  2. Operational efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_efficiency

    An explanation of the difference between efficiency and (total factor) productivity is found in "An Introduction to Efficiency and Productivity Analysis". [1] To complicate the meaning, operational excellence , which is about continuous improvement, not limited to efficiency, is occasionally used when meaning operational efficiency.

  3. Energy conversion efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_conversion_efficiency

    The electrical energy input of this cell is 1.20 times greater than the theoretical minimum so the energy efficiency is 0.83 compared to the ideal cell. A water electrolysis unit operating with a higher voltage that 1.48 V and at a temperature of 25 °C would have to have heat energy removed in order to maintain a constant temperature and the ...

  4. Flight operations quality assurance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_Operations_Quality...

    The agency's Air Transportation Operations Inspector's Handbook (FAA Order 8400.10, August 9, 2006) details what a valid FOQA system contains. An excerpt from Volume 1, Chapter 5, Section 2, page 1-221 of this FAA document states: "Flight Operational Quality Assurance (FOQA) is a voluntary safety program designed to improve aviation safety ...

  5. X-inefficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-inefficiency

    The difference between the actual and minimum cost of production for a given output produces X-inefficiency. [1] Companies will incur X-Inefficiency as a result of lack of motivation to control its costs, which brings the average cost of production exceeds costs actually required for production. For example, the company have a potential ...

  6. Cost reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_reduction

    Every decision in the product development process affects cost: design is typically considered to account for 70–80% of the final cost of a project such as an engineering project [1] or the construction of a building. [2] In the public sector, cost reduction programs can be used where income is reduced or to reduce debt levels. [3]

  7. Business process re-engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_process_re...

    The business needs analysis contributes tremendously to the re-engineering effort by helping the BPR team to prioritize and determine where it should focus its improvements efforts. [21] The business needs analysis also helps in relating the BPR project goals back to key business objectives and the overall strategic direction for the organization.

  8. Single-ended primary-inductor converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-ended_primary...

    The single-ended primary-inductor converter (SEPIC) is a type of DC/DC converter that allows the electrical potential at its output to be greater than, less than, or equal to that at its input. The output of the SEPIC is controlled by the duty cycle of the electronic switch (S1).

  9. Operating expense - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_expense

    On an income statement, "operating expenses" is the sum of a business's operating expenses for a period of time, such as a month or year. In throughput accounting , the cost accounting aspect of the theory of constraints (TOC), operating expense is the money spent turning inventory into throughput . [ 4 ]
