In 1972, Ohio Edison Company developed and implemented a Work Measurement System as a solution to this problem. Over the years, the System has been automated, enhanced, expanded, and refined. Most importantly, it has been used effectively to improve the efficiency of the overall operation and, thereby, significantly reduce costs. ER -
