Diagnostic Charts for Aerospace Productivity Improvement

Abstract

The definition and measurement of Productivity are controversial subjects so an outline of some of the problems that arise and the definitions that are generally considered to be most acceptable will not be out of place as an introduction. Productivity is a ratio of an output to input; it is therefore somewhat akin to the engineering concept of efficiency, but unfortunately without the accompanying rigour of definition of input and output in energy terms.
