Lean and Six Sigma Project Methodologies by Matt Hansen at StatStuff (S03)
This document introduces five project methodologies - Lean, DMAIC, DMADV, DFSS, and PMI - and provides guidance on when each is appropriate to use. It explains the differences between efficiency and effectiveness, and how the methodologies focus on one or the other. A decision tree is presented to help determine which methodology to apply based on whether the project involves a new or existing process/output and is focused on effectiveness or efficiency. Readers are prompted to analyze past projects and potential future ones to practice applying the framework.

teamwork board.3.6.2014 final
This document describes the implementation of TEAMwork boards in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) at a children's hospital. The TEAMwork boards were developed to foster frequent problem solving and timely resolution of issues using a visual tool with red, yellow, and green sections. An example problem around critical medication IV drips was presented, showing the current state challenges and proposed future state improvements. Survey results found the boards had a positive impact and staff felt their ideas were considered. The boards promoted continuous improvement and engagement. Keys to their success included encouraging idea submission and feedback, and recognizing contributions.
Compiling Operational Definitions with Matt Hansen at StatStuff
Operational definitions are lists of definitions for key terms and acronyms used in a particular business area or project. They help unify discussion for teams, prevent confusion, and allow new people to quickly understand processes. To compile operational definitions, listen for unique terms used by the team, ask subject matter experts for definitions, and update the list throughout the project. While not required for small projects, operational definitions are especially helpful for newcomers to an area. Definitions can be included as an appendix or tracked separately and shared with team members.
Documenting a New Process with SOPs
A review of the necessity and how to build standard operating procedures (SOPs) when making changes to a process.
Problem Resolution Using DMAIC with Matt Hansen at StatStuff
A review of how the DMAIC methodology follows the typical steps we follow when trying to resolve a problem.
Erp 20090521
The white paper discusses best practices for implementing an ERP system. It recommends (1) understanding the strategic importance of the implementation process, (2) building an appropriate implementation team of mid-level managers, and (3) setting a realistic plan and timeline supported by backfilling employee responsibilities. Straying from proven implementation methods risks failure and increased costs to fix issues later.
Managing Test Environments
Test environments are important for project success and require upfront organization and proactive management to minimize downtime. Ensuring test environments are stable, maintainable, accurate and accessible can save significant costs by reducing defects, maintaining project schedules, and maximizing development and testing time. Key questions to address include what the environment will be used for, its technical structure, who will access it, and how many environments are needed to minimize downtime.
The case for continuous delivery
The document discusses the benefits of adopting continuous delivery (CD) principles for software development. It outlines how CD can (1) create a repeatable, reliable release process that automates tasks, (2) empower teams through shared responsibility and increased collaboration, and (3) provide business value through faster feedback, consistent processes, and lower costs. While initial costs may increase for training and new tools, CD can ultimately shift costs from releases to other activities and deliver software faster. The document provides a sample deployment pipeline and maturity model, and discusses managing expectations for change when adopting CD practices.
Define Phase Roadmap (Level 3) with Matt Hansen at StatStuff
A detailed roadmap through the Define phase of the DMAIC methodology that navigates the user through the various tools and concepts for leading a Six Sigma project.
Enterprise DevOps, Sergey Baranov @ AgileKitchen
This document discusses implementing DevOps practices in an enterprise environment. Some key challenges with enterprise environments include monolithic systems, static environments, lengthy approval gates, and waterfall processes that are manual and error-prone. The document proposes adopting practices like infrastructure as code, continuous delivery pipelines, automated policies, and breaking down knowledge silos. It suggests roles like Dev and Ops teams, reliability engineers, process masters, and service masters. The goal is to maximize business outcomes by increasing speed, sales, and profitability while minimizing costs. The document outlines processes for business strategy, marketing, administration, planning, requirements, development, deployment, operations, customer service, and end of life. It emphasizes that DevOps is a process of continuous improvement

Ford
The 8D problem solving process is a structured approach to continuously improve quality that was popularized by Ford Motor Company. It consists of 8 disciplines: 1) assemble a cross-functional team, 2) define the problem, 3) implement interim containment actions, 4) identify and verify the root cause, 5) choose and verify permanent corrective actions, 6) implement and validate the corrective actions, 7) prevent recurrence, and 8) recognize the efforts of the team. The process aims to eliminate root causes and prevent their reoccurrences.
Failure elimination made_simple_article_1_bk
Preventive maintenance programs that rely solely on time-based tasks are often ineffective and result in high equipment failure rates. Research shows over 80% of failures are not related to age or use. To improve reliability, the author migrated to a proactive approach focusing on asset health monitoring to determine maintenance needs. This approach identifies specific failure modes and uses predictive technologies to catch issues early. The result is significantly reduced failures and improved reliability, availability, and cost savings. Sharing successes from pilot programs encourages management support to roll out the approach for all critical assets.
Joint applicaton development
Joint Application Development (JAD) is a process that accelerates the design of IT solutions through customer involvement and group consensus building. It involves continuous interaction between users, developers, and other stakeholders through structured workshop sessions. Key roles in JAD include the executive sponsor, project manager, end users, facilitator, and scribe. The process consists of defining objectives, preparing for sessions, and holding sessions to jointly develop solutions. JAD allows for faster development with fewer errors through collaboration and consensus between stakeholders.
