Detailed explanation-1: -What is Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency? Manufacturing cycle efficiency measures the proportion of production time spent on value-added activities. A business can use this information to pare away non value-added activities, thereby reducing costs and shortening the time required to manufacture a product.

Detailed explanation-2: -How to Calculate Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency? To calculate cycle efficiency, divide Value-Added Production Time by the Total Cyle Time. For reference, Total Cycle Time is the summation of all activities associated with the work on a unit from start to finish.

Detailed explanation-3: -The MCE is computed by relating the value-added time/ throughput time. • An MCE of less than 1 means the production process includes non-value added time.
