The Cost of Email and Shared Drives?

Our studies find that email and shared drives can cost an organization: - valuable funds.  If employees spend 8% of their time sorting, viewing, duplicating, saving, deleting, and finding documents (and attachments) this can cost an organization with 1,000 employees 24 million dollars over 5 years,  and an organization with 10,000 employees 240 million dollars over 5 years. - customer service.   The time spend in above tasks wastes valuable customer service (internal and external) time. - efficiency .

What is Six Sigma Process Improvement?

What is Six Sigma process improvement? Six Sigma focus on improving the quality of the process by identification and removal of the cause of process defects and reduction of variability. Six Sigma uses statistical methods and relies on the use of trained Green Belts and Black belts who are internal and external experts.  Six Sigma goals towards 99.99966% of the products manufactured, and services provided to be statistically free of defects. Six Sigma follows Deming’s Plan-Do-Check-Act Cycle and DMAIC (“duh-may-ick”) which has five phases, including define, measure, analyze, improve, control, and recognize. A great way to learn about Six Sigma is to become certified as a yellow, green, or black belt.  See our Six Sigma Online Classes . Since 1995, we at CRE8 Independent Consultants have assisted hundreds of organizations and trained thousands of individuals in process improvement methods and strategies.
