Manufacturing Performance Indicators

Indicateurs de performance manufacturiers

Description

In the current competitive environment, continuous improvement is the key to success. However, to really improve, you must first know yourself (and know the business environment too, obviously). In practice, therefore, it is necessary to define the organization’s situation.

For this, it is necessary to put in place good measurement tools. Good performance indicators provide information on the organization’s current situation and act as benchmarks that will guide and monitor the company’s progress on the road to improvement. These measures enable identification of the organization’s strengths and weaknesses, and thus the areas where intervention is needed in order to make the company more competitive.

Target audience

All managers and administrators who must direct administration, management, operations or production processes and who want to achieve the specific objectives of the business or organization.
