WHY WE ARE HERE

Success for EVERY young person. Cradle to Career.

OUR VISION

A key component to a successful community includes academic achievement, and the safety and well-being of its children and youth.

When ALL children and youth succeed, our community succeeds.

Why? Because children and youth become our workforce, leaders and community members, and it’s no secret that communities who have a talented workforce attract and retain employers. With jobs, income, benefits, etc., families are able to live and contribute to a better quality of life.

This IS our true north. Success for EVERY child – Cradle to Career.Slide3

WHAT ACYI IS ALL ABOUT

Together we can do more/better on behalf of children and youth.

Outcomes based work (using Continuous Improvement) is how we are going to make it happen.Slide4

What Is A Project?

First, what ISN’T a Project?

A project is NOT a PROCESS, which is repeating the same task over and over again… A PROJECT is a unique, one-time event.A

Project has:GOALS: Has clearly defined, unique goals and deliverablesAN ENDING: Has a definite beginning and end. Is temporary and does not repeat.COMPLEXITY: Is complex enough that it needs to be managed (see the next page for more…)Slide12

YOUR BLUE PRINT

Meant to be a pencil to paper tool – not to be overthought or to spend too much time getting it perfect

Summarizes the story of the work that you are doing to solve your problem

If the problem you are trying to solve is too large for the paper, it might be too large of a problem to focus on

Meant to help you get started and is a living document that is continually updated to show progressSlide14

What are the current conditions?

What are the symptoms?

What impact is it having?

Who is involved in the work?

What is the problem?

Why is this a problem?

What measurement are you using to know the problem?

Does the data show this is actually a problem?

Where do you want to be?

What is the target you want to achieve?

What is your goal for improvement?

Consider both long-term and short-term targets.

What is preventing you from getting there?

What are the root causes?

Where will you focus your work?

What is within your sphere of influence and control to accomplish?

What will you work on?

How will you know it is working?

Be specific about the steps you will take, and identify what specific data you will collect to measure the impact of your intervention.

What happened?

What were your results?

Collect data quickly to test your theory about the problem.

Use your data to Adapt, Adopt, or Abandon.

Did everything go according to plan?

What did you learn?

Based on what you learned, what will you do next?Slide15

Definition/Purpose of Chartering the Project

Chartering the Project is formally starting and recognizing the existence of the project.A Project Charter should answer 3 key questions:

Why are we doing this project? … in the form of a basic business case or financial analysisWhat are the objectives of this project? … in the form of a preliminary scope

documentWho is involved in the project? … in the form of identifying the key stakeholders in the project.

Process Flow Map Introduction

We will discuss common process flow maps

Basic flow maps

Cross-functional flow mapsSlide19

Basic Process Flow Maps

Slide20

Basic Flow Map Introduction

Basic process flow maps are very simple mapsThey graphically depict a process’s order-of-events

Process flow maps reveal gaps, delays, strengths / weaknesses, hidden factories, etc.A project team might need multiple process flow mapsSlide21

Scoping With Process Flow Maps

Process flow maps help visualize a process and may help scope the projectEnsure the project’s scope matches the start-to-end points of the process flow map

This project’s Y statement: Improve the average order fulfillment time from 72 hours to 7±0.5 hours.Slide22

Process Flow Mapping Process Overview

Review the map and gain consensus that it adequately defines your overall

process

Update the maps regularlyVisit the actual process to confirm the map is adequateSlide23

Cross Functional Maps

Slide24

Cross Functional Map (Swim Lane)

Cross functional maps (CFMs) build on the basic process flow map

Time

Place process steps in the appropriate “

swim

” lanes

Processes move left to right with time

Align concurrent processes vertically

List

Mapping Media

Many media options are available for process mappingComputer programs: Visio, Power Point, Word, Excel, etc.

Paper: Post Its on a wall, flip-chart / easel pads, etc.Choose a media option you and your team are comfortable usingRecord your map electronically (picture, file, etc.) for future reference

Objectives

Types of dataTypes of graphsMeasures of the center, spread, and shape of the dataSlide30

Types of Data

Two types of data are available:

Attribute (discrete) data

Values are one or more of the following:

‘Counted’

Categorical (shoe size #5,6,7,8… )

Boolean (good/bad, true/false, yes/no)

Example:

number of typos per sales contract

Variable (continuous) data

Numeric values

Example:

GPA of high school studentsSlide31

Exercise: what type of

data do you have?

