Bob Argyle of L2L discusses how numbers can be misleading.
"In the case of manufacturing, it is a common standard to measure plant productivity by looking at Overall Equipment Effectiveness or OEE. It is measured by looking at how effective a plant is running in the areas of availability, performance and quality. However, holding OEE as the primary metric of success for a plant can be problematic and even short sighted."
