The Impact

With the fuel prices going up and many states mandating use of more renewable energy, a number of utilities are forced to convert some of their base loaded units to cycling operation. This change in operation requires a departure from the standard maintenance practices established for a given unit. This includes changes to Preventative Maintenance (PM), Predictive Maintenance (PdM), Planning and Scheduling and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). When a unit is cycled — either minimum load to maximum load or two shift operation — it goes through stress cycles and its expected life decreases relative to the severity of cycling. When a decision is made to cycle a base loaded unit, the impact of the cycling has to be analyzed and the PM and PdM procedures need to be modified in order to maintain the expected life of the components. Cycling affects different components to different degrees and appropriate inspection and maintenance schedules need to be developed. The Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) have to be modified to monitor the effectiveness of the inspections and maintenance performed on the equipment. For example, Maintenance Basis Violation (MBV) is an important KPI for a cycling unit. Similarly, more attention has to be paid to the Planning and Scheduling activities as there are many uncertainties in the availability of the unit for preventative maintenance. The paradigm of performing PMs on a time basis should be changed to a throughput or hours of operation basis. This paper reviews the impact and severity of different cycling modes on a unit, vulnerability of common components adapting to the new mode, and discusses — in general terms — the required changes which need to be made in the inspection and maintenance practices. Also the paper reviews various KPIs that can be put in place for monitoring the impact of these procedures.

Inventory theory and supply chain management have become important to small businesses in order to improve an organization’s competitive strength and survival. The rapid growth of small businesses of late has seen them to face a challenge in managing their inventory effectively and efficiently. A study was carried out in F.E. (Private) limited a pioneer in distribution of electrical equipments based in Chennai, whose two major challenges were, stock-out and excess stock due to uncertainty in demand. The organization wanted to develop its performance and overall efficiency by considering a change in the inventory policy. The main aim of this research is to attain operational excellence through inventory management and measure its effectiveness using critical key performance indicators. A new inventory policy was developed to improve the inventory turns and measure its performance after implementing the new inventory policy. The results revealed that the implementation of new inventory policy helped to save over Rs. 2.25 lakhs per month in terms of total inventory carrying cost to the selected organization.

Operational Excellence

The footwear industry has contributed notably to different countries’ economic development. Therefore, it needs to focus on operational excellence in order to achieve a sustainable level of development. Achieving sustainability in the footwear industry, however, is a complex task since various issues are involved in the footwear manufacturing process. Currently, in order to see how firms can sustain their place in the competitive global business environment, researchers and practitioners are giving special attention to operational excellence in the footwear manufacturing industry. Operational excellence is a business term that indicates the actual performance of an organization. To make the supply chain agile, resilient, and sustainable, it is imperative that firms incorporate sustainable practices in the footwear industry, and operational excellence can help in this regard. The sustainability of the footwear industry can be examined by using a set of key performance indicators (KPIs). Therefore, identifying and examining the KPIs for adopting sustainable practices in the footwear supply chain is a very important task. There is still a knowledge gap in research on the KPIs for attaining sustainability in the footwear industry. To fill in this knowledge gap, this study contributes to the existing literature by identifying and assessing the KPIs by using a novel multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method named the best-worst method (BWM). This study uses a previous study to identify some relevant KPIs, some of which were included in the assessment process based on footwear industry experts’ feedback. After finalizing the relevant KPIs, BWM was utilized to find the most important KPIs for adopting sustainability practices in the footwear industry’s supply chains. The findings of this study reveal that the KPIs “quality production”, “timely order processing” and “accuracy of moulding” received the first three positions in the rankings we performed. The results of this study will help practitioners, industry experts, and decision-makers to find out a pathway for easily adopting sustainability practices in the footwear supply chains.

SQL Server Reporting Services is a way to analyze data, create reports using the indicators and gauges. Indicators are minimal gauges that convey the state of a single data value at a glance, and most are used to represent the state of Key Performance Indicators. Manage and harmonize the performance of an institution's educational institutions, especially universities with the performance of individuals or resources, no doubt is one of the essential elements for the success of an entity of the institution. Integrate the performance of an educational institution with individual performance is not an easy process, and therefore required a systematic approach to manage it. Implementation of a strategic management system based Balanced Scorecard can be used as a performance measurement system that will continuously monitor the successful implementation of the strategy of any public educational institution and measure the performance of its resources in a comprehensive and balanced, not the quantity but the emphasis is more concerned with the quality, so the performance of educational institutions at any time can be known clearly. Contribution of Key Performance Indicators to manage and harmonize the performance of any public institution is a solution in providing information to realize the extent of work that has set targets, identify and monitor measures of success, of course, with performance indicators show a clear, specific and measurable.

Three levels of planning can be distinguished in grassland farming: strategic, tactical and operational. The purpose of strategic planning is to achieve a sustainable long-term fit of the farm business with its physical, social and financial environment. In pastoral farming, this essentially means developing plans that maximise and best match pasture growth with animal demand, while generating sufficient income to maintain or enhance farm resources and improvements, and attain personal and financial goals. Strategic plans relate to the whole farm business and are focused on the means to achieve future needs. They should be routinely (at least annually) reviewed and monitored for effectiveness through key performance indicators (e.g., Economic Farm Surplus) that enable progress toward goals to be measured in a timely and cost-effective manner. Failure to link strategy with control is likely to result in unfulfilled plans. Keywords: management, performance