Slide32

Graph the

D

istribution of Data

: Dotplot Car washing process Y: wash time in minutes Measured (variables) wash time for 150 washes

Each dot is one “event” (i.e. Wash) at a given valueAs the dots accumulate, the actual process performance can be seen (“distribution”)Slide33

Graph the Distribution

of Data: Histogram

The car wash process data has been grouped into “intervals

”, with the number of times that a data point falls within a given interval determining the height of the interval bar.Slide34

Graph the Distribution of

Data: Pareto Chart

Pareto charts are used to show how frequently a defect or event falls into a particular category

Pareto charts are especially useful in the early stages of a project including initial capabilitySlide35

Graph Variables

Over Time

: Time Series

Plot

Graphically displays data collected over timeSlide36

Measures of Data Center and

VariationSome of the graphs in the remainder of this module refer to three important measures of data

CenterVariation

Shape The next slides will define these measuresSlide37

Measures of Data

Center

Mean: Arithmetic

average of a set of values, denoted by Reflects the influence of all valuesStrongly influenced by extreme values

22.02

Median: Reflects the 50% rankThe center number of a sorted list (21.94 in this case)

Is

not influenced by extreme scores

Measures of

Data Variation

Range:

the distance between the extreme values of a data set (highest – lowest or maximum to minimum)Standard deviation (σ): the square root of the varianceSlide40

The Normal Distribution

Most

natural phenomena and man-made processes are distributed normally, or can be represented as normally distributed (through transformations)A normal distribution can be described completely by knowing only the:

mean andstandard deviation

Distribution One

Distribution Two

Distribution Three

What is the difference among these three normal distributions?Slide41

Objectives

Review different failure analysis tools:

5 WhysFault Tree Analysis (FTA)

Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA)Apply appropriate failure analysis tool in exerciseSlide45

Video Example

Show YouTube clips of Direct TV commercials to illustrate 5 Whys

45Slide46

Benefits Of The 5 Whys

Help identify the root cause of a problem. Determine the relationship between different root causes of a problem.

One of the simplest tools; easy to complete without statistical analysis.

46Slide47

Determine Root Cause (5 Whys)

The 5 Whys is a great CI/Quality tool that doesn’t involve a statistical hypothesis and in many cases can be completed without a data collection plan.

Asking “Why?” may be a favorite technique of a three year old child, but it could teach you a valuable quality lesson.

By repeatedly asking the question “Why” (five is a good rule of thumb), you can peel away the layers of symptoms which can lead to the root cause of a problem. 47Slide48

How To Complete The 5 Whys

Write down the specific problem. Writing the issue helps you formalize the problem and describe it completely. It also helps a team focus on the same problem.

Ask Why the problem happens and write the answer down below the problem.If the answer you just provided doesn’t identify the root cause of the problem that you wrote down in step 1, ask Why again and write that answer down.

Loop back to step 3 until the team is in agreement that the problem’s root cause is identified. Again, this may take fewer or more times than five Whys.

48Slide49

5 Whys & FTAs

The 5 Whys can be used individually or as a part of an FTA. The FTA helps you explore all potential or real causes that result in a single defect or failure.

Once all inputs are established on the FTA, you can use the 5 Whys technique to drill down to the root causes

FMEA Definition

Failure Modes and

Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a structured approach to:Identify the ways a product or process

can fail Estimate and prioritize the risk associated with specific failure causes Identify actions needed to reduce or eliminate excessive risk FMEA is meant to be a “before – the – event” action, not an “after – the – fact” exercise, however they may be used as a factor filter when the problem does not have adequate evidence for the FTA approach

th EditionSlide59

Risk

FMEAs help organize risk assessment and track mitigating actions and resultsFMEA risk levels are numerical assessments of:

The severity of the effects of a failure mode on the customer andThe likelihood the failure may occur during the life of the product or process

andThe effectiveness of existing ways to prevent or detect the failure mode before the customer is affectedThere are many sources of risk; some are shown belowSlide60

Project Teams

FMEAs depend on a cross-functional group of experts including someone experienced in leading themFMEA teams include the project core team and project-related experts such as:

Affected operators, administrators, and supervisorsTechnical

expertsFinance / human resources / information technology (IT) expertsSlide61

FMEA Step 1

List process input, items, or functions and their requirements in the FMEA

Entries come from upstream tools such as process maps

Teams detail requirements; these should be measurableSlide62

FMEA Step 2

Determine failure mode(s)

Failure modes are ways the function or item could fail to meet the requirement as perceived by the customer

One failure mode per line; add lines to capture all relevant failure modesSlide63

FMEA Step 3

Determine the effect on the customer for each failure mode

Effects must be stated from the customer’s perspective (warning light illuminated, reduced power, delay in payment received, amputation possible, etc.)

