Method and system for creating and managing engineered time standards

摘要

According to one embodiment of the invention, a computerized method for managing time standards includes receiving a set of work instructions associated with the manufacturing of a part and receiving an association of each work instruction of the set of work instructions with one or more of a plurality of time standard templates. Each time standard template includes a task associated with the manufacturing of the part at a task center, one or more variables associated with the task, one or more variables associated with the task center, and an algorithm operable to determine a time value associated with the task. The time value represents a time period to complete the task. The computerized method further includes receiving a change to one of the variables associated with the task, generating a plurality of time standards associated with the work instructions, and storing the time standards in a database.
