Cascadia Surgical — Production Schedule Performance

Simulated data

Cascadia Surgical, its two plants and every number on this page are simulated; scored against the schedule frozen at the planning fence. It is a purpose-built synthetic factory with planted measurement traps to find.

What to look for
  • A six-week year-end push that built its total units and missed a seventh of its mix
  • A machining cell whose number improves by more than ten points on the week-end re-cut alone
  • A packaging line down for three January weeks, then overbuilding through February — a netted quarter shows neither
  • Five of forty-eight items carrying half the year’s shortfall units
  • An item built in eight weeks its frozen schedule never asked for, earning no capped credit at all
  • Two quarter-scheduled holiday weeks that lift the averaged attainment figure two points above the pooled one
  • On Quality & Rework: a required order that never ran, an inspection correction that arrived after the capture cutoff and does not apply, and a rolled yield withheld because two routes are in scope
  • On Capacity & Time Loss: one Friday recorded twice by two sources, one recorded by neither, a still-open interval, and a composite withheld because its quality factor has not settled
