Production Rate Calculator
Divide completed quantity by hours to get production rate. Optionally divide by crew size for a per-person rate you can reuse in the man-hour calculator.
Enter your values, then press Calculate.
How to calculate
Enter the quantity put in place and the hours it took. Crew size is optional for a per-person rate; use 1 if you only want crew rate.
Formula
Rate = quantity ÷ hours. Per-person rate = rate ÷ crew size. Quantity per day = rate × hours in a day (entered as hours if you want a shift projection).
Common use cases
- Daily production checks
- Calibrating a bid rate
- Comparing crews
- Feeding the man-hour calculator
Worked example
Example: 200 in 10 hours with 4 people
1. Crew rate
200 ÷ 10 = 20 units/hr
2. Per person
20 ÷ 4 = 5 units/hr/person

FAQ
Can I mix units?
No. Quantity units must match what you want the rate in. CY in, CY/hour out.
Is this a crew rate or a person rate?
The primary output is total quantity per hour for the hours you entered. Divide by headcount only when you need a per-person check.
