OPI - Operational Performance Improvement
Operational Performance Improvement is an evidence-based participatory program resulting in significant and sustainable improvement in service level quality and lower operational costs. We identify opportunities at the enterprise or department level through benchmarking diagnostics, labor productivity analysis, service quality and satisfaction evaluation, and other tools and strategies to sustain change. OPI delivers measurable, sustainable results to help customers solve operating problems.

Our evidence-based Operational Performance Improvement (OPI) programs:

  • Use Six Sigma methodology to optimize performance through a reduction in variation and a shift in the mean
  • Identify opportunities for improvement by comparing the customers’ Key Performance Indicators to both internal and external benchmarks
  • Help customers establish targets and implement performance improvement strategies
  • Provide monitoring tools to measure and sustain the improvements
