43
Q

Waste

A

Unnecessary activities or an excess of products to perform tasks

44
Q

Process owners

A

Those persons who directly engage in the work flow to be analyzed and redisgned, and have the ultimate responsibility for the performance of the process. These individuals can speak about the intricacy of the process, including process variations from the normal. When constructing a team, it is important to include individuals who are able to contribute information about the exact current-state work flow and offer suggestions for future-state improvements

45
Q

Process analysis

A

Breaking down the work process into a sequential series of steps that can be examined and assessed to improve effectiveness and efficiency; explains how work takes place and gets done or how it can be done

46
Q

47
Q
