Methods - Time Measurement
H. B. Maynard was one of three persons instrumental in the creation
of MTM.
![Page 3: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Kjell Zandin, while working in the Swedish Division of H. B.
Maynard in the late 1960’s, detected striking similarities in the sequence of MTM defined
motions whenever an object was handled.
![Page 4: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Under MOST, the primary work units are no longer basic motions
as in MTM, but collections of these basic motions dealing with
moving object.
![Page 5: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
MOST makes the assumption that to move an object, a standard
sequence of events occurs.
![Page 6: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Under MOST, objects can be moved in only one of two ways:
• They are picked up and moved freely through space -- the GENERAL MOVE.
• They are moved and maintain contact with another surface -- the CONTROLLED MOVE.
![Page 7: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The MOST Family
• Basic MOST -- General Operations
• Mini MOST -- Repetitive Operations
• Maxi MOST -- Non-repetitive Operations
• Clerical MOST -- Clerical Operations
![Page 8: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Maxi MOST is used to analyze operations that are likely to be
performed less than 150 times per week.
![Page 9: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Basic MOST is used for operations that are likely to be performed more than 150 times
but less than 1500 times per week.
![Page 10: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Mini MOST is used to analyze operations likely to be repeated more than 1500 times per week.
![Page 11: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Decision Diagram provides a simple procedure for selecting the
most appropriate MOST Work Measurement System to use.
![Page 12: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The MOST Decision Diagram is based on +/- 5% accuracy and a
95% confidence level.
![Page 13: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
System Selection Charts may be used in lieu of the Decision
Diagram for choosing the best MOST Work Measurement
System to use.
![Page 14: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The MOST Standard Form provides the analyst with a
simple, consistent format for analyzing work using the method.
![Page 15: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
It should be possible to complete a MOST analysis by observing two complete cycles of work in
slow motion.
![Page 16: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
If the method is well established and the analyst knows the
operation and conditions, the Basic MOST calculations can be made from the office and used to
predict the times for a new procedure.
![Page 17: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
General Rules for Using MOST
• Each sequence model is fixed.
• No letter may be added or omitted for the General or Controlled Move Sequence.
• In general, no letter may be added or omitted for the Tool Use Sequence, with a few exceptions.
![Page 18: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
TMU
TMU = Time Measurement Unit
1 TMU = 0.0006 minutes
1 TMU = 0.036 seconds
![Page 19: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How it works
• The purpose of the MOST system is to calculate the cycle time for an operation based on Pre-determined time study data.
![Page 20: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Doing the math• A typical MOST work sequence code would look like this:• A10 B6 G3 A6 P3 A0
• Step 1 add up all the subscript numbers 10+6+3+6+3+0= 28
(the subscript is the MOST index value)• Step 2 Multiple the sum of the index by 10
– This answer gives the TMU equivalent 28 x 10 = 280 TMU
• Step 3 Convert to time 280 TMU * .036 seconds = 10.08 seconds
1 TMU
![Page 21: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
General Move
Sequence
![Page 22: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Four subactivities constitute the General Move Sequence
• “A” Action Distance (mainly horizontal)
• “B” Body Motion (mainly vertical)
• “G” Gain Control
• “P” Placement
![Page 23: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Roughly 50% of all manual work occurs as a General Move.
The percentage runs higher for assembly and material handling
and lower for machine shop operations.
![Page 24: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The General Move follows a fixed sequence of steps:
• Reach, either directly or in conjunction with body motions or steps.
• Gain control of the object.
• Move the object, as in “reach”.
• Place the object in temporary or final position.
• Return to the workplace.
![Page 25: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

B3 -- Sit or Stand without Moving Chair
When the body is simply lowered into a chair from an erect position,
without hand/foot motions required to manipulate the chair.
![Page 34: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
B6 -- Bend & Arise
From an erect standing position, the trunk of the body is lowered by
bending from the waist and/or knees to allow the hands to reach below the
knees.
![Page 35: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
B10 -- Sit or Stand

