One of our classic recipes for lasting business transformation is based on the following managed process for business excellence:
- Map out the current situation: Assess existing processes and potential wastes and define the “as is” state.
- Define the vision: Identify goals & opportunities: define the “to be” state.
- Fill the gap: Implement a business excellence program and execute the projects with the highest priority.
- Sustain the gains: Standardize processes and improve incrementally.
- Close the loop: go back to 1 and look for new opportunities.
