TECH581 Fall 2013 Measure Presentation November 11, 2013 Alex Garcia
CTQ CTQ KPIVs Customer(s) KPOV(s) Pay Application Review Time Time between when pay application is submitted and a check Is cut Accounts Payable Number of Individuals who review app INTERNAL Pay Application Processing Time Requirement of electronic submissions Direct Deposit/ Electronic Submission Contractors/Architects EXTERNAL Training of staff
Data Collection Plan • Dig deeper into how many pay apps AP can handle • Are they understaffed? • Cost/Time of switching to direct deposit • Interview the Director of Special Projects and Campus Planner to determine why and what ways can be used to eliminate the unnecessary delays in approving pay apps
Data Collection Results • AP receives on avg 100 pay requests per day • 1 person can process 30 per day • 2 people currently in AP that handle the checks
Data Collection Results • Some projects are auxiliaries functions, so the pay request must go through them for approval as well, adding another step to the process • Switching to direct deposit would help but would be difficult to do due to various regulations.
Elimination of KPIV • Requirement of electronic submissions for payment is not an issue, AP has instituted an electronic signature policy • Training of staff is currently ongoing regarding the electronic submission of pay applications
Conclusion • Initially started with 4 KPIV and 2 KPOV in the CTQ tree • Further review determines that 2 KPIV and 1 KPOV can be eliminated • Remaining KPIV are directly proportional. The more people it takes to review a pay app, the longer time it takes for the check to get cut • The measurable item is the number of days taken to get the pay app approved
