Fabrication monitoring system

A method of monitoring fabrication performance, the method comprising:

• calculating a planned quantity as an expected value that is to be fabricated on a first date in accordance with a production plan;
• calculating an actual quantity as an actual value that is fabricated on a second date;
• and
• calculating a daily part index, wherein the daily part index represents a delta between the planned quantity and the actual quantity divided by the actual quantity.

A computer program product for providing a method of monitoring fabrication performance, the computer program product having a medium with a computer program embodied thereon, the computer program comprising

• computer program code for calculating a planned quantity as an expected value that is to be fabricated on a first date in accordance with a production plan;
• computer program code for calculating an actual quantity as an actual value that is fabricated on a second date;
• and
• computer program code for calculating a daily part index, wherein the daily part index represents a delta between the planned quantity and the actual quantity divided by the planned quantity.
