5.0 out of 5 stars
MOST EASY METHOD,
By Garry Fowell (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Most Work Measurement Systems: Basic Most, Mini Most, Maxi Most (Industrial Engineering) (Hardcover)
Having been an Industrial Engineer and Management Consultant for many years I am allways sceptical when a "new" tecnique is launched. It was in this frame of mind that I approached MOST. What a revelation, not new as such as it is based on the original tried and trusted MTM system, however it is a fresh approach, and a welcome one at that! Here is a system which is statisticaly accurate, quick to apply,and easy to understand. More importantly it encourages method development and improvement. As a recommendation I would encourage everyone in this field of operation to read this book and consider its application. I did and have just completed the approved training and certification course.
5.0 out of 5 stars

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: MOST Work Measurement Systems, 3rd Edition (Textbook Binding)
I was seeking the method to measure the disassembly time. I found out that MOST provides the information and guides of how to measure the motion analysis related to the assembly and disassembly. I think that this books is a good reference for the industrial practitioners.
