We're having a tough time being able to define a new objective we'd like to monitor/improve. Inventory accuracy is important to us, the customer, and our financial partners. We have began cycle counting and have limited data. Each day we count 5 different parts. After one week we have data on 25 parts; physical count vs. ERP count. How can we turn this into an objective? Do we go by % or dollar value?
I think dollar value.
If we count 1,000 o-rings and the system shows 1,250 o-rings, that's a discrepancy of 20%. However, that 20% equates to $2.50.
If we count 99 bodies and the system shows 100 bodies, that's a 1% error. However, that 1% equates to $50.00
O-rings are expendable; bodies are not. We should be more concerned about the bodies being correct rather than tiny o-rings that could fall between the cracks in the floor.
How should we monitor this and will it satisfy ISO 9001:2008 requirements?

Bryan
