		<description><![CDATA[Since writing the series of posts about calculating OEE, I&#8217;ve been thinking about how you can best use OEE data to drive improvements in throughput and profitability.
Recently I showed this OEE Dashboard to a customer.
He said to me,
&#8220;Evan, this is exactly what I&#8217;m looking for. Today we&#8217;re collecting OEE data on paper and in spreadsheets. [...]]]></description>

I got to thinking about that idea after reading Industry Week&#8217;s cover story on OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness). The IW story discusses the benefits of OEE, and even gives [...]]]></description>

Adapt OEE to your business situation
Use the OEE data to drill in and drive improvements
Don&#8217;t optimize OEE at the expense of the business

These ideas point to why GainSeeker Suite is getting so much traction [...]]]></description>
