Risk Management in Material Handling for Mechanical Industry & Projects
Role of Industry Representative & Experience
The Industry Representative has a significant role in the mechanical and manufacturing industry and is responsible for the operations management in the industry. The Industry Representative is responsible for the operation handling and ensuring the material handling is smoothly done. The associated design aspects and operational workflows are managed and approved by the Industry Representative (Mohsen, 2016).
The overall experience of the Industry Representative in the industry is 12 years and in this role is 5.5 years.
Summary of Questions
Importance of Research Topic
The Industry Representative listed out the risks that are cu
ently present with the manual material handling in the mechanical and manufacturing industries. The representative found the topic important from the industry perspective.
Justification on the Research
The Industry Representative was also convinced on the justification that has been included for the research. The industry representative appreciated the research theme as it is relevant in the mechanical industry.
Feasibility of the Proposed Methodology
The methodology that is proposed for the research is the exploratory methodology. The representative then evaluated the exploratory research method as a measure to provide the answers to the research questions. The methodology was found to be feasible for the research as it comprised of the aspects of both qualitative and quantitative techniques (Kulinska, 2015).
Industry Applications of Findings
The industry representative stated that the findings will be applicable in the industry as the newer mechanisms and procedures to control and avoid the risks will be presented.
Summary of Feedback & Recommendations
The Industry Representative highlighted the need of the tools, techniques, and approaches to manage these risks. The research topic was, therefore, stated as extremely important from the aspect of industrial success and performance management. The representative had a keen interest on the strategies and controls that will be identified as an outcome of the research. Being in this industry for several years, the industry representative was also aware of the several issues and risks that are seen in the manual material handling. This made the representative convinced of the justification included. . The industry representative analysed the research questions and sub-questions for the research. The industry representative also stated that the methodology will be able to explore the risk areas and the strategies suitable for the control of the same. The risks in the material handling have negatively impacted the mechanical and manufacturing industries. The research findings will comprise of the tactics and strategies to control these risks. This will assist in the improvement of the overall industrial operations’ performance and efficiency (Rajesh, 2016).
The industry representative also provided a few recommendations on the further improvement of the research work and the associated outcomes. The representative suggested the use of the company documentation to understand the flow properly and determine the risks that come up. The representative stated that the detailed information is recorded in the company documentation and records. This information will not be identified with the observation of the activities at the site. The representative stated that the use of company documentation will provide more clarity on the risks and issues. This will give the ability to develop the strategies and controls in a better way.
Reflection on the Feedback
I participated in the discussion and sessions with the industry representative and the representative supported the idea of the research. The representative also stated that the research would be adequate in terms of the industry applications and it will add value to the overall industrial operations.
I could determine the feasibility of the research and could gain more clarity on the same after the discussion with the industry representative. The representative evaluated the research questions along with the research objectives and methodology. The representative stated that the methodology will be suitable to provide answers to all of the research questions and added a few recommendations on the same (Khedkar & Shrigiriwar, 2017).
I believe that the recommendations provided by the industry representative are very valid. I will make changes in the research proposal accordingly. I will add the methods proposed by the industry representative in the research proposal. The industry representative likewise gave a couple of proposals on the further improvement of the research work and the associated results. The representative proposed the utilization of the company documentation to comprehend the flow appropriately and decide the risks that surface. The representative expressed that the itemized data is recorded in the company documentation and records. This data won't be related to the observation of the exercises at the site. The representative expressed that the utilization of company documentation will give greater clearness on the risks and issues. This will enable to build up the strategies and controls in a better manner.
The interaction with the industry representative proved to be useful for the research activity. I could obtain the in-depth details of the industrial activities and norms that will have a lot of relevance in the research work. This will lead to the improvement of the overall research aims and objectives.
