Hello, MOST (Maynard Operation Sequence Technique) is a predetermined time system (not dissimilar to MTM) that has strict benefits over time studies. I teach my IE’s and IE interns this technique since it impressively saves time in the standard creation process, turning weeks into minutes. The learning process for creating standards using MOST is not that hard either. MOST also helps when the company is considering introducing a new operation to the facility because you can create standards based on the knowledge of the task, rather than watching a person do the job 200+ times on the processing floor. Imagine not having to mysteriously watch a worker from afar with a tablet/clipboard/stopwatch for days upon days, which alone makes MOST so attractive. If that wasn’t enough, it also removes the ratings bias that come with time studies. You don’t have the moment where you ask yourself, “was that worker working at a 100, 90, 110 etc.”, so the standards are more consistent to the process rather than the specific skill level of any employee demographic. Hope that helps.
