Key Performance Indicators of week 47
Boxcount 154.237 (+1674)
MPB 8.72 (+0.04)
Errors 1.15% (+0.08)
Boxcount 2806 (-135)
MPB 7.97 (-0.84)
Errors. 1.01% (+0.35)
Boxcount 6674 (-107)
MPB 1.76 (-0.01)
*Week 43's high error rate is due to a production prep incident. At assembly, RTH menus 68 and 69 (salmon penne and beef burger) were accidentally switched all week due to a mistake in the "RTH Overview" printout. As a result, all customers received the other meal and had to be compensated. This bulk upload accounts for 0.7% of the error rate (~950 customers).
**The numbers between the parenthesis () are comparisons with last box week.
***For MPB calculation splitted boxcount is used. Hours of sick leave and vacation, as well as hours of seniors on the shop floor and technical department hours are not taken into account
