Abstract:
The project documented in this report addressed the need for the design of a vehicle
assembly line layout for the TuksBaja organisation. The project centered around the
design and project implementation cycle, typically adopted by engineering projects, that
began with proposed layouts for the assembly line, utilised economic analysis and simulation
modelling to objectively compare the feasible options, and finally analytic hierarchy
principles to select the final design for implementation. This report serves to record the
entire project life cycle and concluded that the Modular assembly line layout was the best
choice for the TuksBaja Production Facility since it not only met the required production
demand the fastest, but was also the most economical option.
