Understanding KPIs
Key performance indicators (KPIs) are calculated measurements of a plan's performance.
You can compare two or more plans to view and compare KPIs. These measurements can help you determine which plan makes most sense for your organization.
The KPIs calculated by Fleet Planner are:
- Plan Cost
-
The projected cost of the plan, calculated based on Daily Costs of the tracks.
Nonworking and blackout days are not included in this calculation.
Important:If "Operational data has changed" appears in the the Plan Cost row, it means that location data for one or more tracks in the plan could not be found. This means that one or more of the yearly total costs is incorrect.
- Plan Yield
-
The average yield for all tasks in the plan.
- Check Yield
-
The average of the yields of the Principle Task in all visits in the plan. (Note that ad hoc tasks are not included in this average.)
- Utilization
-
The average usage percentage of all tracks in the plan.
Nonworking days count as unused work periods, but blackout days do not.
Important:If "No location data" appears in the Utilization row, it means that location data for one or more tracks in the plan could not be found. Utilization percentages will not be calculated.
- Out of Service
- The total number of visits on all tracks including overlaps (but not including Overflow and Retirement tracks).
- Retirement Visit
- Fleet Planner creates a retirement visit when a planner adds a planned retirement date for the aircraft. Fleet Planner schedules the retirement visit to the retirement track, and the visit contains tasks due after the aircraft's retirement date.
