This document discusses overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and how manufacturers can track production performance. It begins by explaining that OEE measures availability, performance, and quality to identify bottlenecks. It then discusses how a manufacturing execution system (MES) can help track OEE by machine, worker, shift, and material to improve processes. Finally, it explains that detailed traceability of materials through production improves quality and helps isolate problems, and technologies like RFID, barcodes, and direct part marking enable this level of traceability. The goal is to maximize OEE factors like availability, performance, and quality to achieve world-class OEE levels.
The document outlines a process with multiple parallel parts that define a core process and undergo validation. It then progresses to ongoing support, knowledge transfer, and conference room pilots before establishing relationships and choosing necessary players, caddies, balls, and clubs to go live.
