Process Excellence

The concepts of Process Excellence, when implemented correctly, are vital ingredients to the efficient and productive running of today’s healthcare establishments. The three supporting pillars of Process Excellence are; Six-Sigma, Lean and Design Excellence. Establishing the correct pathway to the implementation of Process Excellence is essential for success in this never-ending journey. The objective is to establish the current state value stream and then work to implement a much improved and optimized state (the future state).

ProcEx The underlying principle of Process Excellence – to change the culture, create flow and eliminate waste in all its forms – is logical and readily understandable. Considering its outcomes, it is clear that if Process Excellence were a piece of equipment, every healthcare manager would buy one tomorrow. But Process Excellence is not a piece of equipment; it is a fundamental change in working practices and the thinking behind them. It is an attitude of mind which constantly seeks to challenge and refine every aspect of working life. Established practices are demolished in the search for culture change, flow creation and waste elimination. Managers desperate for more space discover that they can work better with significantly less. They are able to discover the factors which really impact on their workflow; technicians and nurses walk less as Lean processes improve layout.
