1. Hampton Roads Quality Management Council George M. Yacus, Ph.D.
24 June 2009 Hello. Welcome to the Hampton Roads Quality Management Council and today’s presentation. Most of us are believers in Total Quality Management, Continuous Process Improvement, benchmarking, the theory of constraints, and so forth. I’ve been on the quality journey of evolution since the early 1990s and only recently have I started to put the pieces together into a framework that makes sense to me. Many of you will know most of the content of this presentation, and some of you will only know a little bit about it. No matter what group you are in, however, I believe that it may help to put some of our quality systems pieces into a system that will help the users to achieve better performance.Hello.

10. Management Theory Dr. Armand V. Feigenbaum
Total Quality Control (TQC) Principles
TQC is company-wide, all functions are involved
Quality is what the customer says it is
Quality and production costs are in partnership
Higher quality will equate to lower costs
Both individual and team zeal are required
Management must continuously be unrelenting on quality
Quality and innovation work together in product development
All of management is involved in quality, not just the experts
Continuous improvement includes new and existing technologies
Quality is the most cost-effective route to productivity
Quality must be implemented with both customers and suppliers

Components include
Product/service Quality
Continuous improvement (kaizen)
Delighting the customer
Long term view
Reduction of variation
System of profound knowledge (systems approach, variation, epistemology, psychology)
Plan, Do, Check, Act

15. Total Quality Management 14 Points
1."Create constancy of purpose towards improvement". 2."Adopt the new philosophy". 3."Cease dependence on inspection". 4."Move towards a single supplier for any one item.”5."Improve constantly and forever". 6."Institute training on the job". 7."Institute leadership". 8."Drive out fear". 9."Break down barriers between departments". 10."Eliminate slogans". 11."Eliminate management by objectives". 12."Remove barriers to pride of workmanship". 13."Institute education and self-improvement". 14."The transformation is everyone's job". 4/21/2012 15
16. Total Quality Management 7 Deadly Diseases
Lack of constancy of purpose.
Emphasis on short-term profits.
Evaluation by performance, merit rating, or annual review of performance.
Mobility of management.
Running a company on visible figures alone.
Excessive medical costs.
Excessive costs of warranty, fueled by lawyers who work for contingency fees. 4/21/2012 16
17. Reengineering, Benchmarking, ISO 9000, Scorecards Reengineering
The application of technology and management science to the modification of existing systems, organizations, processes, and products in order to make them more effective, efficient, and responsive (now being called Business Process Reengineering)
Benchmarking
Benchmarking is the process of comparing the cost, time or quality of what one organization does against what another organization does. …
benchmark - a standard by which something can be measured or judged; "his painting sets the benchmark of quality” 4/21/2012 17
18. Reengineering, Benchmarking, ISO 9000, Scorecards International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
a family of standards for quality management systems
Allows for formal registration and certification
Some of the requirements in ISO 9001 include:
a set of procedures that cover all key processes in the business;
monitoring processes to ensure they are effective;
keeping adequate records;
checking output for defects, with appropriate and corrective action where necessary;
regularly reviewing individual processes and the quality system itself for effectiveness; and
facilitating continual improvement
4/21/2012 18 Common criticisms:
-amount of money, time and paperwork required for registration.
-promotes specification, control, and procedures rather than understanding and improvement.
-reliance on the specifications of ISO 9001 does not guarantee a successful quality system.
-certifications are in fact often based on customer contractual requirements rather than a desire to actually improve quality.
- a vehicle to increase consulting services with numerous certifying bodies

Dashboards
What’s the Difference?
A dashboard is a performance monitoring system
A scorecard is a performance management system
4/21/2012 19
21. Reengineering, Benchmarking, ISO 9000, Scorecards “The goal of a scorecard is to keep the business focused on a common strategic plan by monitoring real world execution and mapping of that execution back to a specific strategy” (MBWA Blog)
“A dashboard falls one level down in the business decision making process from a scorecard; as it is less focused on a strategic objective and more tied to specific operational goals” (MBWA Blog)
“Reports are best used when the user needs to look at raw data in an easy-to-read format” (MBWA Blog)

