Frequently asked questions
OEE Toolkit will help you identify the hidden losses that result in lower productivity. You can improve productivity by understanding these losses better and eliminating root causes one at a time.
You can create reports that are meaningful to production teams with a push of a button.
Using OEE, all parameters are connected in one figure; we help you establish the categories and identifiers of losses that make sense for you. All disciplines are involved because all parameters are joined in OEE, this will create ownership for the process and improving OEE.
The production workers and team leaders keep track of the losses as they occur during the day so the data about the losses comes from the place it happens, when it happens, rather than ending up on a desk in the office waiting to be entered (typical time to enter one shift is 3 minutes).
5. We need a quick yet accurate measurement system. How soon can we have OEE Toolkit working for us?
You can have OEE Toolkit up and running in one day.
The OEE Toolkit is not used to 'police' the operators or measure individual performance. The OEE Toolkit is an operator tool that lets the worker get involved in measuring the performance of the process so they can identify where they need help fixing problems. As long as management takes action and helps improve processes to reduce losses, there is great ownership.
The data entry requirements are minimal and the OEE Toolkit is does the work of analyzing, charting, and graphing the data you input.
OEE Toolkit will give you insight into the hidden losses (potential capacity) of your machines. Followed up with improvement team activity, it often means you will be able to avoid new capital investment.
The OEE Toolkit can be learned on the job or in class and typically takes no more than an hour.
The OEE Toolkit can be used on any machine that has measurable times and outputs.
11. Will I be able to have KPI (Key Process Indicator) for all machines at all production locations?
OEE Toolkit together with OEE Industry Standard is designed to help you establish KPIs that are meaningful and useful for you.
Our training guide "OEE Industry Standard" enables you to benchmark worldwide within your industry.
Yes. OEE Toolkit communicates with any other program so you can use output from OEE Toolkit for your management metrics.
