  6. Problem Identification • Initial research was careful observation of the MIE office, specifically the printing/supply room. • Conversed with Dr. Pope, who had some major concerns with the “dots everywhere,” and his office organization • Talked with Tracy who suggested we use a file organizer she had found

  7. Possible Options • Organize Dr. Pope’s office (layout, shelving) • Mount shelf in printing room to relieve counter space and better organize • Redesign floor layout/flow, (printers) • Create down draft table to keep dots contained, cost outweighs benefits

  8. Problem Definition • After analysis, we found the printing/supply room to be very disorganized and inefficient specifically with the paper handling accessories. • These included the stapler, paper cutter, tape dispenser, scissors, pencils, paper clips, etc.
