The Underlying Metrics
In addition to the above measures, there are four underlying metrics that provide understanding as to why and where the OEE and TEEP gaps exist.
The measurements are described below:
- Loading: The portion of the TEEP Metric that represents the percentage of total calendar time that is actually scheduled for operation.
- Availability: The portion of the OEE Metric that represents the percentage of scheduled time that the operation is available to operate. Often referred to as Uptime.
- Performance: The portion of the OEE Metric that represents the speed at which the Work Center runs as a percentage of its designed speed.
- Quality: The portion of the OEE Metric that represents the Good Units produced as a percentage of the Total Units Started. Commonly referred to as First Pass Yield FPY.

Famous quotes containing the word underlying:
“Mothers seem to be in subtle competition with teachers. There is always an underlying fear that teachers will do a better job than they have done with their child.... But mostly mothers feel that their areas of competence are very much similar to those of the teacher. In fact they feel they know their child better than anyone else and that the teacher doesn’t possess any special field of authority or expertise.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
