# Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) **OEE** is a manufacturing metric that measures how effectively equipment is utilized. It's calculated by multiplying three factors: **OEE = Availability × Performance × Quality** - **Availability**: Percentage of scheduled time the equipment is actually operating - **Performance**: How fast the equipment runs compared to its ideal speed - **Quality**: Percentage of good parts produced (without defects) An OEE of 85% is considered world-class, while many manufacturers operate around 60%. ## Common Misconception **"Higher OEE is always better"** Many believe maximizing OEE to 100% should be the goal, but this is misleading. Pursuing extremely high OEE can lead to: - **Overproduction** (making products not needed by customers) - **Neglected preventive maintenance** (avoiding planned downtime) - **Ignoring improvement opportunities** (focusing on the metric rather than actual efficiency) OEE should be optimized within the context of customer demand and overall business goals, not simply maximized. The real value of OEE is in identifying losses and improvement opportunities, not achieving a perfect score.
