Why is it that some businesses operate more efficiently and effectively than others? Do they possess some kind of structural or market advantage? Do they have unique knowledge? Do they have a special technology?
These issues are often stated to be the difference between high performers and all the companies that struggle to rein in costs and achieve continuous improvement. How often have you heard someone say, ‘We could reach that benchmark if only…’?
Yet, many companies can be far more profitable than they currently are – they just don’t know it yet!
What they need is a more rigorous approach that not only encourages continuous improvement but provides the framework to guide your business through the process.
A NEW OPERATIONS IMPROVEMENT CYCLE
This book explains in detail a new ‘Operations Improvement Cycle’. This new cycle provides the benchmark, priority and guidance that were missing in the old Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle and provides the framework for implementing almost any technique.
The new 'Operations Improvement Cycle' uses three simple stages to guide you step-by-step through the process for achieving lower costs and operational excellence:
Crucially, the new 'Operations Improvement Cycle' details how to achieve all this by following 10 specific steps.
This New Book Shows You How to Apply The Process
The book, A New Strategy for Continuous Improvement, explains in detail the 8 reasons why operations improvement efforts fail and then takes you through the ’10 Steps’ of the new Operations Improvement Cycle.
Using examples and case studies from the author's direct experience, this manual will not only explain the ’10 Steps’ approach but will demonstrate how and why this approach is an improvement on past practices.
From this book you will learn:
When you read this book you are almost certain to come up with at least one good idea which when applied helps improve some aspect of your business. Perhaps you can implement the entire concept of continually reviewing your operations to find more areas to improve. John Matlock Winnemucca, NV
Drawing on extensive international experience in business improvement, Slater presents his "10 Steps" process that focuses on good sustainable practices—from getting organized to ignoring tradition—rather than on readily observable factors and faddish, environment-specific "best" practices. Chapters include case studies, action plan worksheets, and tips. The guide appends a step-by-step application of this framework, a glossary, and further information about his company. ©2007 Book News Inc. Portland, OR