B16 -- Stand and Bend
This is a case where a sitting person must stand up and walk to a location to gain control of an object placed below knee level, where a Bend &
Arise is required.
![Page 37: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
B16 -- Bend & Sit
This applies when gaining control of an object requires a Bend & Arise
followed by a Sit prior to placing the object.
![Page 38: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
B16 -- Climb On or Off
This parameter variant covers climbing on or off a work platform on any raised surface (~3 ft) using a series of hand and body motions to
lift or lower the body.
![Page 39: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
B16 -- Passing Through Door
Passing through a door consists of reaching for and turning the handle, opening the door, walking through the door, and subsequently closing
the door.
![Page 40: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Gain Control (G)
This parameter is used to analyze all manual motions employed to obtain
complete manual control of an object(s) and to subsequently
relinquish that control.
![Page 41: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
G1 -- Light Object
Gain control of an object by grasping it as long as no difficulty is
encountered.
![Page 42: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
G1 -- Light Objects Simo
One hand gains control of a light object while the other hand obtains
another light object.
![Page 43: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
G3 -- Light Object(s) Non-Simo
While one hand is grasping an object, the other hand must wait before it can
grasp the other object.
![Page 44: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
G3 -- Heavy or Bulky
In grasping a heavy or bulky object there is a delay between when the
object is grasped and when it begins to move due to weight, bulk, etc.
![Page 45: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
G3 -- Blind or Obstructed
Access to the object is restricted because an obstacle prevents the
operator from seeing the object or creates an obstruction to the
hand/fingers in attempting to gain control.
![Page 46: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
G3 -- Disengage
An application of muscular force to free an object from its surroundings
typified by a need to overcome resistance followed by sudden
movement and recoil of the object.
![Page 47: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
G3 -- Interlocked
Interlocked means the object is intermingled or tangled with other objects and must be separated or
worked free before reaching control.
![Page 48: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
G3 -- Collect
Gain control of several objects jumbled together in a pile or spread
out on a surface.
![Page 49: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Placement (P)
This parameter is used to analyze actions at the final stage of an
object’s displacement to align, orient, and/or engage the object with other object(s) before control of the object
is relinquished.
![Page 50: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
P0 -- Pickup Objects
This is “placement” in which no placement occurs. The object is
picked up and held.
![Page 51: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
P0 -- Toss Object(s)
Another “placement” where placement does not occur. The object
is released during the “action distance” (A) parameter without
placing motions or pause to point the object toward the target.
![Page 52: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
P1 -- Lay Aside
The object is placed in an appropriate locations with no apparent aligning or
adjusting motions.
![Page 53: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
P1 -- Loose Fit
The object is placed in a more specific location than described by the Lay Aside parameter, but with
tolerances so loose that only a modest amount of control is needed for
placement.
![Page 54: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
P3 -- Adjustments
Adjustments are defined as the corrective actions occurring at the point of placement, and recognized by obvious efforts, hesitations, or correcting motions to align, orient,
and/or engage the object.
![Page 55: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
P3 -- Light Pressure
Because of close tolerances or the nature of the placement, the
application of muscular force is needed to seat the object.
![Page 56: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
P3 -- Double
With “double”, two distinct phases occur during the total placing
activity.
![Page 57: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
P3 -- Loose Fit Blind
In this case the operator must feel around for the placement location
before a loose placement can occur.
![Page 58: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
P6 -- Care or Precision
Extreme care is needed to place an object within a closely defined
relationship with another object, and characterized by the obvious slow motion of the placement due to the
high degree of concentration required.
![Page 59: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
P6 -- Heavy Pressure
As a result of very tight tolerances, a high degree of muscular force is
needed to engage the object.
![Page 60: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
P6 -- Blind or Obstructed
Accessibility to the point of placement is restricted because an
obstacle prevents the operator from seeing the point of placement, or
creates an obstruction to the hand/fingers when attempting to
place the object.
![Page 61: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
P6 -- Intermediate Moves
Several intermediate moves of the object are required prior to placing.
![Page 62: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
General Move Example
From a stack located 10 feet away, a heavy object must be picked up and moved 5 feet and placed on top of a workbench with some adjustments.
![Page 63: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
General Move Example
An assembly worker gets a handful of washers (6) from a bin located within
reach and puts one on each of six bolts located within reach, which are
four inches apart.
![Page 64: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
General Move Example
A worker gains control of two fittings that are within reach and located
more than two inches apart, one at a time, and places them on separate
trays that are within reach and located less than 2 inches apart.
![Page 65: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Controlled Move
Sequence
![Page 66: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Three new subactivities are found in the Controlled Move Sequence
“M” Move Controlled
“X” Process Times
“I” Align
![Page 67: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
The Controlled Move Sequence describes the manual
displacement of an object over a “controlled” path.
![Page 68: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
The Controlled Move follows a fixed sequence of steps:
Reach, either directly or in conjunction with body motions or steps.

of pivoting at the wrist and / or elbow, it is considered push - pull
cranking.
![Page 82: MOST Maynard Operation Sequence Technique Work Measurement System.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012815/551af9495503465e7d8b52ff/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
