Learning Objectives
Identify opportunities for quick improvements, whether „Just Do Its‟ or RIE improvements
Learn the conditions that may lead to a quick improvement
Discuss the RIE methodology for quick improvement
Learn the difference between a project „Just Do It‟ and a RIE

Quick Improvement Method
The CPI training focuses on a disciplined roadmap to Process Improvement (8-Steps or DMAIC)
The key to effect process improvement is successful completion of the Measurement and Analysis phases
They set the stage for Improvement
However:
Opportunities may be identified early in the project that do not warrant extensive analysis „Just Do Its‟ or „Quick Wins‟ bypass Analyze and go straight to
Improve Phase
RIE improvements still follow the DMAIC/8-Step format but the Define, Measure, and Analyze portions are accelerated

Just Do It
When we find these opportunities there is no need to wait months for implementation
We should implement change as soon as possible to begin reaping the benefits
We by-pass the Analyze phase and move straight to Improve

Just Do It Improvement Criteria
Minimal or no capital expenditure
Low risk
Narrow scope
Buy-in to solutions by all stakeholders
Certainty the change will generate a positive impact
Improvements may be implemented quickly (within 1-2 weeks)
The project team has the authority to implement the desired changes

Just Do It - Examples
Process Step Elimination
Procedure Change
Safety Stock Elimination (Just in Case Inventory)
Communication Improvement
Supplier Price Reduction
Part Substitution
Training on Best Practices
Error Proof a Process Step
Process Balancing / Layout

Just Do It - CAUTIONS
Risk assessment must be an essential part of the „Just Do It‟ decision process
What are the potential „Just Do It‟ impacts on:
Customers/Suppliers
Other functional areas
Cost/Benefit analysis
Other teams‟ efforts
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
1111
Quick Improvement Control Plans
Quick improvements, whether „Just Do It‟ or Rapid Improvement Events, must have implemented Control Plans in place before being considered complete
It is desirable to implement improvements as soon as possible but implementation without control can be worse than no implementation at all
See the Control Plan Module for Control Plan implementation and details

Rapid Improvement Events
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
1313
Rapid Improvement Event Facilitation
RIE is the application of continuous improvement to a specific, targeted process objective
RIE assembles cross-functional teams aimed at improving a process or problem identified within a specific area
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
1414
What is an RIE?
An RIE is an Event
Defined duration (clear start & end point)
Where Improvements are made
Changes happen during event
In a Rapid fashion
Event duration is short & changes happen fast
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
15
Important Considerations
Events last from 3 to 5 days and during this period production may be negatively affected
This requires planning to avoid affecting customer deliveries
Anticipate a learning curve on the changes implemented
Document as the event happens – for example, complete Value Stream Maps and Standardized Worksheets during the event
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
16
RIE Facilitation Is and Is Not
RIE is:
A tactical facilitation method for reaching strategic goals
A strategic approach
The involvement of all stakeholders
Well planned out
RIE is not:
A tool to be used to reduce headcount
A way to do pet projects
Just an expert activity
A haphazard event
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
1717
When to Use Rapid Improvement Events
When obvious waste sources have been identified
When the scope and boundaries of a problem are clearly defined and understood
When implementation risk is minimal
When results are needed immediately -i.e., capacity constraints, setup reduction, acute quality problems, safety/ergonomic issues
In the early stages of a project to gain momentum and build credibility
As the result of Process Mapping,
work area tour, data collection, etc.,
obvious sources of instability and waste
are identified
Examples:Standardization
(SOPs), 6S, Generic Pull, Setup Reduction
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
1818
RIE Facilitation Approach
Team is 5 days full-time vs. 4 months part-time
Actual team hours may be similar
Resources are dedicated
100% dedicated for the event (5 days)
Scope is completed and problem is identified going in
Team does not have time for scope assessment
Basic data is gathered
Be ready to implement immediately
Complete as much as possible the week of event
May use tribal knowledge vs. detailed analysis
Solution may be known but historically not listened to
Allow 30-day follow-up on action items
Items that cannot be finished that week
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
1919
RIE Approach
RIE is a vehicle to implement „Quick Wins‟
A. Pre-Event Prep: Identify and plan narrow scope events
B. RIE: Implement do-now quick hit solutions during the RIE
C. Follow-up Action Items: RIE activity typically ends 30 days following RIE
The RIE approach follows the DMAIC/8-Step process
Pre-Event Prep

Event Follow-up(15-30 days)
Typical RIE Timeline
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO

RIE Follows the DMAIC/8-Step Structure
Define (Prep Week)
Clearly define the RIE objective
Pre-Event prep: Select team members, perform logistics, notifications, data collections, and prepare training
Measure (Prep Week and Monday of Event)
Validate the value-stream map of the process. Complete a resource flow layout for all operations or tasks if necessary (people, paper, material, information)
Carefully observe, then collect needed metrics for tasks or steps in the selected process
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
UNCLASSIFIED / FOUO
2121
RIE Follows the DMAIC/8-Step Structure
Analyze (Tuesday-Wednesday)
Quickly validate root causes and identify/review sources of waste
Review waste elimination techniques, then brainstorm process improvements for eliminating non-value added tasks (CVA and NVA-R as well) and reducing variation
Improve (Wednesday-Friday)
Create action item list to accomplish improvements
Implement process improvements, train employees, then test, fine-tune, and ensure the process is capable
Control (Thursday-Friday)
Create Standard Operating Procedures to document and sustain improvements
Present results to Management Team, complete follow-up, monitor results over time

RIE Team Final Presentation Purpose
The purpose of the RIE team final presentation is to provide a forum for improvement teams to inform local management of workshop findings and progress
The presentation formalizes expected results and openly and clearly communicates ownership of open action items and result sustainment
The RIE report-out presentation also provides the opportunity for management to publicly congratulate team members for successes and express appreciation for their dedicated teamwork.
The presentation flows to tell the story about how the team progressed from the project area discovery phase to the team follow-up plan.
RIE team members deliver the presentation to the management team

RIE Team Selection
Team Selection: Typically Area leader, group leader or someone close to process activities, but not a member of management. Identify team members (this can be a bottleneck- keep it moving!)
Team Selection Criteria: Optimum number of team members is 6-8. Three team members must come from the following areas: 2 individuals whom directly work within the project area (i.e. process participants), 1 individual who supervises or leads the project area (i.e. supervisor), the rest of the team can come from the following areas, in order of importance:
Individuals from the direct upstream process (i.e. order entry, purchasing agent)
Individuals from the direct downstream process (i.e. accounts receivable, customer service)
Support personnel (information technology, purchasing, engineering, etc)
Management staff of the project area (i.e. Division Manager, Operations Officer, Engineering Manager, etc.)
Other cross functions (i.e. HR, Headquarters functions, or other divisions) to provide “out-of-the-box” ideas
Insisting that management (Commander, Div Chief, etc.) participate on one of the first RIE teams is critical. This is an effective vehicle for demonstrating to the troops how important the effort / RIE is to fostering continuous improvement and motivating the team members to succeed

RIE Logistical Support (con‟t)
Process Preparation:
May want to process ahead (work ahead by working overtime) to cover for RIE work stoppages or interruptions. For example, a RIE team may want to create case teams requiring co-location - work will probably be interrupted while the furniture is moved
May need to change product mix for RIE product focus. For example, a RIE team may work with order entry to change the schedule to improve rework for a product family
