Many companies have been subject to unexpected or forced reductions in their workforce. How do those reductions affect productivity from an OEE standpoint or other measurable factors?

1. The feasibility of converting from manual to automated data collection in a manufacturing plant, thereby transitioning downtime recording and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) calculations from a lagging reporting system to real-time reporting and communication.

 

Key aspects will involve acquiring and synthesizing large amounts of data in order to identify workflow constraints, risks, issues, and opportunities. Ultimately, this will require performing detailed process analyses using Lean Six Sigma (LSS) to drive the design and implementation of optimized improvement strategies, as well as translating results into artifacts that are easily understandable and presentable to enable decision makers to take action.

2. Optimizing the productivity of manufacturing plants during workforce reductions: COVID-19 has caused some serious disruptions. Many companies have been subject to unexpected or forced reductions in their workforce. How do those reductions affect productivity from an OEE standpoint or other measurable factors?

3. Optimizing the reliability of manufacturing plants during maintenance workforce reductions: Again, looking at the COVID-19 impact on maintenance from an OEE standpoint.
