Determining the Frequency of Assistive Device Use
The first step is to determine how often an auxiliary is used on average per day.
A
Motion-Mining®
Motion-Mining® can be used to record how often the area of an assistive device is visited or the dynamic beacon of the assistive device is used.
B
Process Observation and Time Recording
In a process observation, the frequency can be recorded with the help of a tally sheet or a corresponding app.
C
WMS Data Analysis
Some tools, such as a wrapping machine in order picking, usually have to be used for every order. Based on the orders per employee and day, it is possible to estimate how often a tool is used per employee per day.
2
Identify Additional Paths to the Special Process Area
In addition to the time spent in the auxiliary area, a special process also causes non-essential paths to the respective area. The paths can also be determined in various ways.
A
Motion-Mining®
As part of a Motion-Mining® project, special processes such as driving/walking into the area can be created separately. This allows the total effort for the special process to be determined.
B
Measure the layout
An approximation of the distance can be achieved by determining the average paths in the layout. In the next step, the average path length must then be multiplied by the speed of the vehicle/person.
3
RoI Calculation
The potential savings depend on the chosen solution. Depending on whether the frequency of use and/or the distance to the aid is reduced, it is necessary to calculate how much time can be saved per person per day. The total potential is the savings per person per day multiplied by the number of working days and people per year. This is compared to the cost of the measure.
