Metrics for Major Initiatives: Practices and Metrics for Lean, Total Quality, and Real Time Enterprise Programs

Conducted by

How well do major company initiatives work? Are they truly strategic, creating deep and wide-spread change across operations and the company culture, or are they a small set of minor process changes that are tactical and may not remain a year after initial implementation? More importantly, are they having the desired impact on business performance?

Getting to those answers requires a company to measure the initiative and areas of intended improvements. This MESA International study of manufacturing companies, conducted by the independent analyst firm Industry Directions, reveals varying success and differing levels of penetration for three major initiatives: Lean Manufacturing, Total Quality, and Real-Time Enterprise.

Read this informative study to find out what top performing companies had in common, where manufacturers should look for opportunities to improve operations and how to make the best use of metrics to become a market leader.
