“Almost all quality improvement comes via simplification of design, manufacturing… layout, processes, and procedures”
— Tom Peters
No matter which type of organisation we work in, everyone needs processes in place in order to achieve business goals. If a process doesn’t work then the consequences can be detrimental by impeding growth and profitability by way of wasted time, effort and cost and the following issues are typical.
- Re-keying data into spreadsheets
- Maintaining data in different systems
- Trying to change complex spreadsheets that only one person in the department knows how to use
- People arriving at meetings with different figures for the same topic
- Manual and paper based methods of approval
- Different departments wasting time ringing each other up to find information
- Not having the answer to customer enquiries
- Manually calculating order quantities based on individual knowledge and guesswork
- Trawling through detailed reports to gain insight
- Only being able to access the system from the office
