OVERALL RESOURCE EFFECTIVNESS™

ORE™ was developed by the MAX Group in 1999 as an enhancement to the time honored Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) model developed in the 1980s by Saiji Nakajima. After numerous implementations of the OEE philosophy in semiconductors, aerospace, and biotech manufacturing environments, it became clear that it is not equipment alone that contributes to operational losses, but other resources and systems also play a role.
