Radhika, Sigma level is not required for this , this is productivity. Comparison of the units consumed to the last year , you should also compare the goods produced . if reqd you can identify the units wasted and they can be called as DPPM To keep it simple : Units consumed last year /Goods produced last year = Ratio Units consumed this year /Goods Produced this year =Ratio the Difference between them will yield the 5% negative or positive reqd. out of the subject: For Further information on Saving Electricity you can visit BEE.nic.in - Bureau of Energy Efficency india.

Hi , Productivity measurement can be done month on month, Quarter on Quarter and Year on Year , usually companies on A Eagle view give 5 to 10 % productivity Target Year on Year and the monitoring will be done Month on Month and Quarter on Quarter for progress review. For Ex: 2008 - SCOP - 14 M , Goods produced - 1M (volume) 2009 SCOP - 13M , Goods Prodcued - 1M (volume) Then productivity = ((14 - 13)/13)= 7.69% Savings in terms of Matl , Labour and overhead compared to last year costing standard. In simple , the Change in terms of financial value. The results of all the Lean and six sigma activities of the plant will lead to Productivity. Mainly Matl, Labour and overheads(Variable ) i have just shared what i am working on maharajan

Dear SJ, Could you explain "Taguchi loss function to characterize quality / cost" . briefly and where I can find more information on the above Regards, K.Maharajan

Hi, i would like to add a few things on the discussion on energy savings,or building a Six sigma project on that, I could not get the type of industry from the disucssion , but , if is a process industry opportunities and six sigma projects are unlimited . I am currently working on identifying the specific energy consumption of the plant . A starter would be to identify the loses , record the current energy conumption pattern, cell/layout/ machine wise and study the losses. For example if you use compressors, crushers, injection molding machines the opoortunities are more for more informations you can visit : Bureau of Energy Efficieny- bee.nic.in www.energymanagertraining.com/eca2008/AwardBooklet2008/18GeneralCategory.pdf
