You know where your process stands and where it can go before the first measure starts

The target state calculator in LeanShift calculates 14 process KPIs, including OEE, takt time, cycle time, throughput time, and productivity. It takes your inputs and the times of a linked recording. This gives you an instant view of where your process stands and where it can go.

Benefits

14 KPIs, Automatically

OEE, takt time, cycle time, throughput time, productivity, SWIP, and 8 more, calculated from your inputs and the times of a linked recording.

Actual-vs-Target Comparison

Compare the current state with the target state and see at a glance where the biggest gaps are.

Run Scenarios

What if? Play through different target states and find the one that gets you furthest.

Save Snapshots

Save state snapshots and compare them over time. Make progress visible.

How It Works

1

Capture Process Data

Measure cycle times and process steps with the stopwatch.

2

Enter Parameters

Available working time, customer demand, shift model, scrap rate.

3

Calculate KPIs

All 14 metrics are calculated and visualized automatically.

4

Define the Target State

Set improvement goals and plan the path to get there.

Use Cases

  • -Calculating the OEE of a machine or line
  • -Checking takt time compliance
  • -Quantifying improvement potential
  • -Building a business case for improvement measures
  • -Documenting progress over several months

Frequently Asked Questions

Which 14 KPIs does the calculator compare?

Employees per day, net working time, customer takt, planned cycle time, NWZZ, total assembly time, assembly time per piece, setup time per day, disruption time per day, productivity, SWIP, throughput time, OEE, and utilization, each as actual and target side by side.

Do I need all the data at once?

No. You can enter data step by step. The more data, the more precise the calculation, but even with a few values you get useful results.

Can I compare different scenarios?

Yes, one after another. Snapshots save the current state under a name. You load as many scenarios as you like and compare them that way. The calculator does not show two scenarios side by side.
