Develop Manual-to-Automation Alternatives and Phased Migration Plans Grounded in Observed Baseline Performance

Analytical Methods & Quantitative Decision Support

Work sampling, observation planning, sample-size calculations and confidence intervals provide a basis for labor standards and staffing models. Clear activity definitions make comparisons repeatable across shifts and facilities. Worker-machine analysis, line balancing, standard work and automation alternatives connect measured work content with an improved operating method.
