KPI / Calculating Real Production Time

Support, Troubleshooting, & Help

Hello,

I am trying to calculate the real production time of a Work Order in Tulip Analytics.

The production process includes a drying period and the production line only operates from 07:30 to 16:30, meaning there are 15 hours per day when the application is not running.

My objective is to calculate the effective production time in minutes, excluding:

  • the drying period

  • the daily non-working hours

Currently, I am using the following formula:

I am also using Process Cycle Time in my analysis, but I am not sure what it exactly represents.

Does Process Cycle Time correspond to the time the operator is connected to the application for the Work Order, or only the duration between steps or completions?

My goal is to ensure I am using the correct metric to measure the actual production time per Work Order.

Any recommendations on the best approach in Tulip Analytics would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Process Cycle Time references a legacy feature where apps had a predetermined cycle time. Instead, I think you want to use (End Time - Start Time) which should similarly produce an interval you can convert to seconds.

Happy Tulip-ing!
