1 Driving change and continuous process improvement
2 Process improvement or PI involves applying tools and techniques to help a company achieve its goals Characteristics Aligned around what customers value Description At GE, process improvement is aligned around what our customers value, which translates into business objectives that flow from the enterprise level through the organization level down to individuals Utilize proven tools and methodologies At GE, we leverage Six Sigma, Lean and CAP (Change Acceleration Process) as enablers of continuous improvement We monitor a handful of key process metrics to ensure we are making progress toward achieving corporate objectives Foundation of competitive advantage The ability to embrace change is not only core to continuous process improvement but is indeed a foundation of competitive advantage At GE, we have refined our change culture through the decades, in line with our strategy 2
3 PI begins with understanding the customer s values, goals and needs, and answering the following four questions What are the barriers to your goals? What processes do you need to improve?? How will you define and measure success? How do you make big change across a large, multisite organization? 3
4 What are the barriers to your goals? 4
5 To achieve goals: Ensure alignment of corporate objectives with customer value, ensure appropriate resource deployment Corporate Objectives Energize and focus our commercial efforts Operate with discipline and excellence Mitigate risk and reduce cost Compliance in everything we do Create a culture that inspires Business Unit Objectives Build and run outstanding Centers of Excellence and platforms Simplify the business Drive a culture of continuous improvement Compliance in everything we do Create a culture that inspires Operate with excellence Simplify the business Compliance in everything we do Create a culture that inspires and strives for perfection Specific Divisional Objectives Sub-goal 1 Sub-goal 2 Sub-goal 3 Sub-goal 1 Sub-goal 2 Sub-goal 3 Sub-goal 1 Sub-goal 2 Sub-goal 3 Sub-goal 1 Sub-goal 2 Sub-goal 3 5
6 and prioritize areas of focus Example: GE Capital, Americas, is comprised of multiple business units. Below is an example of how we determined which segments to focus on: Evaluation Criteria Leadership Buy-In Head Count (FTE) Spend (SG&A) Front-End Metrics Quality Volume Growth Rate Which segments of your organization should you focus on? Are they the most strategic for achieving your objectives? 6
7 What processes do you need to improve? 7
8 To drive improvements in processes, we offer an arsenal of effective tools 8
9 Six Sigma 9
10 Six Sigma encompasses six key concepts Critical to Quality (CTQ) Key attributes that are most important to the customer. If a business doesn t get them right, the customer will react adversely. Defect Process Capability Variation Stable Operations Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) Failing to deliver what the customer wants. Defects include anything that doesn t meet customer expectations or customer specifications; defects also can contribute to failing to meet customer expectations in the final product or service. The ability of your procedure to reach the same result every time. Repeatability, or how consistently you do something, and accuracy, or how close you get to your desired outcome, are essential to a capable process. Variation is the difference that the customer notices from one item to the next, as well as the differences within processes. Six Sigma aims to reduce variation as much as possible for a repeatable result. Ensuring consistent, predictable processes to improve what the customer sees and feels. Accuracy and repeatability are essential so you can predict what an operation will do in the future. Designing to meet customer needs and process capability. Organizations that follow the DFSS credo implement Six Sigma as early in the product or service lifecycle as possible, especially at the design stage. 10
11 Six Sigma practitioners follow analytical steps to measure, monitor and modify a process to make a better product or service a process known as DMAIC DMAIC The Six Sigma Process Define Measure Analyze Improve Control What do customers expect from your products and services? Why do defects occur? What is the frequency of defects? What do we change to improve the defect rate? How can we sustain improvement? 11
12 The statistical objective of Six Sigma is to reduce variation in product quality Process Off Target Target Excessive Variation Target LSL USL LSL USL Center Process Target Reduce Spread Defects LSL USL Reduce variation and center process customers feel the variation more than the mean 12
13 Applying Six Sigma techniques dramatically improves quality The Classical View of Quality 99% Good (3.8σ) 20,000 lost articles of mail per hour Unsafe drinking water almost 15 minutes each day 5,000 incorrect surgical operations per week Two short or long landings at most major airports daily 200,000 wrong drug prescriptions each year No electricity for almost seven hours each month The Six Sigma View of Quality % Good (6σ) Seven lost articles of mail per hour One minute of unsafe drinking water every seven months 1.7 incorrect surgical operations per week One short or long landing at most major airports every five years 68 wrong drug prescriptions each year One hour without electricity every 34 years 13
14 Lean process design 14
15 Lean is a continuous process to reduce waste executed in five distinct but interconnected steps Define value from the customer s perspective and express value in terms of a specific product Complete elimination of waste steps/tasks/elements so that as many activities as possible create value for the customer; ensure ongoing compliance and quality control 5 Work to Perfection 1 Specify Value 4 Implement Pull Map all process steps that bring a product or service to the customer and 2 identify which are value-added and which are non-value-added Map the Value Stream 3 Establish Flow Measure continuous movement of products, services and information endto-end throughout the process Implement pull strategy (vs. push ) since nothing is done by the upstream process until the downstream customer signals the need 15
