Understanding Throughput Metrics
Core Concepts
- •Throughput: Number of items completed per time unit
- •Little's Law: CT = WIP ÷ Throughput relationship
- •WIP Limit: Maximum work items in progress
- •Cycle Time: Time from start to completion
Flow Optimization
- •Reduce WIP to improve cycle times
- •Maintain sustainable throughput rates
- •Monitor and address bottlenecks quickly
- •Use statistical process control for stability
