Labour efficiency assessment of aerospace industry innovative enterprises design office engineers

This article considers design office engineering labour efficiency assessment issue in terms of labour efficiency and project management improvement. Based on the systematic approach and taking into account the peculiarities of the engineering labour at the design office as well as aerospace industry enterprises innovative goals, the main issues, assessment criteria, and key indicators have been developed. The capabilities to increase the meaning of the human factor as the main strategic resource at the aerospace enterprise have been studied. Labour efficiency assessment method based on real labour cost accounting when performing certain designing activities is given, it connects enterprise targets and employee activities’ results. The labour efficiency assessment algorithm suggests using four stages of indicator calculation including the integral one. The software and the employee efficiency key indicators calculation procedure which can serve as incentive to design office engineer motivation increase as well as project contractor team self-organization have been developed. The database based on everyday labour cost accounting serves the foundation for the effective management concerning project deadlines and efficiency. The suggested rapid assessment of a certain employee labour efficiency allows keeping daily track of this indicator throughout the working hours, gives an opportunity to take timely measures to improve the situation increasing the level of competence by involving a more skilled employee or allowing extra time to solve a certain difficult task which does not cause a delay in total project schedule. At this moment a promising design office engineers labour efficiency assessment method for the aerospace industry is being tested within all concerned departments of the JSC Information Satellite Systems Reshetnev Company.
