- 13. What We Did • Case study VSM of an interesting project • Cooperation of different functions the gain different viewpoints • Gathering factual data • If someone believes a certain thing, that‟s a fact • All major steps and events from business decision to first delivery • Many observations about Quality project environment Technology • 5 workshops, 3 different groups, 3 hours each IT • Assessing generalizability of HR events Legal 13 February 11, 2013
- 14. Results of Workshops • Unparallel visibility to what happens when we work • Concrete, undeniable data that everyone can grasp • No single function was doing their work poorly, but were not cooperating in a way that is optimized for the whole • Many disturbances will hit a long project • They will make it yet longer • Calendar time truly costs money • We have some consistent, irrational behavior as a company 14 February 11, 2013
- 15. Reactions to Results • “So it‟s not just bad R&D work” • Realizing nobody had the big picture • Even execs • Shocked at the length of cycle time • Even execs • Realizing the cost of delay • Willingness to change big things • Desire for an improved value stream: New productization process “Eye opening experience” 15 February 11, 2013
- 16. Current Status: Striving to Utilize Change Potential • Project „commandments‟ in preparation • „Future state‟ versions are in preparation • Root cause analysis taking place • Applying planning mechanisms to enable 3-month projects • Spreading knowledge • Major improvement targets for next year being specified 16 February 11, 2013
- 17. Do you know how to improve your company? Are “They” preventing any improvement? Make it visual, make it concrete. Make a value stream map. 17 February 11, 2013
- 18. Any questions?
