R&D, production and business process optimization

This programme helps teams examine R&D, manufacturing, and business processes end to end to find waste, bottlenecks, risks, and digitalization opportunities.

Optimization begins with operating objectives and current-state evidence before tools, automation, and control models are selected.

Who this is for

• Operations, manufacturing, and R&D leaders

• Digital-transformation, quality, and continuous-improvement teams

• Process owners, data analysts, and information-technology teams

Core content

• Mapping current processes, inputs, outputs, roles, and systems

• Measuring time, errors, waiting, rework, and missing data

• Prioritizing standardization, digitalization, integration, and automation opportunities

• Designing measures, small pilots, and controls before scaling

• Build an evidence-based process and problem map

• Create an improvement backlog ranked by impact and feasibility

• Define the data and measures to monitor

• Design a pilot plan before wider rollout
