Abstract
Description
Facility Layout is an essential aspect of any industry or firm because it determines how well
the industry would operate when production begins and how productive its processes would
be. Some of its objectives are to save cost, and time, improve productivity and enhance
customer satisfaction. Facility layout design is also fundamental because it lays the
foundation for how the layout would look before it is produced physically or further improved
on. The review discusses how CORELAP is being implemented and its firms or industries'
effects where it was implemented. From this review, it can be concluded that CORELAP is
an efficient and effective technique that can be used to create new layouts and redesign
existing layouts to reduce material handling distance, save time, and save costs incurred.
