Process Velocity is a measure of performance

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Find the Total throughout time and value-added time

  2. Step 2

    Plug the above values in formula below

    Process Velocity=Total throughput time/value-added time

  3. Step 3

    Sample Problem:

    Process Velocity= 5 weeks x 5 days x 7 hours a day/ 4 hours a day=43.75

    which means that it takes 43.75 times as long to complete the product as it does to do the actual work on the product itself. The lower it is, the better.
