The best reference is the book, "Learning to See". My recommendation is to grab a copy of that and then post any specific questions you may have.

Up-time is associated with production equipment actually available and running and producing value-added work.

Hi
How to determine uptime? is there any link to utilization of a machine? and why do we need to include uptime in the VSM?

Thank you
