Facility Design
For this Discussion, you will need to conduct research on capacity and facilities before you
can prepare a complete response to the questions asked. Start this research by reviewing
the Web Field Trip resources below. Be sure each of the questions below is addressed. Address each question individually and be
careful not to combine your questions and answers:
2. What departments within the market tend to be co-located (adjacent to one another)? Do
you believe the co-location is planned? If so, why?
3. What departments within the market tend to be distant from one another? What purpose
is accomplished by separating these departments so far apart from each other?
4. Why is the layout of the supermarket so important to the overall delivery of the products
and services provided?
5. What recommendations would you make to the layout of the supermarket to make the
layout more effective or efficient?