Multiple effects may be listed in each row

Add sufficient detail to comments so future readers understand themSlide64

FMEA Step 4

Identify potential assignable causes of each failure mode

These are the assignable causes for the project; describe them as things that can be corrected or controlled

Possible assignable causes verified to significantly contribute to the problem become the focus of the project; these are what you’ll fix!In many cases, there will be more than one cause for a failure mode

Add sufficient detail to comments to be clear to future readersSlide65

FMEA

Step 5

List current prevention and detection controls for each cause and failure modePrevention (leading control): these eliminate the cause of the failure or failure mode and are the preferred ‘control’. (e.g. failsafing, automated control, setup verifications)Detection (lagging control): these recognize and flag the failure before the customer is exposed (e.g.

audits, checklists, inspection, testing, training, PMs)If an obvious control is available, the team should consider immediate action on it.

List only real, current, and in-use controls. Include documented procedures and instructions where they exist.Slide66

FMEA Step 6

Assign 1-10 integer SEV, OCC, and DET ratings to each row

SEV (1=not severe, 10=severe)OCC

(1=no occurrences likely, 10=occurrence very likely)DET (1=failure is not possible, 10=failure will not be detected) These values will be used to calculate the risk priority number (RPN)

Each failure mode will have only one SEV value

Find the highest SEV for each failure mode and use that SEV for all entries of that failure modeSlide67

FMEA

Step

7

Calculate RPNs and sort the FMEA by RPNUse the “calculate RPNs” macro command

RPN is not absolute; teams scale or bias SEV, OCC, and DET scores, even if unintentionally

RPN = Severity x Occurrence x Detection

Effects

Likelihood

ControlsSlide68

FMEA Step 8

Determine recommended actions to reduce the high RPN risks

Actions are recommended for only the high RPNsActions are derived by the team through brainstorming and other creative innovation approaches

An action can be to conduct follow up analysis!Slide69

FMEA – Re-Ranking

Save your FMEA for after all your improvements are in place!

After improvements, did the severity, occurrence or detection improve?Re-rank the same failures now that your improvements are in place:Slide70

Selecting the Best Solution

We did a good job of brainstorming ideas, what do we do with them?The Pugh Matrix is the tool commonly used for solution evaluations.Slide81

Step 1:

Form Screening Matrix

Team discusses criteria (requirements or metrics)Attach individual solution ideas across the top

.Requirement Statements on left vertical axis – Black levels from KJ

Ideas across the top horizontalSlide82

Step 2: Select

a Reference Datum

Determine datum against which to compare ideasCurrent process is typically set as reference datum

Otherwise pick “best” solution (team judgment)Slide83

Step 3: Run

the Matrix

Complete one requirement or metric at a time

Compare each solution to the current state for that requirementWhen you rate the solution against the requirement or metric, use:+ Better than referenceS Same as reference-

Worse than referenceSlide84

Step 4: Evaluate

the Matrix

The Pugh matrix document calculates the +, -, and S independently for each individual solution.Value each individual solution, no matter how many +’s or -’s that you may get from it.

Although you may get 3 +’s and 10 -’s, the solution still has 3 good characteristics and may prove valuable.Build Hybrid solutions from combining +’s. Add the Hybrids to the matrixSlide85

Step 5: Attack Negatives

Look at each negative (-) and, where possible, generate new solutions to turn it into a positive

(+)Create more hybrid solutionsSlide86

Step 6: Rerun

the Matrix (repeat step 3)

Helps verify the best solutions. Once again…

Complete one row or column at a timeCompare each solution to datum for that requirement or metricSlide87

Step 7: Establish a New Reference Datum

Based on analysis, select

new datum. The hybrid solution now becomes the datum

Gives different perspectiveSlide88

Step 8: Select Dominant Solution

Review solutions

Definition/Purpose of Schedule Management

Schedule management is identifying and tracking work tasks, dependencies, and timing for a project.A schedule helps you:

Track the day-to-day progress of workAnticipate events that can impact the project (vacations, holidays..)

