Hello Professor and class on my journey through operational value stream used to serve customers using performance metrics, I would use the system known as KPIs (key performance indicators) to measure how a task is performed and if the goals are being meet. By using this system, it will give me relevant and attainable information. Tracking performance metrics provides a way for me to measure growth and development. Tracking performance metrics can drive planning for improvements, adjustments and changes to a business’s process to meet goals. Employee performance methods determine the employees’ productivity and efficiency in reaching established benchmarks that contribute to the overall growth of a business. Tracking employee performance metrics helps managers can influence adjustments or make necessary improvements to help employees reach their work goals. Using this method there will be different things I would be tracking quality to measure the quality of the employee performance to make sure great customer service is given, efficiency, and productivity. One of the shortcomings I think this plan would have been not always acting on it. KPIs can shape strategy and inform fact-based decision making inside businesses but only if those inside the business put the plan in motion. We as leaders always have the great ideas, but often time we do not fully go through with the plan, so then it becomes a waste of the people time and the company’s money. We also need to make sure that we challenge and always update the KPIs. Once the right KPIs have been designed, they are often never questioned or challenged in terms of whether they remain relevant, linked to strategy or continue to help the business be successful. It is important to make sure that you are always collecting the right information, collecting it often enough and are using what you collect. We need to make sure we always utilize the information that we have found.

Hello Professor Chin and class

What process metrics are used in this process?

The process metrics used in this process are the assessment of time and how long it takes to complete the inspection and how long it takes to get the necessary parts from the supply.

Describe any shortcomings, such as delays, bottlenecks, or quality issues in the process.

Some of the shortcomings are bottlenecks, manning issues, and supply challenges. We tend to find ourselves with more aircraft to fit in the inspection process than we have space and manning allocated. On top of this, we face supply issues that hinder the inspection lead times and give a higher number of work-in-process (WIP) aircraft than we are allowed. All these delays create a bottleneck of aircraft within different stages of work.