16 Waste comes in seven different forms and can be found in any activity Elements of Waste Why a Waste? Related to: Transportation + Motion Overproduction + Waiting Time + Inventory Overprocessing + Defects Lower productivity Longer lead times Possible part damage Higher volume of work in progress Consumes floor space Extra resources to manage Hides shortages and defects Consumes resources ahead of necessity Difficult to identify source of quality problems Consumes resources Increases production time Lower return on capital employed Higher product cost Layout (badly designed process) Organization Poor housekeeping Sharing of equipment Poor production planning Breakdowns Long setup times Low availability of suitable skills Poor materials/out-of-date standards Inadequate training/skills Lack of innovation and improvement/poor product design Lack of standard operating procedures (SOPs) Incomplete design and engineering information 16
17 Complexity/Sophistication GE Capital A key step in instituting Lean process Kaizen Kaizen means change for the better and is both a method and a mind-set for continuous improvement 1 st Kaizen Value stream map Define product and customers Timing & sequence Identify waste Simplify process steps 2 nd Kaizen Fewer ways to do tasks; mistake-proof/standard work Eliminate non-valueadded steps Customer pull Visual management: make processes visible 3 rd Kaizen Verify each step Shorten feedback loops Don t pass defects Single-piece flow n th Kaizen Time 17
18 Key steps in kaizen execution include identifying opportunities, narrowing the focus and prioritizing opportunities Identify opportunities Come from value stream map; identify the actions required to move from the current state to the future state Narrow the focus Use root-cause analysis so that each kaizen is actionable and targeted at the true underlying problem Compare the future and current state maps to ensure that all required actions are captured Prioritize opportunities Logically sequence each opportunity based on: Impact (from the customer s perspective) Ease of implementation Other business/organization considerations Always looking for early wins that can be executed now 18
19 Change Acceleration Process (CAP) 19
20 The Change Acceleration Process or CAP is: A flexible/nonlinear model used throughout a change process A strategy for influencing choices and behaviors A way to facilitate commitment and behavioral change through team dialog and action 20
21 CAP includes a list of steps for successfully leading and managing change Leading Change Creating a Shared Need Shaping a Vision Mobilizing Commitment Making Change Last Monitoring Progress CURRENT STATE TRANSITION STATE Systems and Structures FUTURE STATE 21
22 Identifying committed leadership who can balance a technical strategy with an engagement strategy is key to realizing the benefits of CAP Technical Strategy Q x = Engagement Strategy A Effective Leadership E Key Questions What impact does leadership have? How can leaders invite others to make the choice for change? What actions and behaviors will leaders of change need to consistently model during the change initiative? How should leaders be challenging themselves to take personal initiative and appropriately challenge the status quo? Key Mind-sets Change is life all that lives must change/adapt In all change there is some loss Resistance is natural, normal, and necessary All change is a matter of individual choice Each individual must find his or her own way 22
23 How will you define and measure success? 23
24 Define metrics to track results and to measure success against stated objectives Questions to ask yourself: What are your key customer-facing metrics? Can you link them to your organization s results? Sample key metrics Cycle time (Median) Cycle time (Span) Win rate/lost deals Explained in detail on next slide Your key metrics? TBD TBD TBD 24
25 Example of a metric: Monitoring cycle time progress Days 24/7, includes weekends 99 days Cycle Time n=594 Measurement/Reporting Weekly Aging Report Core Metrics Dashboard 76 Communication 53 Staff & Operating Meetings All Employee Rollouts 21 days Span Median G&Os Reflect Performance Goals Projects Portfolio Management Team Reducing variation while reducing overall cycle time Action Workout Systems Reduction Doubled Field Credit Authority Monthly Survey to Customers 25
26 How do you make big change across a large, multisite organization? 26
27 Lastly, successful execution of a process improvement program relies upon empowering employees, communicating frequently and openly, and building a culture of continuous improvement Description 1 Empowerment Empower employees through targeted company-wide training programs 2 Communication Prioritize Use multiple channels to communicate importance of the process improvement program throughout the organization 3 Culture Use both a top-down approach led by the quality team and a bottomup approach through the Lean program to enable change across the organization 27
28 1 Empowering employees Do more with less Getting everyone involved through organized training programs: 3-hour training class ~15 students per class, mentored by Six Sigma Black Belts Project selection (scoped for <3 weeks) Report-out to leadership Amplifying impact through a company-wide training program 28
29 2 Communication is key Make a big deal about it Consider branding the initiative Tie it to goals and objectives Multiple channels to communicate (use them all) Employee newsletters Operating reviews Internal portals Best-practice sharing Staff meetings Presentations 29
30 3 Create a culture of continuous process improvement In the first year Top-Down Approach Quality Team Deployment Create Metrics Establish Lean Processes Design Communication Rhythm Continuously Improve Examples of Goals 1,000 employees trained 800 projects completed 3,000 steps removed 54,000 hours eliminated 46% average cycle time reduction per project Bottom-Up Approach Training Program, Mentoring and Goal Setting 30
31 Key takeaways 31
32 Key takeaways Process improvement is a set of tools that can help your organization achieve its goals GE starts its business transformation program with a focus on what customers value, which it translates into business objectives that cascade throughout the organization At GE, we leverage a number of tools and methodologies including Six Sigma, Lean and CAP to implement continuous improvements We monitor a handful of key metrics to ensure that we are working toward achieving corporate objectives Lastly, we have built a culture of continuous process improvement consistent with our view that the ability to embrace change is a strategic and competitive advantage 32
