About this title

Synopsis

REDUCE COSTS AND IMPROVE VALUE THROUGH FUNCTION ANALYSIS How do you cut costs? And where? One of the most powerful tools you can use to answer those questions is value methodology, a systematic process that improves the value of a project by analyzing its functions. GOAL/QPC s Value Methodology Memory Jogger will show you how to apply this practice effectively in your organization. Value Methodology is unique compared to other practices, such as TQM, Lean Manufacturing, and Six Sigma, because analyzing functions and providing the highest value to the customer in a formal, step-by-step process are the foundations of Value Methodology. Function analysis, the multidisciplinary team approach, and the formal job plan make Value Methodology like no other management practice.
