The research aimed to explore the effect of Overall Equipment Effectiveness on equipment’s. Focusing on internal versus external factors. The study was conducted through open-ended interview and web- based questionnaire survey. Research results highlight the importance of measuring packaging production performance and computing costs due to poor performance. Research findings showed that 40% losses attributed to external factors and revealed that the monetary value attributed to production inefficiencies which contribute to losses into financial value.
