What is Overall Equipment Effectiveness?

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a measure of manufacturing process productivity. An OEE score of 100 percent demonstrates that an organization is manufacturing design-standard goods as quickly as possible with little to no downtime. OEE is comprised of a few main areas, including availability (runtime vs. stop time/availability loss), quality (acceptable output vs. defects/quality loss), and performance (optimum runtime scenario vs slow cycles/performance loss). Custom KPIs can be set to measure the performance of processes against business objectives to support cost reduction and maintain high quality output.

How OEE Works

OEE software provides a full end-to-end process performance monitoring solution that provides actionable intelligence to users at any level of an enterprise. Highly accurate, real-time and historical information can then drive global operational efficiency and help to gain a competitive advantage. OEE software solutions typically involve pre-built calculations, downtime analytics, and production scheduling; all of which combine to help ensure effective business processes. Real-time data can be aggregated from almost any data source through open, industry standard, secure protocols and displayed via an intelligent dashboard.
