Method

The implementation of Continuous Improvement as a standard is specific for each organization and it depends highly on the existing and future business processes. Main issues in the change-project are the elimination of losses and full focus on value-adding activities.

Common steps are:

• Team consultation

• Organising and implementing changes

• Performance measurement

• Standardisation

While implementing necessary changes people in the organisation learn to improve processes systematically, like in a Continuous Improvement cycle, PDCA.