Focus on and understand the CRITICAL PATH. The Critical Path is that sequence of dependant tasks which will impact the timing of the entire project if delayed or accelerated.Manage change… to demonstrate in a data-based way the impact of changes and the need for resources.

What is the power of a deadline?Slide94

Let’s Outline This Module …

We will build a schedule in 4 steps:Figure out which tasks must go in what order

Activity Time Estimates

Deterministic time estimates are used for activities:That are well defined

That are similar to activities that have been done beforeTo which there is high confidence in the ability to estimate the duration

Deterministic estimates are usually determined by:Previous experienceLessons LearnedProject documentationSlide101

How much buffer?

Option 1: Westheimer’s Rule: “To estimate the time it takes to do a task, estimate the time you think it should take, multiply by two, then change the unit of measure to the next highest unit. Thus we allocate two days for a one-hour task.”

Option 2 (recommended!): Be realistic: Where there is risk/variability, plan for it!

Be up-front: Don’t hide your buffer, make it visible!Hidden buffer may just add unnecessary time to your project: Parkinson’s Law: “Work will expand to fill the time allocated for it!”Slide102

Module Outline

Introduction to Critical Path

Notice: In this project, tasks B, C, and D can’t start until task A is complete, and task E cannot start until tasks B, C and D are complete.Slide104

Introduction to Critical Path

Now let’s map that project over time…

Note that this view of a schedule is called a “Gantt Chart”Slide105

Introduction to Critical Path

Float (

or

Slack Time)

is the amount of time that an activity can be delayed without delaying the project.Slide106

Introduction to Critical Path

Critical Path

is the path through the project tasks in which

none of the activities have slack time.Slide107

Why Critical Path Analysis?

It’s where you have the most riskIt’s where you can improveIt helps you track impact on your project when things changeSlide108

How Do I Calculate Critical Path?

You need two pieces of information: Dependencies for every task…

All tasks have a predecessor (except for the very first project task)All tasks have a successor (except for the very last project task)

Duration for every taskThen you can calculate critical path, By hand! For simple projects, you can get an idea by finding the sequence/path of tasks that takes the longest from project start to finish!Slide109

What’s The Best

Schedule Format?The best

format is the one that people will use. If your team doesn't understand and own the schedule themselves, it is less useful.You may have different versions of schedules for different audiences: yourself, the project team, upper management, or customers.

What level of detail is needed?Is time or task dependencies more important to show? There are lots of suitable formats, and none are necessarily the best: MS ProjectExcelA paper Wall Chart

A high-level PowerPoint timeline with symbolsA poster listing Key Dates for the entire project… and many more.Slide114

How do we get to actual dates?

Even at this point in the process of developing our schedule, we haven’t actually established any dates – we just have tasks with durations and dependences.

Now that we have a Gantt Chart, we can see what calendar dates are established as a result of the durations and dependencies.BUT… What if our schedule doesn’t match the expected project timing?

Customer/ Management expected completion date

Should I just create my schedule going backwards from the customer expected end date?

Why waste time doing the “forward calculation” we just taught you?The schedule you just made is the team telling you what they REALLY think it will take. This is valuable information!

You also identify the Critical Path!If you see you have a gap against the customer expectations, you need to systematically evaluate options to accelerate the schedule.Slide116

I have a gap - What a

re my options?

If you have a schedule gap, you can:Change the way we do a task (Affect Schedule)

Deliver less and drop the task (Affect Plan)Get more resources (Affect Resources)EXAMPLES:Use an analytical model instead of a hardware test

Remove half of the customer featuresHire a contractorSlide117

Definition/Purpose Of Managing Resources

Resource management is identifying and tracking the resources necessary to deliver a project. Resources include:

People (including cross functional resources, by skill type)Money (budget, including development expense and capital)

Things (including equipment, facilities, fuel, etc.)No project can progress without resources. Resources are the fuel of the project. Without adequate resources a project will “run out of gas”.Resource planning is the only way to make sure that you will really get the

resources you need. Your project will still get some

resources, but probably not enough, not the right ones, and not at the right time.Slide118

RACI

R = ResponsibleExecutes the task. Does the work.

A = AccountableAccountable for the task. On the hook for it to get done.

C = ConsultedHas input to the task. Could be an expert resource. (2-way flow of information)

I = InformedInformed of task progress. (1-way flow of information)Slide119

RACI Example

The Gantt chart we just made

can serve as the basis for the RACI

Use specific names, not just departmentsSlide120

Risk management is

identifying and prioritizing program risks and mitigating those risks by establishing and tracking countermeasures.

