snacks. It is 30% more efficient, consumes fewer
resources and generates less waste. PepsiCo is also building a $140m beverage plant
at the site, bringing the total investment to $250m. It is expected to produce 500
million litres of iced tea and other soft drinks by spring 2013. The two plants will
employ about 1,000 people and pay an average salary of $930 per month. The
company is also planning to build a warehouse and another plant in Rostov by 2015.

- Short Term Capacity: The strategic planning undertaken by organization for a daily
weekly or quarterly time frame is referred to as short term capacity planning (less than
a year). For instance:
a. Kate Spead & Co., the luxury handbag and fashion accessories company announced
fourth-quarter 2016 results and that the company is "reviewing strategic alternatives."
Quarterly revenue climbed 9.8% year over year (10.1% excluding sales for
wind-down operations in last year's fourth quarter), to $471 million, driven by 9.2%
growth in direct-to-consumer comparable sales. On the bottom line, net income grew
39.2%, to $85.5 million, while diluted earnings per share from continuing operations
were $0.67. Adjusted for using a normalized tax rate, diluted earnings were $0.41 per
share, up from $0.32 per share in the same year-ago period. Analysts, on average,
were expecting Kate Spade to report slightly higher fourth-quarter revenue of $472.8
million, but lower adjusted earnings of $0.35 per share. The first thing that comes to
mind in these cases is the potential for Kate Spade to put itself (or a portion of its
business) up for sale. But to be fair, Kate Spade reminded investors, "There can be no
assurance that this review process will result in a transaction or other strategic
alternative of any kind". In addition, Kate Spade noted there is no definitive timetable
for the completion of this process, instead promising it will "proceed in a timely
manner" and offer updates as it deems appropriate.
