Features of the Service Include:

Production measures for investment appraisal - Before major investments in methods and machines, processes can be measured and assessed against specifications and expectations.  Also, machines can be assessed during commissioning to establish their fitness for hand over.  All ASB Management Services practitioners are expert in measuring work and machine processes.
       
Production measures for process control and costing - Measuring work processes in detail and maintaining these measures will often be the foundation for maximizing the use of resources and maintaining high productivity.  ASB Management Services practitioners can support all levels of requirement.
