“A poor performance, with a good excuse, is still a poor performance” – Jan ErasmusIs the quality of excuses better than the quality of work in your organisation?Do you have a culture whereby departments blame each other more than they solve problems? Do you sense, and probably know, that your company/department’s capacity is not fully utilised but do not know what to do or where to start?If you can identify with the above, please read further.Hi, I am Jan, and I assist companies implementing a Modular Operational Excellence approach to improve productivity, reduce unit cost, and increase throughput and quality. So in short, more outputs with less cost. It is modular, because there is no quick fix to eliminate inefficiencies that have crept into the organisation over time.It is a long-term approach, as short term does not produce sustainable results.It respects that the people in the company have the knowledge and experience to improve work processes, given the chance to do so.It involves a lot of people as departments are interconnected and interdependent. It does not follow a flavour of the month approach. It recognises the role of the first line manager to switch on and off the productivity of teams. Some people refer to Operational Excellence as Lean, Six Sigma, World Class Manufacturing, and many other branded words. I prefer a practical Operations Excellence approach and can customise an intervention that would suite your organisational language, culture and artefacts, and do not confuse, but rather inspire.
