Process Improvement


Are dissatisfied customers (external or internal) causing you headaches and costing time or profits? Targeted process improvement could be the key!

 
Give your people the skills to develop and manage a quality management system based on process improvement, that links your customer strategy with all the processes and other systems to support delivery of quality products and services to your customers (internal and external).
 

The ProFocus one-day workshop "Managing Quality and Process Improvement" builds your people's skills and knowledge around:

  • Understanding what quality is and who dictates quality
  • Defining who their customers are and what are their needs
  • Understanding the connection between quality, customer loyalty and profitability / cost reduction
  • Building an integrated quality management system
  • Developing a client / service-focused culture
  • Using quality techniques such as Six Sigma to deliver customer requirements
  • Charting your processes to see the reality versus the ideal, and identify process improvement opportunities
  • Analysing root causes of problems so process improvement can be targeted effectively
  • Measuring process performance, process improvement, customer satisfaction and loyalty, and resulting profitability and / or cost reduction
  • Involving and rewarding staff process improvement through suggestion schemes

Process Improvement builds customer satisfaction and saves money

 

There is lots of evidence that profits (or cost reduction and effective funds utilisation in the case of not-for-profits) are directly affected by the customer satisfaction that comes from excellence in the processes that deliver your products and services to customers (internal and external).

 
Here are some questions asked in the "Managing Quality and Process Improvement" course:
  • Do you know the life-time value of your external customers?
  • Do you know how much repeat business and profit you lose through customer dissatisfaction?
  • Do you know the most important customer dissatisfiers for your customers?
  • Do you know the cost in time and effort lost in dealing with customer dissatisfaction and complaints?
  • Do you know the time and dollar cost of inefficient internal processes?
  • Do you know what internal customer dissatisfaction is costing you in efficiency, external customer satisfaction and profitability?
  • Do you know what the returns would be for investing in ongoing process improvement?
If you can't answer some of these questions, book the ProFocus workshop "Managing Quality and Process Improvement" to build the skills to provide answers to these questions and more, and improve your customer satisfaction and profitability.
