Factory Utilisation
Known as plant loading or utilisation, considers the proportion of calendar time that has been scheduled for production (run time).

Factory Availability
Known as plant efficiency, considers the relationship between actual productive time and the planned busy time of the equipment. Factory availability shows the aggregated availability based on your resources.

Factory Performance
Known as plant effectiveness, compares the actual run rate produced by the plant with the planned run rate. Factory performance shows the aggregated availability based on your resources (employee or equipment).

Factory Quality
Known as the plant quality ratio, is the relationship between the good quantity and the total quantity produced. Factory performance shows the aggregated output quality based on your resources (employee or equipment). To determine the quality ratio a production quantity must be reported.

Calculation

Scheduled Hours / Calendar Hours

Measure

It is measured as a percentage (%). The higher the percentage the better.

Report(s)

Loading shows the planned plant utilisation with comparisons to last month and last quarter. It also provides insight as to why plant utilisation is not 100%.
