Our factories today are picking up steam. As a result, companies are looking for ways to improve performance-to-schedule. The rate of on-time delivery coupled with measurement of actual unit cost compared to planned unit cost, are critical Key Performance Indicators (KPI) for the success and profitability of the manufacturing operation. This paper addresses several critical factors in achieving on time delivery and unit cost targets. It all starts with better planning. http://www.mentor.com/pcb-manufacturing-assembly/techpubs/download/?id=68919&cmpid=6610
