Productivity management 





Productivity management is a methodical approach to industrial engineering with the overall objective of controlling and improving productivity .  Productivity metrics (standards) are defined and collected in the context of productivity management. These form the basis for measuring and presenting productivity development over the long term.  In the event of deviations from the standard, countermeasures can be taken in good time. The operational improvement of productivity and the management-oriented collection of the results and analysis are linked by an iterative control loop .

In English literature,  Productivity Management in the context of Industrial Engineering was described in a publication by Sumanth. Besides approaches to improving productivity, the management process is described, which includes the steps of measurement, evaluation, planning . The process of productivity management is also described by  Sink  and includes the steps of planning, organizing , managing , controlling and adjusting . In Germany, productivity management was first considered in more detail in the publication at the beginning of the 1990s by. Dorner and Stowasser's Industrial Engineering Productivity Management model [4]. It identifies four key steps of the control loop:

Productivity planning with strategic and operational planning
Management-based control with organization, staffing and leadership
Implementation for productivity improvement with process design, control of personnel deployment, incident management and employee leadership
Productivity control with the target / actual comparison of the productivity indicator

The basics for collecting this measure of labor productivity required for controlling are shown in Bokranz and Landau [5] . Productivity management to track productivity is now being used successfully in many manufacturing companies. A comprehensive presentation of the introduction and application of a productivity management in a mechanical engineering company is described in practice by Sauter and von Killisch-Horn [6] . It mentions five modules for the concept of Productivity Management : the Objectives Module, the Methods Module, the Organization Module, the Shopfloor Module, and the Controlling and Change Management module. For productivity tracking, a productivity indicator is collected. This consists in the numerator of the production output multiplied by a weighting factor and the denominator of the total attendance hours of the employees. The default time is used as the weighting factor, which is determined using time-based industrial engineering methods. With regard to the introduction of industrial engineering productivity management in a company, Sauter and Killisch-Horn [6] listed the following steps:

Implementation of potential audits and review of work and time management
Target definition for the organizational structure
Organizational structure of the Industrial Engineering employees
Qualification of employees for work and time management
Implementation of methods and tools (eg MTM , REFA , Productivity Tracking Tool and Employment Accounting)
Securing work and time management and productivity management

  1. Your article is good. please provide more information of Industrial Engineering in Germany so that I can go for MS in Germany for Indian Students