Senior management is involved
A disciplined approach (DMAIC)
Short project completion times (3-6 months)
Clearly defined measures of success
Infrastructure of trained individuals
Focus on customers and processes
Sound statistical approach 4/21/2012 27
28. Theory of Constraints Dr. Eliyahu M. Goldratt (1984)
A method for identifying and overcoming key bottlenecks and constraints which inhibit an organization from achieving its goal
Scott Bonney’s John Deere Tractor Example
Managing the constraint
Identify the constraint
Exploit the constraint
Subordinate all other processes
Elevate the constraint 4/21/2012 28
29. Turning Theory Into Action So, we have all this historical evolution of management and full toolbox of analytical and process tools
How do we use these to improve organizational performance?
The answer: A Baldrige Management Framework
Are there any success stories? Yes, there are! 4/21/2012 29
30. What Do Excellent Organizations Do? 4/21/2012 30
Strategy Selection and Appropriate Measures
They define Mission, Vision, Values, and Key Business Factors, and select performance measures
They develop a strategy with specific goals on the basis of Customer Valid Requirements (existing and future) competitor performance, and benchmarking of excellent processes
31. 4/21/2012 31 Organizational Business Processes
32. 4/21/2012 32 Here is a generic illustration of the appropriate components of a comparative line graph. We see that the graph has a clear Title and figure number. We also see that each axis of the graph is clearly marked and consistent with the “story” that the line graph is telling. A “Good Arrow” is present to ensure that the direction of the lines is not misinterpreted. There is also a legend to assist in interpretation of the different graph components. This is a very strong graph in that there are illustrations of how the organization is performing as a whole, how each division of the organization is performing, and how the organization is performing relative to several benchmarks. If you were the CEO of this organization, where would you want to concentrate your resources in order to create world class performance in customer satisfaction?

33. What Do Excellent Organizations Do? 4/21/2012 33
Using Measures to Improve Performance
They actually use Strategic Plans and Annual Plans to manage the organization
They actually use data to make business decisions
They review, analyze, and take action on poorly performing measures at all levels of the organization
They can demonstrate how changes in quality, human resource initiatives and customer satisfaction impact financial performance
They understand the correlation and relationships between all performance measures
34. Measurement system design typically includes…(does this look familiar?) 4/21/2012 34 Identifying the highest priority processes (TOC)
Documenting the processes (DMAIC)
Identify the customer (internal / external)
Identify customer needs / requirements
Identify the process owner
Identify key steps / decisions
Establishing indicators and performance expectations (targets, trends, controls) (VARIATION)
Developing process control system (LEAN)
Monitor indicators
Implement and standardize improvements
35. What is an Indicator? 4/21/2012 35 A measurement that represents reality
A gauge of progress
A way of learning about your process performance
The best indicators focus on measuring what’s important to the customer - Customer Valid Requirements (CVRs)
36. What is Not an Indicator? 4/21/2012 36 A feeling
A best guess
An opinion
A belief
An intuition
A thought
37. Criteria for Good Indicators 4/21/2012 37 Close fit to customer valid requirements
Better, Faster, Cheaper, Safer, Fairer
Accurate data
Low cost data collection ($$ and effort)
Understandable by others
Roll-up (and breakdown) capabilities
38. What are the advantages of utilizing Balanced Scorecards? 4/21/2012 38 Translates and communicates the organizational Vision, Mission, and Values
Provides essential information to determine strategic goals, objectives, and initiatives
Assists in allocating resources and effort
Creates empowerment to improve performance throughout the organization
Provides opportunities for stakeholder feedback and organizational learning
39. Alignment 4/21/2012 39 Does this look familiar to you? Its kind of like asking everyone to quickly close their eyes and point North, right?
Many organizations have problems with alignment. Different parts of the organization are moving in different ways, some with and some against the grain of the overall organization.Does this look familiar to you? Its kind of like asking everyone to quickly close their eyes and point North, right?

