Let me give a short example of an experience.
A client (R&D department) of us wanted to improve the due date performance. We did an analysis with our software FLOW MPM and the conclusion was the following:
- The most loaded resource group assumed a capacity of 4 man-hours per hour (5 men).
- FLOW* calculated a workload of 11 man-hours per hour. Way too much.
- And the output* of this group was 2.3 man-hours per hour,
The output is the actual capacity in this circumstance. By reducing the load to 6 man-hours per hour, the output went up automatically to 4.7 man-hours per hour. Why? Because the people in this group were able to focus on less projects.
End result. The lead-time dropped more than 70% and the finished projects doubled.
* coming from the tool FLOW MPM