It is far too easy for a project team to reach the end of the planning stage and “forget” or “ignore” or just hurry past their instincts that tell them where something could go wrong.

The Nine-Box and the Project FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis) are both excellent tools for risk management. Today we will focus on the Nine-Box.

9-Box

Note that “Likelihood” is a combination of capability to detect/respond to the issue, and the likelihood of occurrenceSlide128

9-Box Tips

Don’t try to do this by yourself! As with the other tools, it is critical to get team participation and input.Don’t make the list too long!

Let the brainstorming flow as long as needed, but recognize that once you are done with the 9-box you’ll need to focus on probably no more than about 10 risks.Don’t get “stuck” arguing – keep it moving! If the team can’t agree on the priority, always take the highest priority or worst capability, and highlight it and go back to it before you are done.

Know your team’s risk sensitivity. Some teams think they are OK, and they need these tools to simply IDENTIFY the risks. BUT, some teams are so overwhelmed with worries, that they need these tools to PRIORITIZE which ones to address.Ask “Why” if the risk is too generic. Get more specifics if the risk is something like “Not enough resources”. Which resources? When?Slide129

Document/integrate countermeasuresUpdated

A3!Slide131

Countermeasures

If you can’t:avoid a risk (remove irrelevant work) and/or

transfer the risk to someone else (currency hedging, insurance) … then you must mitigate it with countermeasures.

To establish countermeasures:Get ideas from your team (yes, brainstorming again!)Evaluate each idea for its impact on the projectSelect the best option(s)Define the owner and timing for each countermeasure

Document your key risks/countermeasures in your ContractSlide132

Prerequisites For Risk Assessment

You can’t do a risk assessment unless you have a pretty robust A3.

Without clear plan, schedule and resources, during the risk assessment different team members will make different assumptions and a real area of risk might be missed.

NO TBD’s should be left on your plan!!! Write down SOME assumption before doing the Risk AssessmentSlide133

Tips On Countermeasures

The point of risk assessment is PROACTIVE countermeasures. Check yourself: You’re wasting your time if the risk assessment hasn’t changed your plan (unless you have a perfect project!).

Do not maintain a separate “Countermeasures Plan”, the countermeasures must become a part of your project plan.

This is an ongoing exercise. Managing risk is a step in creating your plan, but it isn’t the only time you should be doing it. This is NOT a product/design FMEA. A PRODUCT (or design) FMEA focuses on how the end product might fail once in use by the end-user, and it results in a change to the design or test plans. A PROJECT FMEA focuses on how the project contract might fail during the life of the project, and it results in a change to the contract triangle.Slide134

What is failsafe?

A failsafe is a means of incorporating some feature for automatically counteracting the effect of a potential failureSlide139

A,B, & C fix explanation scenario

The Problem: Automobiles are crossing the train tracks and getting hit by a train.

The “C” fix: Detection increased but not adequate.A quick, easy fix that raises attention but does little to deter operator from crossing tracks.

Risk in FMEA is better but RPN is still too high as Detection increases but Prevention is not addressed adequately.Place flashing cross signs at the crossing to alert vehicles. Dilemma: Vehicles are alerted of oncoming trains but can still cross. Problem not solved.Slide140

8 of 40

ABC fix explanation scenario

“B” fix

: Better prevention than “C” fix. Use crossing gates to further deter crossing of vehicles. Dilemma: Vehicles are alerted and have limited crossing ability; however does not prevent those who arbitrarily want to cross. Problem deterred but

not solved. Detection better than “C” but does not prevent operator bypassing the system. FMEA risk is lower than with “C” but still not acceptable (RPN is still too high)

“A” fix: Improved prevention. Solution is failsafe.Train overpass allows trains and autos to pass without incident. Dilemma

: None.

Problem is solved

.

Prevention risk is greatly improved: operator prevented from coming into contact with train.

Risk is lowered to acceptable RPN value. Go to next highest risk in FMEA and address the next issueSlide141

Each new employee will attempt to launch the newly designed plane.Team will present their documentation results.Slide154

Sustain Improvements

Recent studies suggest nearly

60% of all initiatives and projects fail to yield the desired results*Failure is not an option: Our project efforts have been structured so we will not fail

As Project Managers, it is up to us to establish process control and ensure the success of our projects!
