We are often asked what companies (or types of companies) are using OEE as part of their daily operations. While our focus has been primarily in the automotive industry, we are highly encouraged by the level of integration deployed in the Semiconductor Industry. We have found an excellent article that describes how OEE among other metrics is being used to […]

OEE For Manufacturing
OEE – A Vantage Point Metric
The automotive industry has recently been plagued by doom and gloom as the economy continues to erode any chances for a rebound. Chrysler has already met with the reality of an uncertain future and has subsequently filed for bankruptcy. Unfortunately, as Chrysler plants shut down and cease operations for the next 30 – 60 days, suppliers will also feel the impact […]

OEE Integration – Where do We Measure OEE? – Part I
OEE Integration Part IX – Where do we measure OEE? Our recent posts have included numerous examples to calculate OEE correctly. We also discussed integration of OEE as an effective metric for managing your processes and ultimately how to analyze and use the data to improve your profitability. We spent little time discussing where this measurement should occur. OEE can […]

Practical OEE – How To Calculate and Use Weighted OEE
We have presented the methods of calculating OEE for a process and also demonstrated how weighted OEE is calculated for multiple processes. Our next challenge is to determine how this data can be used to make sure we are targeting the right processes for improvement. Over the next few posts, we will show you how to calculate weighted OEE factors for each process. […]
