The Hoshin planning aligns the major strategic areas with the specific resources and action plans needed to make them happen.

Hoshin Kanri is the tool used to facilitate the creation of business processes that result in a sustained competitive advantage in various areas of business.

Through a back and forth refinement system known as “catch-ball”, the entire organization becomes involved in delivering a combination of break through performance along with daily operations.

The monthly and annual review mechanism in the Hoshin process enables the organization to “close gaps” more effectively enabling it to reach desired objectives.

Hoshin consists of a seven step process that begins with the selection of the vision/ mission and high level strategic objectives ending with the finalization of individual level improvement targets.
