Planning Improvement
The Juran Trilogy
Improvement Strategies
1. Repair
• Anything Broken must be fixed
• Two levels of application
• 1. If a customer receives damaged product: FIX IT (Temporary solution)
• 2. Eliminate the root cause of the problem (long term solution)
2. Refine
• Continually improve the process that is not broken
• Incremental improvements in products, processes, services
• A strategy for both individuals & teams
• Doing things just a bit quicker, better, easier or with less waste
• Benefit: Little resistance from employees
• Drawback: Gradual change might not be recognized or rewarded by
management
Improvement Strategies
3. Renovate
• Major break through improvements
• Output may appear to be the same
• Innovation & technology advancements are key factors in this approach
• More expensive
4. Reinvent
• Most demanding strategy
• Thinking process: Current approach will never satisfy customer requirements
• A new output (product, service or activity) might be developed
• Start with the imagination that previous system does not exist
• Benefit: Potential competitive advantage
• Drawback: Potential resistance from change/new product
Types Of Problems

• Compliance (Specified by standards)

• Unstructured (Not specified by standards)

• Efficiency (from operations viewpoint)

• Process Design

• Product Design
