It's critical that companies implement continuous improvement methods within their organization. These methods allow organizations to keep their costs down while improving overall profitability and stakeholder relations.
Continuous Improvement (CI) generally encompasses multiple methods of process improvement. This can include Lean, Six Sigma, TQM, and Kaizen, just to name a few. CI is effective because it is a cultural change within the organization, not a "quick fix" to an existing problem. Effective continuous improvement managers will analyze an organizations processes and develop new procedures to reduce waste an inefficiencies. They will work with company leadership and explore new ways of operating. -

TQM is an integrative management philosophy for the continuous improvement of product and process quality. An important basis for justifying TQM practice is understanding its impact on total quality costs. TQM is rooted in the belief that preventing defects is cheaper than dealing with the costs of quality failures. In other words, total quality costs are minimized when managers strive to reach zero defects in the organization. The four major types of quality costs are prevention, appraisal, internal failure, and external failure. -

Lean supply chain management involves the finances, logistics, and delivery of products or services using lean principles and requires integrated behavior and cooperation among the chain’s firms to be successful.
Supply Chain Managers oversee all aspects of products or services as they move through the chain, from the manufacturer all the way to the consumer. Some organizations use sophisticated software to manager the flow of products while other organizations may simply use spreadsheets to track goods. In today's competitive environment, having a trained manager who understands the complexities of product and information flow can be a benefit to that organization. -
