Abstract :
ROE (Return on Equity) is something that causes the most concern by stockholders and is a major index when evaluating a company´s overall profitability. This paper introduces a new index-Equipment Asset Productivity (EAP) to aid index-Asset Productivity (AP), the key elements of ROE, by benchmarking Fab-by-Fab asset management performance over time. A hierarchical asset management mechanism was developed to identify the root causes of poor asset management performance. The aim is to provide attainable execution plan that will allow senior management to improve assets productivity. In addition, the paper also designates the ownership of each index required to monitor progress in the future then by raising ROE.
