Job Production

Job Method

With Job production, the complete task is handled by a single worker or group of workers. Jobs can be small-scale/low technology as well as complex/high technology. It meets the exact requirements of the customer rather than supplying standard products which customers can choose regularly. 

• Low technology jobs: here the organisation of production is extremely simply, with the required skills and equipment easily obtainable. This method enables customer's specific requirements to be included, often as the job progresses.
• High technology jobs: high technology jobs involve much greater complexity - and therefore present greater management challenge. The important ingredient in high-technology job production isproject management, or project control. 

Examples of high technology / complex jobs: film production; large construction projects (e.g. the Millennium Dome)

Examples of low technology jobs: Tailor, Restaurants and Gardening.
