Dental, Orthodontic & Prosthetics Manufacturing worked example
Remake Rate at 99% target remake rate: a worked example
Push target remake rate up to 99% and the picture changes. This example computes every intermediate figure at that operating point. Use it when remake rate in dental, orthodontic and prosthetics manufacturing needs a clean rate and gap-to-target you can put on a tier board.
The inputs for this scenario
- Remake cases or units: 8 remakes (unchanged)
- Completed cases or units: 250 cases (unchanged)
- Target remake rate: 99 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 95)
Working through the calculation
- Applying the documented formula (Actual remake rate = remake cases or units ÷ completed cases or units × 100) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
- At this operating point the engine returns 3.2 % for actual remake rate, the number this scenario is built around.
- At this operating point the engine returns 95.8 points for remake rate gap to target.
- At this operating point the engine returns 8 count for remake cases or units.
- At this operating point the engine returns 250 count for completed cases or units.
How this compares with the baseline
- Against the tool's baseline example, where target remake rate sits at 95% and the headline result is 3.2 %, this scenario lands almost exactly on the baseline at 3.2 %.
- It computes the actual remake rate as a percentage of completed cases and the gap between that rate and your target. The value of this scenario is the size of the gap it exposes: that gap, priced out over a year, is the budget you can justify spending to close it.
Results at a glance
- Actual remake rate: 3.2 % (headline result)
- Remake rate gap to target: 95.8 points
- Remake cases or units: 8 count
- Completed cases or units: 250 count
