  21. Brief Example of Content

  22. Rational for Six-Sigma Improve processes Team - project based improvement Properly costed benefits Grow your own expertise Visible success Use of modern improvement tools

  23. Rational for Modern Maintenance Preventative maintenance Condition monitoring Better planning Less machine downtime Operators monitor machine and process condition

  24. Rationales Fit! Everyone is involved Monitoring - to help operators get better control over the process Publicise success

  25. Soren BisgaardLeading Industrial Statistician Extract from Presentation

  26. The “Success” of Change Programs? “Performance improvement efforts … have as much impact on operational and financial results as a ceremonial rain dance has on the weather” Schaffer and Thomson, Harvard Business Review (1992)

  27. Change Management:Two Alternative Approaches Activity Based Programs Change Management Result Oriented Programs Reference: Schaffer and Thomson, HBR, Jan-Feb. 1992

  28. Activity Centered Programs • Activity Centered Programs: The pursuit of activities that sound good, but contribute little to the bottom line • Assumption: If we carry out enough of the “right” activities, performance improvements will follow • This many people have been trained • This many companies have been certified • Bias Towards Orthodoxy:Weak or no empirical evidence to assess the relationship between efforts and results

  29. An Alternative: Result-Driven Improvement Programs • Result-Driven Programs: Focus on achieving specific, measurable,operational improvements within a few months • Examples of specific measurable goals: • Increase yield • Reduce delivery time • Increase inventory turns • Improved customer satisfaction • Reduce product development time

  30. Result Oriented Programs: • Project based • Experimental • Guided by empirical evidence • Measurable results • Easier to assess cause and effect • Cascading strategy

  31. Why Transformation Efforts Fail! • John Kotter, Professor, Harvard Business School • Leading scholar on Change Management • Lists 8 common errors in managing change, two of which are: • Not establishing a sense of urgency • Not systematically planning for and creating short term wins

  32. Six Sigma Demystified* • Alignment of customers, strategy, process and people • Significant measurable business results • Large scale deployment of advanced quality and statistical tools • Data based, quantitative *Adapted from Zinkgraf (1999), Sigma Breakthrough Technologies Inc., Austin, TX.

  33. Keys to Success* • Set clear expectations for results • Measure the progress (metrics) • Manage for results *Adapted from Zinkgraf (1999), Sigma Breakthrough Technologies Inc., Austin, TX.

  34. Six Sigma • The precise definition of Six Sigma is not important; the content of the program is • A disciplined quantitative approach for improvement of defined metrics • Can be applied to all business processes, manufacturing, finance and services

  35. Focus of Six Sigma* • Accelerating fast breakthrough performance • Significant financial results in 4-8 months • Ensuring Six Sigma is an extension of the Corporate culture, not the program of the month • Results first, then culture change! *Adapted from Zinkgraf (1999), Sigma Breakthrough Technologies Inc., Austin, TX.

  36. Six Sigma: Reasons for Success • The Success at Motorola, GE and AlliedSignal has been attributed to: • Strong leadership (Jack Welch, Larry Bossidy etc. personally involved) • Initial focus on operations • Aggressive project selection (potential savings in cost of poor quality > $50,000/year) • Training the right people

  37. Web-page example: From Quality Digest By Thomas Pyzdek a consultant in Six Sigma. http://www.qualitydigest.com/june01/html/sixsigma.html

  38. ISRU’s Support for Six-Sigma

  39. Hands-on Support for Champions Black-Belts and Master Blackbelts Full Six-Sigma programme from October - Black Belt - Green Belt - Yellow Belt - training and support This is VERY market / customer driven Plus - access to on-line support

  40. Keys to Success Mark II 1. Need to overcome demands on peoples time 2. Need to overcome reluctance to try new methods - fear of failure 3. Must be allowed to discover that the key methods are self correcting! In other words - you can’t really fail at all
