Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the first in The One-Day Expert series dedicated to Standardized Work, is about operator performance measurement. Implementing Standardized Work: Measuring Operators’ Performance explains how to measure the performance of operators quickly and simply without sacrificing accuracy. Detailing how to identify the most efficient operators and how to monitor their improvement over time, it describes a method that has been applied with success for years in the automotive industry. Grounded in one of the basic laws of factory physics—mastery of variability—this method can be automated very easily and thereby requires no labor consumption. In this episode of The One-Day Expert, Thomas, a plant director in an industrial group, is reassigned to another plant that is losing money. Morale in the plant is very low and the staff is pessimistic about the plant’s future and is distrustful of senior management. Thomas’ urgent mission is to turn the plant around. Previous plant managers have tried several initiatives with limited results. To face these challenges, Thomas has decided to use Standardized Work deployment to achieve quick and visible results while rebuilding a real team. This book recounts these initial steps of the Standardized Work deployment. It explains how to find and apply the best operational method that will lead to cost reductions, better product quality, and increased operator safety. Additional steps will be detailed in forthcoming books in the series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the theory, structure, and implementation of a performance measurement processor (written in FORTRAN IV) that can accept performance demonstration data representing various levels of operator's skill and, under user control, analyze data to provide candidate performance measures and validation test results. The processor accepts two types of information: (1) Sample performance data on magnetic tape, and (2) User information reflecting knowledge about features of the performance that are considered to be important to measurement. The sample performance data input is smoothed by the processor in order to remove or reduce noise factors in accordance with information provided by the user. Criterion performance functions are, optionally, provided by the user or are computed by the processor using skilled performers' data. The processor then develops a discrete representation of the continuous performance data based on observed deviations from the criterion functions. Candidate performance measures are generated by operating on the vectors with multiple regression algorithms. Empirical validation tests of several types are applied to the candidate measures for assessment of their validity-likelihood. The processor can be applied to measurement problems where the human operator working with his equipment obtains demonstrations of various levels of performance. These potential applications include those situations where criterion performance cannot be quantitatively predefined and/or the existing definitions are ambiguous.
