solution.oee()
OEE is often measured but not reduced: the number is visible but downtime classification is coarse, causes are not linked to actions and the operational loop does not close.
Downtime is grouped under generic buckets ("failure", "setup") that do not tell real causes apart, making any later analysis pointless.
A structured cause tree shared by operator, maintenance and process is needed — otherwise OEE stays a decorative number.
Root-cause analysis only happens on major events and does not link causes to corrective actions: the same losses reappear on following shifts.
Each analysis must produce a tracked, measurable action: the loop must close on the floor, not in month-end reports.
Line leaders see the numbers in weekly or monthly meetings: too late to act on losses that happen every shift.
A short per-shift routine (open priorities, ongoing actions, effectiveness check) is what turns OEE from metric into operational lever.
OEE calculation setup: planned time, standard speed, quality criteria for each machine.
PLC connection to automatically detect machine states, piece counts and scrap.
Real-time dashboard with OEE, Six Big Losses breakdown and historical trends.
Automatic notifications on critical thresholds and workflow for recording causes and corrective actions.
The solution is built to move the department from “seeing the number” to “knowing what to do next”.
Context capture, loss review and linkage to measurable corrective actions.
Shift-based view, open priorities and control over the effectiveness of executed interventions.
Downtime tree, root-cause loop, daily management — from number to closed action.
