About the Training

Why OEE?

OEE combines availability, performance and quality into a single metric to reveal the true effectiveness of equipment. World-class plants place OEE at the centre of their management system.

3 Core components: Availability, Performance and Quality
6 Major loss categories: Breakdowns, setup, minor stops and more
%85 The world-class OEE target level — most plants run below 60%
0 Unplanned downtime and quality losses that stay invisible without data-driven management
Curriculum

Program Content

From OEE fundamentals to loss analysis, and from data management to integrating OEE into the KPI system, the training covers every step with hands-on exercises.

01 OEE Fundamentals

  • What is OEE and why is it a critical KPI?
  • The Availability, Performance and Quality components
  • World-class OEE levels
  • The logic of calculating OEE by line
  • An overall framework of the factors affecting OEE

02 Loss Analysis

  • The 6 Big Losses: breakdowns, setup, minor stops and so on
  • Classifying losses correctly
  • Loss visibility by line
  • Interpreting loss data
  • Identifying priority improvement areas

03 Data Management

  • Sound data collection methods
  • Manual vs digital data systems
  • The logic of OEE reporting and dashboards
  • Data reliability and recording standards
  • The operator and line supervisor data flow

04 OEE & the Management System

  • Where OEE sits within the KPI system
  • The OEE → Kaizen → Action link
  • Integration with daily management (Asakai)
  • Line manager and operator roles
  • The OEE-focused continuous improvement cycle

Outcomes

By the End of the Training, Participants…

Participants who complete the training can use OEE not just as a metric but as a management tool that makes losses visible and turns them into action.

Can Calculate OEE Correctly

Applies the standard formula at equipment and line level and calculates each component separately.

Analyses Losses Systematically

Recognises the 6 big loss categories on the floor, classifies them correctly and prioritises them.

Interprets Data and Takes Action

Can read OEE data and determine the right improvement actions.

Identifies Improvement Opportunities on the Floor

Identifies and reports actionable improvement opportunities for raising efficiency.
