Operations Performance

The five measures for outstanding operations performance are: 

  1. Bottleneck utilization of between 90 and 95% for a push system and between 90 and 100% for a pull system.
  2. Critical WIP to Number of WIP Positions ratio of 85% or above.
  3. WIP to Critical WIP ratio of five or less.
  4. Operation between the Best Case and Marginal Case on the Throughput versus WIP curve and Cycle Time versus WIP curve.
  5. Operation on the efficient frontier of the inventory investment versus customer service level curve.

If your company is able to achieve all five of these measures you will be very efficient, create little waste, and be very responsive. 

C-Suite visual assessment capability shows you, instantly, where you stand on these important performance measures.  Further, C-Suite quantifies the important trade-off relationships that impact performance.  C-Suite's robust optimization algorithms optimize throughput, WIP, cycle time and inventory investments
