Implementing an organization-wide Continuous Improvement Program
Attaining quality leadership of goods and services will always lead to sustainable results and delighted customers. Quality leadership means your products and services are seen by your customers and stakeholders as the best in the markets you serve. To delight your customers and stakeholders, products and services must be superior to your competitors. To achieve superiority in quality you must continually improve your products, processes, and people which will transform the business and create a quality and excellence culture.
Aligning your continuous improvement program to the business plan.
Building the foundation for improvement means getting the resources needed to get everyone on board.
Strategic quality planning and deployment, also called hoshin kanri, is a goal setting method of ensuring the business strategy is executed at every level of the organization.
It is an effective approach because it eliminates the inefficiencies that are the product of inconsistent direction and poor communication.
