Advanced OEE use: line and plant roll-ups, OEE versus capacity and TEEP, loss accounting policy, cascading targets, analytics pitfalls, and linking OEE to constraint management. Strategic manufacturing metrics, not legal or financial advice.
Applying OEE in daily operations: mapping losses to availability, performance, and quality; changeovers; micro-stops; ideal cycle time governance; and common data traps. Manufacturing metrics practice, not vendor certification.
Foundations of Overall Equipment Effectiveness: the three factors (availability, performance, quality), basic formulas, planned production time, and reading simple OEE results. Manufacturing metrics, not machine-specific vendor training.
Strategic and tactical capacity under constraints: TOC drum-buffer-rope, investment timing, mixed-model loading, yield and scrap in load, finite scheduling interactions, and multi-site capacity balancing. Mix of single-answer and multiple-answer items; multi-select questions ask you to select every correct statement.
Capacity Requirements Planning, finite versus infinite loading trade-offs, bottleneck focus, level loading, alternate routings, and reconciling overload with MPS and shop reality. Mix of single-answer and multiple-answer items; multi-select questions ask you to select every correct statement.
Foundations of manufacturing capacity: rated vs available hours, load versus capacity, work centers, utilization, and how MRP output connects to capacity checks. Mix of single-answer and multiple-answer items; multi-select questions ask you to select every correct statement.
Advanced MRP: closing the loop with capacity and suppliers, planning BOMs, co-products, DRP handoffs, forecast consumption, and stabilizing plans under uncertainty. Mix of single-answer and multiple-answer items; multi-select questions ask you to select every correct statement.
Intermediate MRP: lot-sizing rules, regenerative versus net-change processing, planning fences, pegging, phantoms, scrap factors, and reading action messages. Mix of single-answer and multiple-answer items; multi-select questions ask you to select every correct statement.
Core Material Requirements Planning ideas: master schedule linkage, BOM explosion, inventory netting, lead-time offsetting, and acting on planned orders. Mix of single-answer and multiple-answer items; multi-select questions ask you to select every correct statement.
