Process improvement, in our view, is an extension of customer service.
Your processes must be efficient and effective to deliver the best
possible customer service. Typically we perform our functions as they
have been historically performed. In other words, we continue to
perform the job in the tried-and-true way. We may also be operating
under the axiom, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
One
thing is certain, if you have even one customer complaint, there is an
opportunity to improve your processes. Process improvements do not have
to be huge to create improvements in customer satisfaction, lower costs
or increased profits. The working definition of a process improvement is
a series of ongoing, incremental adjustments to a process that allows
you to meet your customer’s requirements. Benefits are derived from
making these process improvements a continuous part of the job. If we
adopt this proactive approach, the improvements can be scheduled to fit
the needs of the business and are not reactionary.
Your
internal and external customers expect the best. Therefore, any process
improvements must involve them as stakeholders to define the basis of
the customer's unhappiness. Improved work processes will help you to
increase the satisfaction and loyalty or your customers and increase the
job satisfaction and retention of associates and team members. The
organization also benefits from improved effectiveness and productivity.
