The document discusses Oregon Department of Environmental Quality's use of Lean Process Improvement and Kaizen events to simplify business processes. It explains that DEQ uses 5-day Kaizen events with process improvement tools to identify inefficiencies. Several of DEQ's divisions have already participated in Lean-Kaizen and implemented solutions. Lean identifies customer needs and requirements and maps processes to understand inefficiencies and roles. It can provide measurable results within 6 months through process improvements, better communications, and redirected resources.
Overview of what Lean management means to organizations in terms of culture change, process improvement and the importance of educating your workforce about Lean Enterprise concepts.
What will drive Lean Management System is the “Why” more so than the “How”. The “Why” provides the clear strategic intent which will provide the fuel for Leader Standard Work. Standardizing your work provides opportunity to spread it within your organization and make it easier for customers to go deeper into your organization for knowledge sharing. This provides a flood of new ideas for innovation and co-creation opportunities. But even more importantly it secures a vendor-customer relationship or partnership that is difficult for others to replicate. There is a presentation on Slideshare utilizing this slide deck.
Six Sigma seeks to solve problems within the area of quality management and optimizes processes by statistically observing business procedures. This approach establishes a well-coordinated cooperation of all participants and can meet the customer’s requirements as suitable as possible. Other crucial factors of Six Sigma are the introduction of new process solutions which capture the process itself as well as the measurement and the correction of variations.
Six Sigma is a collection of examination techniques which detect key figures and key performance indicators. Such techniques are for example the DMAIC cycle that determines benefits of current projects and improves its assets. DMAIC defines each stage of the optimization process, in which every phase applies different analyses. DMAIC is an acronym for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control.

Vygantas Kazlauskas - How Agile saved Christmas in EstoniaAgile Lietuva
In Estonia, Omniva delivers 18 million parcels per year. In 2018, we set the goal to completely renew our information system by Christmas which is our busiest time of the year. We also opened a brand new logistics centre with the most modern automated sorting line in the Baltics. Without Agile, Christmas could have been very sad in Estonia…

Many quality improvement programs fail because they were not managed as a total process. Total Quality Process (TQP) teaches you how to approach quality or any change initiative as a company-wide effort. You will learn how to make a commitment, plan and begin to implement systems for managing quality that integrates all the people, processes/systems and continuous improvement initiatives together.
Based on Philip Crosby's methodology, what this presentation guide will focus is not a new quality control system, but a company-wide approach to total quality. A process for total quality must comprise Quality Management and Quality Improvement. The Total Quality Process (TQP) introduced in this presentation is based on Five Quality Principles and establishes Four Key Activities for Quality Management. TQP is designed to involve every employee in your company in quality improvement efforts.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Explain the Principles of Quality
2. Describe the TQP framework ("House of Quality")
3. Define the Four Key Activities for managing quality
4. Explain the need for a culture change, starting at the top
5. Demonstrate a personal commitment to total quality
6. Explain the TQP implementation infrastructure
7. Describe how to put the systems for TQP into motion
8. Identify ways to sustain TQP activities
9. Understand a manager's role in quality improvement
Continual Improvement Process is required to adopt by almost every organization to compete in the market. This slide presentation will give you a brief overlook what it is? without going into details.

Halden Zimmermann: Continuous Improvement as a Tool Part 1Halden Zimmermann
This Reference Guide explains the common language of Continuous Improvement (CI), a tool for creating standard work, achieving operational excellence, serving our customers better and becoming more competitive.
CI creates a system for operational excellence because it:
• Focuses on our customers
• Empowers our employees
Do you have a Leadership and Development Programme? Our programmes enhance the technical competence and behavioural confidence of your biggest asset: your employees.
1. Oregon Department of
Environmental Quality
Lean Process Improvement is all about empowering employees to simplify their business processes. Kaizen is a thorough, team oriented approach that brings together a variety of employees from across
the agency to identify ways to enhance their current business processes. DEQ Lean – Kaizen teams discover and address unidentified resource wastes, excessive processing steps, quality-issue rework,
ambiguous intent and miscommunications.
DEQ uses a five day kaizen event which features a powerful set of process improvement tools. DEQ’s Office of Compliance and Enforcement, Laboratory and Environmental Assessment Divison and
Business Systems Development program have already participated in Lean-Kaizen and have implemented quick, cost effective solutions.
How does Lean Process Improvement work?
Lean uses a series of tools that identify process inefficiencies that are common in all businesses. The team maps out the current business process, identifies all issues and determines solutions that have a
high improvement value to the business and can be implemented quickly, with little associated costs. The newly designed system is mapped and implemented.
• Lean will help your program identify who your customers are, what they need, and how to provide services efficiently.
• Lean is simply applying common sense… uncommonly
• Lean is about business process and not about the people within the process
• Lean is improvements before technology
• Lean is a set of interlocking tools and methods that deliver stellar results
• Lean is empowering managers and staff to improve business processes
• Lean identifies the customer, their requirements, and their deliverables
• Lean shifts a workgroup culture to teamwork
• Lean maps out the business processes allowing for full understanding
• Lean clarifies workgroup roles and responsibilities
What can Lean do for my program or project?
• Immediate and effective implementation, completed within 6 months or less
• Improve your process. Lean has a solid track record in both the public and private sector
• Define your customers, their expectations, and how to measure service deliverables
• Redirect resources to other business needs
• Reduce backlogs
• Springboard for continuous improvement
• Measurable results
• Improved relationships and better communications
• Reduce unnecessary products and services
• Improve quality of services and quality control
