Software measures overall equipment effectiveness
OEE Toolkit - practical software for measuring overall equipment effectiveness - is an easy to use software application for measuring overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
For over twenty years, Productivity has been teaching the elements of lean manufacturing through consulting, training and publishing.
They were the first to translate the original Japanese source materials and make lean materials available to the Western world.
LeanSpeak takes this knowledge and places it in a context that is easily accessed by manufacturers.
Entries in LeanSpeak are arranged alphabetically and are cross-referenced to other terms to show how they all link together.
It is ideal for anyone who is just wondering what lean manufacturing is all about and for those who have already begun to implement lean.
By standardising a common language for lean, LeanSpeak eliminates the "waste of miscommunication." "LeanSpeak: the productivity business improvement dictionary" is available through American Technical Publishers and sells for GBP 12.00.
