the Principles and Techniques of Scientific Management developed by FW Taylor. On
completing his MBA, he wanted to apply Scientific Management in his family’s business of
fast food chain of restaurants named ‘Burger Mania’.
His main goal was to reduce costs with increased output. To begin with, he wanted to
develop a standard method which would be followed throughout the organisation. So, he
investigated traditional methods through work study and unified the best practices. The
standard method, i.e. the best way of doing the job was then developed taking into account
all parameters right from the procurement of raw materials till the delivery of the final
product to the customer. Vishesh also believed that each person should not only be
scientifically selected but should also be given the required training to increase efficiency.
For this, he set up a Special Training Unit called ‘Hamburger’ in Bengaluru where the
workers were given the required training to learn the best method. At the factory, the
ingredients making up a burger were strategically placed to reduce the time taken for excess
movements. The standard time and other parameters were determined on the basis of work
study and (Vishesh rewarded the workers for meeting the standard output.)
Now ‘Burger Mania’ has standardised processes, raw material, time, machinery, product
and working conditions that ensure that the food they send out to their customers has the
same high standards of excellence and level of quality in every chain or franchise.
The application of Scientific Management to every aspect of restaurant operations led to
‘Burger Mania’s’ widespread success.
Quoting the lines from the above, explain the Principles and Techniques of ‘Scientific
Management’ used by ‘Burger Mania’.
