TIMES AND MOVEMENTS
AviX Methods is a Times and Motion software that uses standard stopwatch or MTM-based times like MTM-UAS or MTM-SAM.
It eases the process of analyzing work-operations and creating basic data for balancing resources, compute or apply audits to cycle times and efficiently determine standard times.
A simple and fast method of analysis provides detailed information on the times of individual work operations for work-cells or complete production lines.
The given standard times can be used for improvement work, capacity calculations and as a basis for resource-management decision making.
Time and Movements study is a business efficiency technique combining the Time Study work of Frederick Winslow Taylor with the Motion Study work of Frank and Lillian Gilbreth. It is a major part of scientific management (Taylorism). After its first introduction, time study developed in the direction of establishing standard times, while motion study evolved into a technique for improving work methods.Wikipedia - Zandin 2001 - Price, B 1989 Frank and Lillian Gilbreth and the Manufacture and Marketing of Motion Study, 1908-1924’, Business and Economic History, vol. 18, no. 2.
