OEE reference.
Plain definitions and worked calculations for manufacturing performance, written so a plant manager can check them on paper. Every number carries its source, and every term means the same thing here as it does in the Augos platform.
How to use it
Start with the definition, then the calculation, then the benchmark. The glossary is for when a word in a report or a meeting needs pinning down. Where a page describes something Augos does differently from standard OEE, it says so and links to the method page that explains why.
Reference pages
What is OEE?
The definition, the three factors, the six big losses and who owns each one.
How to calculate OEE
Every formula, a full worked example from an eight-hour shift, and the common mistakes.
What is a good OEE?
The 85 / 60 / 40 benchmarks, where they come from, and why your own best shift is the better target.
Specific energy consumption
Energy per unit of output, the formula, a real month, and why a plant's base load makes the ratio mislead.
Fixed and variable energy
Base load and variable load separated by regression, two kinds of idle, CUSUM, and why the half hour matters.
Scope 1, 2 and 3 for a factory
What each scope covers, how measured energy per unit becomes a customer's Scope 3 input, and the South African context.
Glossary
The terms Augos uses, each defined in one sentence: from Availability to Stoppage Response Stages.
OEE+ calculator
Enter a shift's figures and get standard OEE plus an estimate of which owner holds the loss.
Common questions
Are these the same definitions the Augos platform uses?
Yes. Each page cites the canonical Augos method document it is drawn from, and the platform calculates OEE with the same formulas: Availability × Performance × Quality, with Availability measured against planned production time.
Why publish a reference at all?
Because OEE is calculated differently across plants and sites, which makes results incomparable. A public, sourced reference gives a plant one definition to align to, whether or not it uses Augos.
