The results of the score calculation are displayed for each part and each score in an overview table like this.:

...

• Factor
  The blackbox - and thus the corresponding properties - that are considered for the score

• Score
  The individual result which is calculated by the corresponding blackbox - without applying weights.

• Impact
  The weight, or impact, this blackbox should have in the overall calculation

• Subscore
  The weighted result of each blackbox how it is considered for the overall score calculation

...

Profiles with Different Weights

It is possible to look at the same part from different angles. Two typical cases for optimization are cost reduction and lead time improvement. It is possible to set up different Econ scores by including different blackboxes or adjusting the weights by which blackboxes impact the overall results. Thus different Profiles can be created that score parts according to different measurements.

By default, we have configured three different profiles by which to assess parts:

• General

• Cost reduction

• Lead time improvement
