This paper deals with an assessment of the effectiveness of resource management in production processes. A comprehensive and standardized approach to the issue of effectiveness contributes to the maximization of the potential of production resources. In this paper, the concept of effectiveness was used in the sense of the praxeological approach, and its components were distinguished by availability, performance and quality, which were assessed through the prism of losses occurring in production processes. The main purpose of this work was to develop a method for assessing the effectiveness of the use of available resources when implementing production processes. The method is based on a set of quantitative indicators and takes into account the categorization of production losses. Losses in availability, performance and quality in terms of areas of production, logistics, and maintenance, as well as organization and management, were identified. It was developed in response to the research gap identified in the literature review, which showed that there is a lack of a quantitative method for assessing the effectiveness of production processes. The method also takes into account the categorization of production losses, and at the same time allows the contribution of the main areas (production and production-related) with regard to the generation of these losses. The method is primarily intended to identify the causes of problems occurring in any production process, to determine their importance in a measurable way, and to monitor the course of processes after introducing changes of a different nature. The method was verified on a real example in a branch of an automotive industry company located in Lower Silesia.
