Process Improvement is NOT:
• An employee replacement strategy
• A complex, impossible-to-learn methodology
• A “fix everything” model
6
Definition*
Systematic approach to closing of process or system performance gaps through streamlining and cycle time reduction, and identification and elimination of causes of below specifications quality, process variation, and non-value-adding activities.

Process Improvement Programs
• Total Quality Management (TQM)• Baldrige Award• ISO9000 Certification• PDCA• Lean Enterprise (Toyota Production System)• Six Sigma• Project Management (PMI Certification)• Agile (Scrum)• Constraints Management

Examples of Process Improvement
Process Starbucks and Lean Methodology UCLA Health and CICARE approach Mistake Proofing (Poka Yoke) Color coding “fall” patients
Innovation Music integration with Phones – one device GPS replacement of maps/directions Fuel efficiencies for autos, trains and planes

Culture and Process Improvement
• “Culture eats Strategy for Lunch” – Peter Drucker
• 70% of all change initiatives fail – John Kotter/Harvard
• Healthcare especially vulnerable
10
Benefits of Process Improvement
• Better patient experience• Improved clinical outcomes• Higher employee
engagement/morale• Sustainable financials (reduced
costs)• Faster results• Ability to grow without incremental
costs• Reduced errors/quality

• Lean Enterprise Thinking promotes speed and process waste elimination by reducing non-value added activities within any given process.
• Six Sigma is a formal methodology that eliminates or reduces variation in any given process. Its focus is on quality improvement and defect reduction. The higher the sigma level, the less variation in a process.
• Please see chart below:
Benefits of Lean Six Sigma
• Over $500M saved over 20+ years
• Faster processes• Waste elimination• Higher employee
morale• Better customer

Business Results
Culture Change
Leadership Development
• Profitability• Growth • New opportunities
• Future leaders• Shared business discipline• Continuous learning
• “Customer In” vs. “Company Out” market view
• Facts/data driven decisions• Busting bureaucracy• Collaborative, enhanced teamwork
Lean Six Sigma: Primary Objectives
17
–Goal — Reduce waste and increase process speed
–Focus — Identify non-value add steps and causes of delay
–Method — Value Stream Tools, Kaizen (“quick-hit”) events
LeanSpeed + Low Cost
–Goal — Improve performance on customer CTQs (Critical to Quality)
–Focus — Use DMAIC process with various tools to eliminate variation
–Method — conduct project selection workshop and develop projects through volunteer consultants
Six SigmaCulture + Quality
Six Sigma QUALITY Enables Lean Speed
(fewer defects meansless time spent on rework)
Lean SPEED Enables Six Sigma Quality
(faster cycles of experimentation / learning)
Combining Two Powerful Approaches
Tools You Should Know and Use
• Project Planning (WBS, Risk Assess, Comm Plan, RACI)• SIPOCR• Value Stream Map/Process Map• 5S• Spaghetti Diagram• DMAIC “thinking” for problem solving
20
In Summary• Process Improvement is critical
for success
• Culture must be adaptive and agile
• Lean Enterprise and Six Sigma recommended
• Process Improvement must align to Vision and Mission
