Capacity Loss from Configuration Errors
Definition
In Engineer-to-Order processes, poor configuration management causes delays in design baselines and engineering changes, leading to idle production resources and lost throughput in manufacturing projects.[1]
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD 5,000-15,000 per delayed project (based on 20-40 hours engineering time at AUD 150/hr)
- Frequency: Per engineering project or modification cycle
- Root Cause: Manual handling of CM documentation, baselines, and status accounting without automated databases
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Industrial machinery manufacturers in Australia 🇦🇺 waste 20-40 hours/month per project on configuration rework. Automation of CM plans and status accounting eliminates this capacity loss.
