[QUOTE="Floridacargocat, post: 536852, member: 6168"] Would like to venture the following: "Live by the numbers, die by the numbers". Use of the numbers and an intelligent utilization of the numbers will reveal the real situation. If the numbers are consistently on the positive side, then what does it reveal? That work can be performed (far) above standards? (How was this done; could IE profit from this and set new standards?). Or that the numbers have been contrived through a massaging of the base information. If the numbers would be consistently low, then this would attract attention far earlier than high numbers. In my experience (now close to 40 years in various industries), high productivity numbers are suspicious too; you just have to look very closely at them and you may need to observe operations (not just a few minutes but for several sessions/days). At the end of the day, someone came to a mathematical result and was maybe influenced to arrive at a better result (spreadsheets with built-in formulas and macros can be such a beautiful instrument for calculation purposes). Is this called integrity or would this be systemic? Sooner or later these variances will be noticed. [/QUOTE]
