Production Performance Analysis: Tasks (Level 3)
- Producing reports of performance and cost
- Which cost types should be determined?
- Should benchmark information be stored in the MES?
- Which information are used and in which systems the information are available?
- Evaluating constraints to capacity and quality
- What are these events?
- How often / in what cycle should this happen?
- How to respond to these events?
- Performing performance tests where necessary to determine capacity
- Which tests and how often should they be performed?
- Comparing different production lines
- Which comparisons are meaningful (eg utilization, energy consumption, performance, throughput)?
- Comparing and contrasting one run against another
- Which comparisons are meaningful (eg utilization, energy consumption, performance, throughput)?
- Comparing production runs to identify "golden runs"
- Should the "Golden Run / Batch" be marked as such?
- Should criteria also be specified?
- Determining why the “golden” runs are exceptional
- Comparing runs against "golden runs"
- Should only current data or historical data be compared?
- How many production runs should be compared at the same time?
- Providing changes to process and procedures
- Should this also be possible in real time or only after completion of the production (for example, taking over changes in basic recipe)
- Predicting the results of a production run, based on the current and past performance
