Q:
How is Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) calculated in Lean Six Sigma?
OEE measures manufacturing productivity by multiplying:
OEE = Availability × Performance × Quality.
World-Class manufacturing targets 85% or higher.
100% In-Browser Execution — Zero Server Storage.

The Three OEE Factors & Six Big Losses
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) provides the benchmark metric for Lean TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) and Six Sigma DMAIC projects.
It isolates downtime losses into Availability, speed losses into Performance, and scrap/rework into Quality.

Availability: Operating Time / Planned Production Time
Performance: (Total Parts Run × Ideal Cycle Time) / Operating Time
Quality: Good Parts / Total Parts Run
