MiniMOST® CERTIFICATION PROGRAM

TRAINING COURSE

COURSE SUMMARY:

This five-day interactive training course will teach you how to apply the MiniMOST® work measurement system to measure work for short-cycle, highly repetitive, identical motion pattern activities.

COURSE OBJECTIVES: (by the end of this course you will be able to)

• Calculate the time that a task or set of tasks should take to be performed.
• Apply predetermined time values to activities from memory or from a data card according to the rules of MiniMOST.
• Observe operator activities and write accurate method descriptions considering different motion combinations.
• Analyze work on the basis of moving objects using the MiniMOST system.
• Identify activities in terms of the two sequence models for manual work: General Move and Controlled Move.
• Measure the distance of the hand, fingers, foot, leg, body motions, object movement and hand rotation to establish the correct index values.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:

Anyone interested in learning an efficient and widely accepted work measurement system.

KEY COURSE CONTENT:

    Understand the foundation of work measurement

• Learn why measuring work is important to an organization.
• Learn about the history of work measurement from time study to MOST®.

• General Move - for the movement of an object freely through the air.
• Controlled Move - for the movement of an object when it remains in contact with a surface or is attached to another object during movement.
• Learn how to document work for two-handed activities.
• Apply the sequence models in practice exercises and video examples.

• Learn how to use the software to measure work more quickly.

BENEFITS TO YOUR ORGANIZATION WHEN YOU TAKE THIS COURSE:

• Enables you to analyze any type of manual work with one of the most efficient and widely used work measurement techniques.
• Reduces the time needed to analyze work as MOST can be applied ten times faster than the conventional predetermined motion time systems for short-cycle work.
• Provides you with a tool that is ‘method sensitive’ where the outcome of the analysis provides cues as to where there are opportunities for saving time, money and energy.
• Eliminates the subjectivity involved in performance rating an activity since the MOST technique is based on a 100% pace.
• Meets the needs of many industries and is well accepted by employees, unions and management.
