Where I work, the math on the codes is simple. We are engineer to order. So:

- Level 0-0 is the trucks we build, and their demand comes from sales orders
- Level 1-0 is components of the trucks
- Level 2-0 is components of level 1-0
- 3-0 is components of 2-0 and so on
- Ours go down to… 8-0, I think?

I’ve run that low-level-code process but it has never mattered. It’s not that the process stinks; I imagine it is just fine. Our problem is that our production is very heavy at the top of this chain. So unless we were to change our whole shop flow to split our trucks into smaller jobs (we will not), then this will remain the case.

We don’t do production on Fridays, so this was a good apples-to-apples test since nothing really changed from one day to the next. Thursday night (control): 4:09 (4 hours and 9 minutes) Friday night (new setting): 4:29 Why? Our “level 0-0” jobs took longer to create, for some likely unrelated reason. Thursday night: Averagi…
