Performance Excellence Process • The Performance Excellence Process (PEP) is an • integral part of our Xerox Lean Six Sigma strategy. The • Performance Excellence Process is how we align strategies • and performance objectives across the entire corporation. • It also is how we manage performance to ensure we • deliver value to our customers. The result is that we • deliver improved and profitable business results that • increase shareholder value. This allows us to reinvest • in the growth of our company. • PEP is based on sound quality principles and effective • performance management. The process consists of three • phases, as shown in the PEP diagram below: • Setting direction • Deploying direction • Delivering and inspecting results • (daily work processes) • Individual Objectives • (Performance Excellence Plans) In 2001, the Performance Excellence Process replaced the Managing for Results process and local-level performance management processes and integrated them into a single, global process for the corporation. PEP is applicable to all performance levels (Operating Unit, Organization/ Function, Department, Team/ Workgroup, Individual). The Performance Excellence Plan helps us document our objectives, measures and targets. A management process is implemented at every level of Xerox and provides structured opportunities for setting direction, communicating direction, and delivering and inspecting results.
