As manufacturing has gone global and the market are getting more competitive every manufacturing facility must improve its process to remain competitive. To maintain and develop their ability to compete in a global market, production companies as an example semiconductor industry need to be effective in producing innovative and short lead times with high quality products and designing strong and flexible manufacturing system that provide the best preconditions for operational excellence. There are many approaches have been established to support the development of production processes, but Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) is the best practices to monitor and improve the production process. Therefore, OEE chosen as a viable approach for this project to calculate the competence of the production testers of XYMicroelectronics Sdn.Bhd.The OEE trends show that there are some issues and problems faced by the production that cause the operating testers do not achieve the targeted productivity level. It is identified that the OEE of test department drop due to the frequent downtime of the machines. Downtime is one of the biggest culprits for bringing down a plant’s OEE because it can take a huge of time out of our planned production time.
