Question

Joleen builds custom homes, promising completion within 3-months on average. Her electricians can complete 12 houses per month, her plumbers can complete 14 houses per month, and her carpenters can work at the rate of 15 houses per month (ignore all other trades). What is the maximum number of houses that Joleen should have under construction at one time? Hint: Joleen is going to set a WIP limit. Remember, we set a WIP limit using Little's Law, I = R T. We want to meet the lead time while keeping the bottleneck busy "all the time."
