We have a factory assembly process called NETGEAR assembly.

We observed 96 cycles of this process being performed during 10 am on 6 February 2023 and 5 pm on 10 February 2023.

The average cycle time for the process was 223 seconds, whereas the expected cycle time is 100 seconds. The worker performed the activity with a 30.22% value add percentage, which means that only 30.22% of each cycle was spent on adding actual value to the product. The operator was able to finish 31% of the number of cycles expected of them for this duration.

We list the cycle times and corresponding number of cycles along the columns in the following table. All times are in seconds.
