Utilization

The proportion of available resource time or capacity that is consumed by actual work.

Examples

  1. 01Utilization of the test benches is 55 %, because many test slots are booked but not used.
  2. 02The weekly review compares utilization of each test bench with target and finds that two benches are always free on Fridays.
  3. 03A booking system cuts unused slots and raises utilization to 75 % without buying a new bench.
