OUR SYSTEMS PERSPECTIVE AND APPROACH
SYSTEMS PERSPECTIVE - After hundreds of implementations, AfCI LLC has found that the bottom-to-top arrangement of the Baldrige Items, as shown in the Dashboard above, is the most effective systems approach. We also discovered that the 4.1, 4.2, 5.1, and 5.2 items are the first to implement, giving the client an encouraging Rapid Head Start. This led to the creation of the new Workforce Excellence Program (blue shaded blocks in the OE21 Dashboard.
The following steps are recommended for the sequence of implementation.:
-
Implementing P.1, P.2, 4.1, and 4.2 provides the workforce with the information, knowledge, and results excellence measurement system needed by the workforce and senior leadership..
-
Implementing 5.1a, 5.1b, 5.2a, 5.2b, and 5.2c enables the workforce to measure, analyze, improve, and reward higher productivity, engagement, quality, cost/schedule performance, and innovation.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? Our experience is that once you achieve workforce excellence all the other blocks in the Dashboard tend to improve, for example:
-
A high-performing workforce designs and improves key work processes and effectively manages operations, as necessary to deliver high-quality products and services at competitive prices.
-
Customers purchase high-quality products and services, and their higher satisfaction and loyalty create more revenue and market share.
-
Adding revenue and market share helps senior leaders accomplish their mission, vision, and values. Keeping focus on high performance.helps in implementing Strategy to stay ahead of competitors. Over time, the organization becomes a role model for comparative organizations and the community.
SELECTIVE PRESCRIPTIVE APPROACH - AfCI LLC’s organization excellence assessment quickly determines whether or not the client has existing approaches responsive to Baldrige Items 1 to 6, plus a reasonable estimate of current results. In cases where no existing process for measuring, analyzing, improving, and learning exists, we prescribe the appropriate models from our OE21 library of data collection and analysis models. In cases where the client has good processes in place, we make sure they are documented and deployed well.
EVIDENCE THAT OUR SELECTIVE PRESCRIPTIVE APPROACH WORKS - Many of our Army, Navy and Air Force customers won Baldrige-based Unit Self Assessment awards, some came with funds. One of our large shipyard clients was a finalist in the Presidents Quality Award. Our large trucking company client in Arkansas won first place in the Baldrige-based Postal Service Supplier Quality Awards. Most of Americas SBDC network uses our Balrige-based model for their Accreditation. See Customers.
