| fhnw.lead | This Bachelor Thesis provides an evaluation and analysis of the hardware costs occurring in the Mechanical Packaging Department of gas turbines power plants and demonstrates how to show them efficiently in a Performance Metrics. | |
| fhnw.initialPosition | The goal of this thesis is to improve the visibility of the hardware costs by showing any changes or adjustments as required by the work package engineers throughout the production process. The Metrics support the reporting of the on-going cost reduction process at the bottom level of the organization by hardware components that are required by the remaining responsible groups involved on the development of the product. | |
| fhnw.procedure | The first step in creating a performance metric is to choose a pilot group, alongside a scoring model to analyze the needs for the project. Next, the requirements for the cost analysis on various levels of the organization are defined. The application of target costing is taken into account. The Cost Analysis is based on four Elements - Standard Costs, Project Values, Cost Excellence and Supply Chain. Each element contains a research of possible sources, taking into account limitations. Data validation is prepared with a prioritization of the deviations for further clean up. | |
| fhnw.results | The metrics are predetermined to be explicit in its contents, enabling the engineers to fully understand all the elements. This is assured among other with carefully selected content and early performance indicators. Throughout the project, simplified metric updates ensure continuous information is provided to the respective engineers. The visualization of the metrics is provided in a waterfall chart and a color concept. The target costing theory cannot be applied to this target analysis, as the conditions of comprehensibility and innovation are not given.
The resources required to create a performance metrics are not to be underestimated. The development in excel computer program requires accurateness and the validation of the content need continuous updates from product experts. To ensure the full understanding of this analysis, detailed instructions are necessary. Using a pilot to create the performance metrics is useful, after validation of the final pilot chart by the different stakeholders, the chart can be copied for other groups. The cost analysis prepared can also be applied to create performance metrics for engineering costs and other department hardware costs. | |