44. What’s an Organizational Profile? 4/21/2012 44 Your organization’s environment
Your organization’s relationships
Your organization’s competitive environment
Your organization’s strategic challenges
Your organization’s performance improvement system Now let’s discuss organizational profiles. Sterling asks all organizations who participate in an assessment process to complete an “Organizational Profile.” Each organization has its own set of demographic and production factors that create the foundation for the organization’s existence. The Sterling Council places an emphasis on focusing the criteria to meet the specific requirements of each individual business. Sterling strives to understand each business by identifying the Key Business Factors. And if you speak Sterlingese, you will call these the “KBF’s”.
A clear description of the KBFs helps Sterling Examiners understand what is most important to the organization. This allows the examiner to look for those factors throughout the body of the application and in the Business Results.
For example, if your organization is highly dependent upon suppliers to deliver materials just at the right time, then you would want to describe this in the Organizational Profile. Sterling Examiners would, in turn, look in your application for how your organization manages suppliers to ensure “just in time” delivery of materials. This is because you have indicated that the aspects of the Sterling criteria that relate to managing suppliers is an important component of your business.Now let’s discuss organizational profiles.

45. The Leadership Triad 4/21/2012 45 The system begins with the leadership triad. It’s also called the driver triad, because this is what makes the system run. If you don’t start with leadership, you won’t get far.
Leadership sets direction and purpose for the organization, reviews and manages performance, commits resources, motivates employees, and helps us focus on what’s important. How do they do that? Well, successful leaders are always focusing on customers. Customer satisfaction and market leadership are keys to success. Leaders learn all about customers and markets, and then use that information, along with information about their own performance, to create critical strategies that will lead the organization to success.
All three of these areas work together to set direction.The system begins with the leadership triad. It’s also called the driver triad, because this is what makes the system run. If you don’t start with leadership, you won’t get far.

46. The Results Triad 4/21/2012 46 The system is focused on results. That is the end point of the system. But you can have all the leadership, and all the planning you want. In and of themselves, they don’t create results.
Your work processes and the employees who carry out those processes is the combination that actually creates results. This is where the rubber meets the road… The critical linkage to business results.
If you systematically improve your methods for doing work, and systematically improve employee skills, knowledge, well-being, and satisfaction, positive results are bound to happen. That’s what the results triad is all about. By managing our processes, and focusing on human resources, we directly drive results. The system is focused on results.

48. Information-Rich Environment 4/21/2012 48 Ever hear the saying, “data rich, information poor?” That comes from organizations gathering a ton of data, but not understanding effective ways to analyze the data so that it can be converted into useful information that will be acted upon.
We must have an environment rich in information and analysis. Every aspect of the system creates information, uses the information to enhance specific performance, and shares information to enhance overall performance.
Leadership needs information about performance, about customers, and about competitors to develop successful strategies and plans. Then leadership needs information about the strategies to manage them. We also need information about our processes and our human resources to effectively manage. Business Results are information – key performance information. Everything in the system has some relationship to information and analysis.Ever hear the saying, “data rich, information poor?” That comes from organizations gathering a ton of data, but not understanding effective ways to analyze the data so that it can be converted into useful information that will be acted upon.

49. Measuring Across the Model 4/21/2012 49 Leadership: How do we measure leader’s abilities to set/communicate direction? How do we measure our role as good citizens?
Strategic Planning: How do we measure the effectiveness of our strategic plan?
Customer/Market Focus: How do we measure market factors & determine if we are meeting or exceeding customer requirements?
50. Measuring Across the Model 4/21/2012 50 Information & Analysis: How do we measure how well our measurement system is performing? (Redundant? – Not really!)
HR Focus: How do we measure employee factors for work, training, and well-being?
Process Management: How do we measure effectiveness/efficiency of business processes?

Consider demographics and market data
Develop customer segments to ensure that specific needs are met
What does the customer want?
Determine specific criteria for products or performance
Consider price, delivery time, defects, safety
Consider relative value
