Re-tooling Operations Management for improved business performance
America’s top companies produce or sell quality products, maintain adequate inventory levels, optimize supply and operating costs, minimize business disruptions, have brand loyalty, and realize sustainable profits by employing effective Operations Management principles. Likewise, the high efficiency, responsiveness, and agility of the U.S. Military – a highly complex organization with several discrete and integrated moving parts and functions, thousands of suppliers, many demand requirements – depends on effective operations management; and they are very good at it.
On the other hand … Businesses, of any size, with nonexistent or incompetent operations management infrastructure exhibit any combination of a multitude of poor performance indicators (“PPIs”) before eventually failing as a business. Such PPI’s include chaotic operations, high supply costs, high operating costs, inventory problems, low product acceptance, low customer satisfaction, poor financial performance, low employee morale, unfocused management, lack of competitiveness, business stagnation or decline, frequent business disruptions, and product or service quality problems.
