will reward us with the profitability necessary to secure our future. –Frederick W Smith

Institutionalizing QDM Principles within our culture is critical to a holistic adoption

Customers Define Quality Be Scientific Measure, Measure,
MeasureOptimize Business
Performance Quality Involves
Teamwork View Failures as Opportunities
Strive to understand customer requirements and expectations:
• Who are our customers?• Are they satisfied with the services we provide?
• What areas do they want us to improve?
Base decisions on facts and data, not guesses or opinions:
• Have we gathered an adequate fact base?
• Do we understand the root cause of the problem?
• Will our solution address the root cause?
Measure failures, measure variation:
• Do we have measurements in place?
• Do we monitor measurements to identify continuous improvement opportunities?
• Does the measurement tie to strategic objectives?
Minimize unnecessary effort, time, and cost:
• Do we recognize value-added vs. wasteful activities?
• Do we apply QDM/Waste Reduction Workshop (WRW) tools to proactively minimize waste?
See work as a collaborative process:
• Have we engaged all our key stakeholders?
• Have we built common understanding of our key objectives, deliverables, timeline, etc.?
Seek the truth and end the blame game:
• Do we appreciate those who identified the failures
• Do we understand root causes of the failures and do we gather learning to confirm our hypotheses?
• Do we develop action plans?
• Do we share learning?
What a culture values guides decision-making on a day-to-day basis
