2010 Corporate Quality Business Plan Goals & Objectives

Have you done your Strategic Planning for 2010? If not, hope the following

plan will ease some of your pain.

I have received Email requests over the years asking what should go into a

Corporate Quality Business Plan. It would be my hope that one would not

be necessary because quality is engrained within the company and there is

not a seperate quality department.

Unfortunately I know this is not the case in many companies and for those

who have no Quality Initiative in place perhaps this example can serve as a

model.

So I will provide an example Corporate Quality Business Plan in Stages as

they are being developed. I will use 2010 in my example of a company

called "qualityg National Operations." The most important part of a Quality

Plan is that it is integrated with the overall company strategy. All CQ goals

must lead to accomplishing company goals and objectives.

This example also can serve as a model for any department.

I hope you will be able to use the following model as a starting point for 

your own quality initiatives -- qualityg

qualityg’s CORPORATE QUALITY SERVICE

2010 BUSINESS PLAN

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The qualityg Corporate Quality Service 2010 Business Plan format has

been developed to provide guidance and support to organizational

strategies and ensure execution of the leadership platform necessary for 

our success. The plan is divided into two parts:

Part 1- Corporate Quality Service Objectives for 2010

Part 2 -National Leadership Team Strategic Quality Objectives for 

2009

2010 promises to be an exciting and challenging year for the qualityg

Corporate Quality Team. With the rapid changes in business, technology

and competition, it is vital the Corporate Quality Organization directly

supports National Operations and partner with other all out internal

departments (e.g., Customer Services, Engineering, Operations, MIS,

Finance, etc.). Our focus will be to work with these various groups and

strategy of the corporation to insure we accomplish our role in business to

build, provision and maintain our products and services. Using this

approach, the quality team will consult and advise senior leaders in

strategic planning, implementation, assessments and process improvement

activities.

We will accomplish these goals by directing our focus on improving the

customer experience by driving standardization and excellence in all our 

critical functional activities and processes. This will be executed by

developing strategies that:

· Create an organization that understands the customer and is willing to

adapt our process to meet or exceed customer expectations.

· Educate employees on how their roles and actions fit into the companies

overall structure for system optimization.

· Continue to drive the Operational Review as a value-added process.

· Reduce cycle times (order flowthrough).

· Improve standardization of activities and processes.

· Reduce National Operational expenses.

· Eliminate non value-added activities and rework.

· Reduce defect rates across Network.

· Support Corporate Quality Initiatives.

We will be successful by assuring that we meet and exceed our goals and

objectives for Service Improvement and Customer Preference/Retention.

We want our company to be the company of choice for our customers. We

will keep our promises!

The Corporate Quality Team will focus on:

● Quality Assurance,

● Problem identification, resolution and prevention,

● Continuous process improvement, and

● Improving the customer experience.

Delivering on this approach is essential to the overall strategy for 2010 andbeyond. The reality is we must consult and advise our internal customers in

using quality principles and techniques effectively; employees must gain

practical experience in applying quality methods in their daily work. The

continued integration between internal departments is a critical factor that

must be supported so that our operating styles, and cultures can be

transformed into one for the benefit of our customers. Emphasis will be on

the following items:

· Providing consultation and workshops on performance excellence and

techniques.

· Conduct Just In Time Quality Training.

· Establishing customer and corporate specific process measures and

goals.

· Conducting Operational Reviews with timely and cost effective

resolutions.

· Documenting and analyzing Operational Review data for continuous

process improvement value added activities.

· Be the catalyst for communicating downstream operational problems to

the process owners for driving upstream process improvements.

· Assist in streamlining our most critical customer affecting processes.

· Own internal/external customer feedback measurements that drive our 

decision- making policies.

· Increasing our understanding of competitive information and benchmark

“best in breed” practices to determine gaps in existing processes and

procedures.

· Continue to support ISO 9000 compliance as required (e.g., where/if 

required).

By concentrating on these strategies we will derive the following benefits:

· Meaningful measures that support unit and corporate goals.

· Systemic identification and removal of root causes to problems identified.

· Clarification of work activities.

· Value added decision-making based on data and facts.

· Prevention of problems especially in design processes.

Our ability to assist in delivering excellent service will depend on our 

commitment to develop defect-free customer service. This will be

determined by working with the appropriate departments and work groups

to establish monitoring metrics like availability, reliability, error free new

builds, rapid provisioning (defect free order flowthrough) and timelyresolution of customer problems.

