The deductions
What reduces theoretical capacity to practical capacity.
The part
What it is
Maintenance, changeover, setup, breaks, quality losses and speed losses. Together these routinely account for a third or more.
Listing them separately shows which are addressable, since changeover time is a process problem while maintenance is a necessity.
The smallest level
The attributes it carries

Addressable
Whether it could be reduced, which separates changeover from maintenance.
