Amity Business School
Key Idea
A supply of consistent, accurate, and timely
data across all functional areas of business
provides real-time information for the
evaluation, control, and improvement of
processes, products, and services to meet both
business objectives and rapidly changing
customer needs.
Amity Business School
Information Management
• If you don’t measure results, you can’t tell
success from failure
• If you can’t see success, you can’t reward
it – and if you can’t reward success, you
are probably rewarding failure
• If you can’t recognize failure, you can’t
correct it

financially, complete organizational changes
more successfully, reach clear agreement on
strategy among senior managers, enjoy
favorable levels of cooperation and teamwork

monitoring of performance by employees, and
have a greater willingness by employees to take
risks.

Amity Business School
Key Idea
Organizations need comparative data,
such as industry averages, best competitor
performance, and world-class
benchmarks to gain an accurate
assessment of performance and know
where they stand relative to competitors
and best practices.
Amity Business School
Purposes of Performance
Measurement Systems
• Providing direction and support for continuous
improvement
• Identifying trends and progress
• Facilitating understanding of cause-and-effect
relationships
• Allowing performance comparison to benchmarks
• Providing a perspective of the past, present, and
future
Amity Business School
Key Idea
In designing a performance measurement system,
organizations must consider how the measures will
support senior executive performance review and
organizational planning to address the overall
health of the organization, and how the measures
will support daily operations and decision making.
Amity Business School
Practical Guidelines
• Fewer is better.
• Link to the key business drivers.
• Include a mix of past, present, and future
• Address the needs of all stakeholders.
• Start at the top and flow down to all levels of
employees
• Combine multiple indexes into a single index
• Change as the environment and strategy
changes
• Have research-based targets or goals
Amity Business School
Linkages to Strategy
Key Idea
The things an organization needs to do well to
accomplish its vision are often called key
business drivers or key success factors. They
represent things that separate an organization
from its competition and define strengths to
exploit or weaknesses to correct.
Amity Business School
Process-Level Measurements
• Does the measurement support our mission?
• Will the measurement be used to manage
change?
• Is it important to our customers?
• Is it effective in measuring performance?
• Is it effective in forecasting results?
• Is it easy to understand and simple?
Amity Business School
Key Idea
Good measures and indicators are
actionable; that is, they provide the
basis for decisions at the level at
which they are applied.

Measurements of quality
(Products & Processes)
Challenges
Quality costs do not appear in the accounting
ledger
There is a considerable time delay between costs
and results
Accounting rules do not put quality on the credit
side
Numerous estimates to be made
There are considerable hidden costs

Phases of 5S
There are 5 primary phases of 5S:
sorting, straightening, systematic
cleaning, standardizing, and sustaining.
Additionally, there is an additional
phase, safety, that is sometimes
included.
Amity Business School
Sorting (Seiri)
Eliminate all unnecessary tools, parts,
instructions. Go through all tools,
materials, etc., in the plant and work
area. Keep only essential items.
Everything else is stored or discarded.
Amity Business School
Standardizing (Seiketsu)
Work practices should be consistent
and standardized. Everyone should
know exactly what his or her
responsibilities are for adhering to the
first 3 S's

Types of FMEA's
• There are several types of FMEAs, some
are used much more often than others.
FMEAs should always be done whenever
failures would mean potential harm or
injury to the user of the end item being
designed.
Amity Business School
Types of FMEA's
The types of FMEA are:
•System - focuses on global system functions
•Design - focuses on components and
subsystems
•Process - focuses on manufacturing and
assembly processes
•Service - focuses on service functions
•Software - focuses on software functions
Amity Business School
Benefits of FMEA
• FMEA's provide the engineer with a tool that can
assist in providing reliable, safe, and customer
pleasing products and processes.
Since FMEA help the engineer identify potential
product or process failures, they can use it to:
Benefits of FMEA
•Evaluate the requirements
obtained from the customer or
other participants in the design
process to ensure that those
requirements do not introduce
potential failures.
Amity Business School
Benefits of FMEA
•Identify design characteristics
that contribute to failures and
design them out of the system
or at least minimize the
resulting effects.
Amity Business School
Benefits of FMEA
•Develop methods and
procedures to develop and
test the product/process to
ensure that the failures have
been successfully eliminated.
Amity Business School
Benefits of FMEA
•Track and manage potential
risks in the design. Tracking the
risks contributes to the
development of corporate
memory and the success of
future products as well.
Amity Business School
Benefits of FMEA
•Ensure that any failures that
could occur will not injure or
seriously impact the customer
of the product/process.

Elements of Kaizen
• Kaizen literally means change (kai) to
become good (zen). Key elements of
kaizen are: quality, effort, willingness to
change and communication.
The kaizen attitude supports a continuous
process of incremental improvements
within an organization.
Amity Business School
Elements of Kaizen
The foundation of the kaizen model
consists of five founding elements:
• teamwork
• personal discipline
• improved morale
• quality circles
• suggestions for improvement.
Amity Business School
Elements of Kaizen
From this foundation, three key
aspects of kaizen arise:
• elimination of muda (waste, inefficiency)
• the five-S framework for good
housekeeping and
• standardization.

Performance Excellence
Based upon the following assumptions:
• People want to do the right thing and want
to be successful
• 95% of the problems workers face are the
result of the system- and leadership has a
responsibility to fix the system
• Fixing one part of the system is necessary
but not sufficient for performance
excellence
