Since its discovery, the COVID-19 virus spread all over the world and caused millions of deaths, this paper focuses on studying the impact of the pandemic on the connected and non-connected automotive production lines. This study is developed on two production lines in an automotive manufacturing factory that assembles 700 cars per day and the study is elaborated following two main steps: firstly, studying the impact of the virus spreading on the OEE “Overall Equipment Effectiveness” of the production lines, which is a quantitative metric used for the evaluation of the line effectiveness based on availability, performance and quality, and secondly analyzing the relationship between these factors and the OEE using the Design of Experiments method.
