Chapter 30: Standard Data • Reusing previously determined times to predict standard times for new operations. • E.g., predict cost of automotive repairs • Can be specialized for a particular industry, company, or process …
Advantages of Using Standard Data • Cost • Time study is expensive. • Standard data allows you to use a table or an equation. • Ahead of Production • The operation does not have to be observed. • Allows estimates to be made for bids, method decisions, and scheduling. • Consistency • Values come from a bigger database. • Random errors tend to cancel over many studies. • Consistency is more important than accuracy.
Disadvantages of Standard Data • Imagining the Task • The analyst must be very familiar with the task. • Analysts may forget rarely done elements. • Database Cost • Developing the database costs money. • There are training and maintenance costs.
Motions vs. Elements • Decision is about level of detail. • MTM times are at motion level. • An element system has a collection of individual motions. • Elements can come from an analysis, time studies, curve fitting, or a combination.
Constant vs. Variable • Each element can be considered either constant or variable. • Constant elements either occur or don’t occur. • Constant elements tend to have large random error. • Variable elements depend on specifics of the situation. • Variable elements have smaller random error.
Developing the Standard • Plan the work. • Classify the data. • Group the elements. • Analyze the job. • Develop the standard.
Curve Fitting • To analyze experimental data: • Plot the data. • Guess several approximate curve shapes. • Use a computer to determine the constants for the shapes. • Select which equation you want to use.
Statistical Concepts • Least-squares equation • Standard error • Coefficient of variation • Coefficient of determination • Coefficient of correlation • Residual
Curve Shapes Y independent of X • Y = A • Determine that Y is independent of X by looking at the SE.
10 8 6 4 2 [y] y=4 0 2 4 6 8 10 [x] Y Independent of X • If Y is not related to X (is independent of X), then Y=A, where A is constant.
Curve Shapes Y depends on X, 1 variable • Y = A + BX • Y = AXB • Y = AeBX • Y = A + BXn • Y = X / (A + BX) • Y = A + BX + CX2
Curve Shapes Y depends on X, multiple variables • Y = A + BX + CZ • Results in a family of curves
Equations for Walking • NOTE: see attached Excel sheet intercept = ______ slope = _________ r2 = _______ σ = __________ • Therefore, Walk time is computed as: t = __________________ • So, if a new task is added that requires walking 7.4 m, how long should be allowed in the standard?
Equations for Walk Data Set Walk time h = –.13 + .11 (loge Distance, m) r2 = .966 σ = .012 h 1/Walk time h = .24 – .96 (1/Distance, m) r2 = .881 σ = .021 h-1
