Hey Sanjit! I do find OEE a good way to measure quality of process, efficiency of equipment and utilization in one figure which sums up everything you want to achieve in running highly automated equipment.

Hello!!! Friends I think that with staff shortages becoming an accepted way of life in most ofoperations, it is harder than ever to accomplish the important tasks with fewer people. Ultimately, lack of people could become the biggest bottleneck to production worldwide, making employee satisfaction and retention one of the most important areas of focus in the future. According survey statistics about worker satisfaction indicated that an improved work environment would increase staff retention and overall worker satisfaction. If companies are serious about increasing employee satisfaction and retention rates, they must be willing to address all the factors that make employees consider leavin...

The fierce native American tribe Lakota Sioux was made famous by the 7 times Academy Award winning movie ‘Dances with Wolves’ directed by Kevin Costner. Lakota Sioux tribals have an amazing way to teach their warriors how to think about competitors. They say you must always respect and honour your competitors. If you have disrespect or dishonour for your competitors, you cannot be a warrior in their tribe. Their idea their belief their conviction is, that competitors are there for us to improve. They believe, the creator has given us enough jewels buried inside us. Our competitors help us to unearth the jewels. These jewels will not be discovered unless we have competitors in our life. Only when competition is there, can our best come out. In the movie the hero John Dunbar played by Kevin Costner on becoming a part of the Lakota Sioux says, ‘It was hard to know how to feel. I had never been in a battle like this one. This had not been a fight for territory or riches. It was to...

My salutes to Mr Narayana Murthy and Mr Mashelkar! Today in Economic Times the brain storming article having same heading made me really excited and highly hopeful towards future of application of researches in science and technology in commercial field.As in my whole career I felt that its lagging too much in our country (except southern parts of India).Whatever researches are going on in big government institutes remain in journals and proceedings of seminars.Very few come up in application.While crores of rupees are spent every year by many funding sectors viz; UGC,CSIR,DBT and many more. Today after reading views of Mr Narayan Murthy and Mr Mashelkar I felt really supportive from their side as I have requested in many seminars and meetings about this innovation. Mr Narayan Murthy: What we really require is science,technology and innovation policy.Innovation is mind to market,concept to commercialisation.In the rest of the world you see that is happening.

CES 2012: The top 7 phones at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show By Barb Dybwad, Tecca | Today in Tech – It's all about Windows Phone and Android at this year's event Whereas last year's Consumer Electronics Show was all about Android , the surprise mindshare leader at CES 2012 is Microsoft's Windows Phone mobile operating system. After completely reinventing the artist formerly known as Windows Mobile in late 2010, the company fleshed out and polished up the OS with the current Windows Phone 7.5 iteration. Thanks to a $1 billion partnership with Finnish giant Nokia early last year, as well as strong continued partnerships with handset makers HTC Samsung, the Windows Phone ecosystem is set to finally come into its own in 2012. Despite not dominating the show floor to the extent it did last year, Google's Android mobile operating system nevertheless managed a strong showing at CES 2012. Motorola announced a brace of powerful smartphones with the Droid Razr Maxx and the Droid 4...

Planning nitty-gritty processes is a need to tame Inflation. Suppose if one go to an Office to get some work done, if the person is forced to go back many time to make his task achieved instead of just ones and in short time, huge bills get run in the form of transportation, fuel, food etc;. These are not optimal consumption pattern rather wasted consumption, for a function that can be achieved in a short while taking long time to complete. These extra consumption require unnecessary infrastructure and resources like extra manpower, extra road and transportation facilities. The extra manpower again creates suboptimal consumption where demand for goods and services gets inflated leading to price hikes and inflation. Suppose only optimal consumption through mandated performances in short while can nullify the extraconsumption component in an economy and can lead to optimal consumption and no inflation since wasted consumption and over demand for this is avoided. Take for example, in...