By conducting a systomatic disciplined approach to our work and providing

consistently of purpose for our entire team, the qualityg Corporate Quality

Team will also focus on five key dimensions and one “Common Goals” for 

success:

1. Customer Satisfaction is comprised of all the methodologies required

to meet or exceed customer expectations and set the directions, which

ensure intimacy and customer satisfaction. This section will establish and

set measures of quality required to address customer issues and create the

benchmarks needed to ensure customer preference.

2. Employee Value - as we continue to be a major player in this

competitive market, it will be essential for all our employees to continually

improve and excel in their work functions. It is leadership’s job to enlighten,

enable, empower and encourage the behavior that drives Operational

Performance Excellence and Customer Satisfaction. Employees must

understand their roles and responsibilities and be aligned with qualityg’s

business strategies and embrace the characteristics that enable us to be a

major player in our industry. Consistent execution in a rapidly evolving

industry will be key to our success.

3. Financial competitive challenge will continue to put pressure on our 

revenue growth throughout 2010. In order to maximize short and long term

profitability, expense reduction and business growth, we must continue to

invest in capital to grow revenue with established customers and improvegross margins by assisting in increasing our customer base. We must also

manage our metrics and defend our current revenue stream from

competitors. It is clearly the responsibility of all employees to aggressively

increase our service productivity while reducing our expenses. Corporate

Quality will demonstrate cost savings by conducting value-added

Operational Reviews that will achieve avoidable costs (e.g., rework,

defectives, non value-added activities, non-standardization, etc.) that will be

eliminated through prevention and root cause analysis. Corporate Quality

will assist in obtaining additional sales and retention of existing customers

through customer specific programs. This will be accomplished while

staying within all budget parameters during 2010.

4. Quality Management will be systemically integrated throughout the

Customer Satisfaction, Employee Value and Financial Objectives. Our roleas quality leaders must be to maintain and continue to view quality as an

integral part of our day to day operations and the foundation that supports

the other key dimensions. This ensures a concentrated focus on quality

leadership and spans all aspects of quality, including training; execution,

strategies, tactics and other activities designed to measure customer 

satisfaction and continuous improvement. In addition, as quality assessors

we will provide value-added reviews that lead to improved operational

performance of our nodes, switches and other facilities.

5. Community Involvement is an integral part of our 2010 strategy and will

be utilized in Corporate Quality to demonstrate our added value to the

communities and cities where we operate and live. Corporate Quality will

develop specific plans, which will demonstrate how we enhance the value

of our company in the community.

Values: Our Common Goals. Corporate Quality Service commits to the

following values to guide our decisions and behavior:

customer expectations results in cost-of-quality work. Corrective and

preventive solutions dealing with these matters are generally referred to as

cost of quality. Cost of quality is the total dollar amount of the related cost-

of-quality work including salary/wages; material and other associated

expenses. For example, the cost of quality for removing a customer 

affecting software system includes labor costs for removing the software,

the cost of the software, and the associated processing costs, such as

paperwork and scheduling.

Strategies/Tactics:

1) A unit measure is defined as and has the following qualities:

- Generates a work activity

QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Corporate Quality strategy for 2010, will focus on establishing and

integrating the best quality concepts, and principles and continue to

educate and train our employees in the concepts of process management,

voice of the customer and systems thinking. In addition, Corporate Quality

Managers will begin to introduce as one of our roles the concept of 

“Servant Leadership.” The focus for servant leadership will be to share

information, build common visions, self-management, high levels of 

interdependence, learn from mistakes, encourage creative input from all

employees and challenge current assumptions and procedures to

determine a more value-added way of doing business.

Our customers are not going to judge us a great Operations Department, or 

Engineering Department, but rather they are going to judge us as how well

National operations (all of us) meet/exceed their wants and needs.

We will continue our ISO 9000 compliance efforts as required by corporate

(if required).

To achieve our goal to be a customer focused organization, we will

accelerate our journey to deliver customer value above that of any

competitor. If customer value is defined as a combination of price, quality

and service then quality becomes a lever by which we can differentiate

National Operations to customers.

The Corporate Quality Team is also committed to selecting a staff that has

experience, certifications and application in quality tools and techniques.We are also committed to our own continuous improvement by attending a

minimum of 5 days of quality training per year by attending outside

educational/training forums. The Corporate Quality Team will continue

Having a start up business plan is extremely valuable. It will serves as

a map showing where you are today and where you want to end up. It

gives you confidence that you know where you're going.

consider the 2010CQBPG@O to be an outstanding piece. Anyone
