Tombro Industries is in the process of automating one of its plants and developing a flexible manufacturing system. The company is finding it necessary to make many changes in operating procedures. Progress has been slow, particularly in trying to develop new performance measures for the factory In an effort to evaluate performance and determine where improvements can be made, management has gathered the following data relating to activities over the last four months Month 0 205 66 901 103 50 116 50 99 98 10 daya 9 daya 10 1 7 day 29 9 days 35 Quality control measures Number of dem No warranty claims Number of customer plaint Material control theaters Purchase ordet load in Dront of total cont Machine performance more Machine down percentage of availability Vatroontage of availability Betup Lithours) Delivery for Thought in mutacturing coenoy (MCT Dolery tyle Per contage of online 45 924 995 20 40 39 13 35 14 7 7 7 The president has read in industry journals that throughput time, MCE and delivery cycle time are important measures of performance, but no one is sure how they are computed.
