Cost Benefit Analysis Training Video by John Gunyou

Business Impact Details Control
 Type 1: Describe the chain of causality that shows how you determined the Direct Cash Flow. Tell the story
with cause & effect relationships, on how the proposed change should create the desired financial result ($) in
your project.
 Show the financial calculation savings and assumptions used.
 Assumption #1 (i.e. source of data, clear Operational Definitions?)
 Assumption #2 (i.e. hourly rate + incremental benefit cost + travel)
 Type 2: Describe the chain of causality that shows how you determined the Labor Efficiency savings. Tell the
story with cause & effect relationships on how the change should create the desired financial result ($).
 Show the financial calculation savings and assumptions used.
 Assumption #1 (i.e. Labor rate used, period of time, etc…)
 Assumption #2 (i.e. contractor hrs or FTE, source of data, etc…)
 Describe the Type 3 Business Impact(s) areas and how these were measured (i.e. Cost/Risk Avoidance)
 Assumption #1 (i.e. project is driven by the Business strategy?)
 Assumption #2 (i.e. Customer service rating, employee moral, etc…)
 Other Questions
 Stakeholders agree on the project’s impact and how it will be measured in financial terms?
 What steps were taken to ensure the integrity & accuracy of the data?
 Has the project tracking worksheet been updated?

Once the project is complete and has been reviewed by the Green Belt/Black Belt or other Quality
mentor, the project should be reviewed with Deployment Champion, Project Sponsor, Process
Owner, Master Black Belt and other project or process stakeholders. In addition, financial benefits
of the project (or the method used to estimate financial benefits) should be confirmed by your
Process Owner and/or Financial Representative.
 Policies & Procedures for the Improve & Control phases were documented & communicated
on MM/DD/YY
 I understand the New Policies and Procedures
 I understand and take responsibility for monitoring the Process Measurements as
delineated in the Control Plan
 I will report the progress on this sub-process on a regular basis to the customer
 I have reviewed this project’s financial benefits with the Champion, Sponsor, and Finance
 I understand the corrective action procedure and am responsible for ensuring that action
items are completed to hold the gains and capture the financial benefits

p Value Observations/Conclusion
Example: ANOVA Location 0.030
Significant factor - 1 hour driving time from DC
to Baltimore office causes ticket cycle time to
generally be longer for the Baltimore site
Example: ANOVA Part vs. No Part 0.004
Significant factor - on average, calls requiring
parts have double the cycle time (22 vs 43
hours)
Example: Chi Squared Department 0.000
Significant factor - Department 4 has digitized
addition of customer info to ticket and less
human intervention, resulting in fewer errors
Example: Pareto Region n/a
South region accounted for 59% of the defects
due to their manual process and distance from
the parts warehouse

performance is not achieved?
 Has the solution been effectively implemented? Has the team compiled results data
confirming that the solution has achieved the goals defined in the Project Charter?
 Has the Benefits Realization Schedule been verified by the Financial Representative?
 Has the process been transitioned to the Process Owner, to take over responsibility
for managing continuing operations? Do they concur with the control plan?
 Has a final Storyboard documenting the project work been developed?

Template Notes
The Lean Six Sigma Tollgate Templates are:
 Free and intended as a guide in documenting a Lean Six Sigma
Project. I grant permission for you to modify these templates to meet
the specific needs of your process improvement project.
 Instructional - a video has been linked to each Template, I selected a
mix of videos from Thought Leaders in the Lean Six Sigma Group.
I included reference links to all video’s should you want to learn more
information. Also included guidelines in the Note’s section of each
slide.
 Efficient and Effective – Placeholders for Graphic or Video Examples
for various tools and methods across each DMAIC Phase.
How to Use These Templates:
 Collaboratively – use as a guide, reuse templates independently or
across phases as needed, and change the order as needed to best
capture the execution of Lean Six Sigma in each phase, and
summarize in the final Case Study.
 Use as a Communication tool, and document your findings and
results.
