Keys to the Success
What made this dramatic difference? This was a quality and performance turnaround engineered from the shop floor up, and top management down, using highly structured team problem solving techniques and business operating metrics consulting, implementation, and training. Quality systems can and do pay dividends and contribute to bottom-line results. This was not a typical financial turnaround engagement.
The keys to this dramatic change in business performance were:
- Quality processes
- Program management processes
- Production management processes
- Effective team building techniques
- Effective team problem solving
- Effective business operating metrics
- Process discipline
- Effective listening to the “voice of the customer”
- Continuous improvement processes
We have observed that all companies have a Business Operating System with performance metrics for managing the business. The system and metrics may or may not be supporting the business strategy and meeting business goals. An audit of a Business Operating System and its metrics can aid in determining aberrations in performance behavior.
