The document describes several kaizen projects undertaken by the QC Microbiology department to improve processes. One project reduced the frequency of potable water sampling from once every 15 days to once a month, saving over Rs. 80,000 annually in testing costs and technician time. Another harmonized standard operating procedures for microbial cell banks, reducing the number of documents from 20 to 3. A further project eliminated the use of open flames inside biosafety cabinets, improving safety and airflow.
