Estimate of OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) objective from classical OEE

Abstract

Today, the evaluation of the production systems' performance requires having an appropriate decision-making indicator and to fix its target. The lack of a method to set the target OEE, in accordance with the strategic objectives of the company, is a handicap to guide managers to achieve their individual performance. In this article, we propose a model, based on the method that allows comparison decision criteria pair determining the target of the OEE from the classic OEE. Therefore, this model allows to guide operational decision-makers (maintenance, production, quality,...) to better control their resources and achieve their objective. A case of study was conducted within the mineral water company oulmes (EMO) to test the proposed model. A comparison shows that the offered model provides sure, more definite and better results than the classical approach (based on experience feedback).
