Tale of Three Villages
Tale of Three Villages
The first chief told his workers, "Go forth and work. Do
whatever is necessary to build that bridge.
bridge."
The villagers established a frenzied pace, for this chief
abused those workers who did not follow his commands.
The first chief boasted to the other two leaders about the
speed of his construction. Unfortunately, because no one
coordinated these worker's efforts, the bridge was a
haphazard collection of nails and boards.boards It soon
collapsed.

Tale of Three Villages
The third chief was watching their efforts and decided to
llearn from the other chiefs' mistakes.
f h h hi f ' i k
He sent his workers to the other villages to learn what
they had done, and what they hadn't done.
His workers then developed a plan. In their first step,
they did not build the bridge at all, but focused on
creating the support columns they would need.
When they completed this task, they rapidly finished
the bridge.

Lessons learned !
Many organizations are like the first village in
implementing Total Quality Management
(TQM). They start with vague directives with
little clarity on what to do. Their successes are
sporadic and likely to fail.
Lessons learned !
Other organizations are like the second village, and
become victims of their own success. Their initial quality

improvement teams may be so successful they rapidly
create more teams, without the qualitative organization‐
wide changes necessary to sustain a permanent effort.
Some of these changes are obvious, in that companies
must facilitate, recognize and encourage these teams.

Process Redesign (reengineering) [BPR]
The fundamental rethinking of business
processes to bring about dramatic
improvements in performance
Relies on reevaluating the purpose of the
process and questioning both the purpose and
the underlying assumptions
Requires reexamination of the basic process
and its objectives
Focuses on activities that cross functional lines
Any process is a candidate for redesign
BPR
Does the reengineering consultant see the
glass as half full or half empty?
Neither!
It’s the wrong size of glass!

Steps in BPR
State a case for action
Identify the process for re‐engineering
Evaluate the enablers (Information technology, Human resources,
Organizational structure)
Understand the current process
Create a new process design
Implement the new re‐engineered process
p g p
Start all over

IMPROVEMENT PHILOSOPHY
Instill enthusiasm & commitment to doing
things right from top to bottom of firm
h h f b ff
Strive to achieve little steps forward each
day: Kaizen
Ignite employee efforts to be creative in
improving performance of value‐chain
activities
ti iti
Preach there is no such thing as good enough
& everyone must be involved
Reform the corporate culture

BEST PRACTICE PROGRAMS
Aim at
Improved efficiency
Reduced costs
Better product quality
Greater customer satisfaction
Involves benchmarking against companies
regarded as
“Best in industry” or
“Best in world
REENGINEERING & TQM
Reengineering vs. TQM programs
REENGINEERING seeks one‐time quantum gains
on order of 30 to 50% or more
TQM seeks ongoing incremental improvement
Reengineering & TQM are not mutually
exclusive
First, reengineering is used to produce a good
Fi t i i i d t d d
basic design yielding dramatic improvements
Then, TQM is used to perfect process, gradually
improving efficiency
