I added $420,000+ to my department budget. Siones community❤️
My department was bleeding cash—over budget by $100,000+. Costs rising. No end in sight. No plan. When asked to fix it, I felt overwhelmed. We weren’t accountants. But as a Continuous Improvement Expert, I knew how to fix processes affecting 3,000+ employees and 100,000+ daily transit riders. -We started with a "Gemba" to see the problems firsthand with 30+ stakeholders. -Next, we built a PDCA (Plan. Do. Check. Act.) action plan. -We sorted through 3,000,000 data points and mountains of spreadsheets. -We instituted Kanban, limiting our Work-in-Progress to just 3 tasks. -Then, we used 5S to build a predictable maintenance plan for years to come. In 2 years, I added $420,000+ back to our budget. Not by a fluke. By using predictable systems. Here's what I see with people struggling in chaos and disorder: They aren't dumb or lazy. They just lack predictable systems to meet their goals. Fix your processes, and getting results becomes straightforward. I built Continuous Improvement Daily to help people turn real challenges into predictable systems using Kaizen, Lean, Six Sigma, Kanban and more.
