Is there a simple way for untrained, inexperienced people to perform successful time study and work measurement?
No. Training and experience are necessary in order to recognize and deal with routine variations. Work measurement is a statistical process; operators to be studied have different training and skill; they will react differently. Only an experienced observer will be able to develop an accurate set of time values to define and quantify normal, expected operating times. 3. Can a consultant recognize the differences in operations? Yes, an experienced consultant can successfully apply work measurement techniques, which tend to be similar across different businesses, functions and technology. 4. What are the most important benefits from work measurement? a. Expectations. Work measurement quantifies objectively what is expected of an individual, or team, or work group, or process. b. Reporting. Reporting of actual performance compared to objective expectations provides a benchmark, an understanding of how an operation is doing, and a basis for planning any corrective action necessary. c.
