In today’s competitive world market, manufacturers face more tough challenges and are pressured to find ways for
productivity improvement wherever possible in the entire supply chain. To give competition to other business under the current
global situation, a company needs to reduce or eliminate the idle and downtime of operations and improve the current working
methods. Improve profit is the primary goal of any manufacturing industry. The successes of the sector depend on its
productivity. This productivity decreases because of deficiency in previous standard time for activities carried out by
operators/labours, non-value-added activities involved and the ineffective methods, and imbalance in the material flow. This
paper highlights a methodology developed for standardization in the process activities in different production industries and
research and development departments using Maynard’s Operation Sequence Technique. (MOST) Due to high uncertainty in
demand, it is challenging to meet the demand with existing supply. In this situation, industrial engineering (IE) techniques are
used to resolve the existing manufacturing situation and identify the potential for increased productivity. MOST (Maynard
Operation Sequence Technique) is a good work measurement technique that allows better productivity and Resource
Optimization. The main objective of the MOST method is to reduce the work content and improve the productivity of the process.

What is time Study?
M aynard O peration S equence T echnique (MOST ® ) Considered a revolutionary Predetermined Motion Time System(PMTS) Developed by Kjell Zandin and H. B. Maynard and Company, Inc. in 1974 MOST ® times represent ranges of motions. Very accurate results are produced because ranges are statistically derived. Based on Methods Time Measurement(MTM).
Sequence Model and Terminology Activity Sequence Model Parameter General Move A B G A B P A A= Action Distance B= Body Motion G= Gain control P= Placement Controlled Move A B G M X I A M= Move Controlled X= Process Time I= Alignment Tool Use A B G A B P A B P A F= Fasten L= Loosen C= Cut S= Surface Treat M= Measure R= Record T= Think
General Move The general move sequence model is: A B G A B P A Action Distance(A) Body Motion(B) Gain Control(G) Placement(P) Index values for the General Move in Basic MOST
Controlled Move The controlled move sequence model is: A B G M X I A Move Controlled(M) Process time(X) Alignment(I) Index values for the Controlled Move in Basic MOST
Tool Use The controlled move sequence model is: A B G A B P A B P A The other parameters in tool use are: Fasten(F), Loosen(L), Cut(C), Surface Treat(S), Measure(M), Record(R), Think(T) Index values for the Tool Use Action Move in Basic MOST
Methodology Shadow an lobour throughout the shift to understand the flow and the work. Map all micro activities carried out by labour in detail Assign the standard timings to each activity as per PMTS Measure the work and Derive standard work content for the entire process Understand the different losses & derive the utilization Identify opportunity for improvements.
Time Unit Used in Most A typical MOST work sequence code would look like this: A 10 B 6 G 3 A 6 P 3 A Step – 1 Adds up all the subscript numbers 10+6+3+6+3+0= 28 (the subscript is the MOST index value) Step – 2 multiple the sum of the index by 10. This answer gives the TMU equivalent 28 x 10 = 280 TMU Step – 3 Convert to time in seconds 280U *0.036 seconds = 10.08 seconds. 1 TMU= 0.00001 Hour 1 Hour= 100,000 TMU 1 TMU= 0.0006 Minute 1 Minute= 1667 TMU 1 TMU= 0.036 Second 1 Second= 27.8 TMU

Improvement They can start their work earlier without wasting time They should sort their material in store room for ease of finding them The distance should be less between machine and storage if possible Less time should take for discussion and phone calls i.e. clocked activities
