A process for optimizing a manufacturing line comprises determining work center raw processing times of a plurality of work centers in the manufacturing line, summing the work center raw processing times to produce a manufacturing line raw processing time, determining work center cycle times of the work centers, dividing the work center cycle times by respective ones of the work center raw processing times to produce work center X-factors, weighting each of the work center X-factors by a percentage that a corresponding one of the work center raw processing times represents of the manufacturing line raw processing time to produce X-factor contributions for each of the work centers and modifying at least one work center of the work centers having an X-factor contribution higher than others of the X-factor contributions to reduce the X-factor contribution of the at least one work center.
