Efficiency and cost savings

Employee satisfaction and safety

Competitive advantage

Additionally, it is understood that in order to get maximum effect, the whole organization needs to be engaged.

This may require organizational changes to remove barriers to process innovation as well as new reward and recognition programs to encourage daily participation in continuous improvement.

The people who best know how to improve operations are the ones who are working in it every day.

ABB Core OPEX – Where do we start?

First we need to see and understand how we add value for our customers.

We deliver our customers wishes through a system of interconnected processes – a value stream.

If the processes are not mature and stable, the quality may be poor or it may take longer than expected to deliver goods and services.

Unstable processes need more inventory to guarantee delivery and maintain operational efficiency.

Our free cash is tied up in this inventory.

For us to have continuous improvement, we need stable processes as a baseline to start from.

Operational Excellence comes from continuously improving value streams of mature processes.

ABB Core OPEX – What tools do we use?

4Q was developed in ABB as a simple, yet powerful process improvement and problem solving methodology. We have many years of experience with 4Q.

4Q is an easy to learn framework for the systematic application of standard quality tools.

4Q solves problems in targeted processes by:

Measuring the process

Analyzing the measurements to determine problem root causes

Carrying out improvement activities to eliminate the root cause of the problem

Changing the process to sustain the improvement

ABB Core OPEX – What problems do we solve?

Opportunities for improvement are everywhere!

Which ones to attack first?

When our value stream is mapped and we understand its dynamics, we know what problems are hurting us more than others.

Every day when our process teams meet in the factory and in the office:

We discuss problems and initiate actions to fix them.

Uncover repeat problems that are solved with 4Q.

NPS & CCRP are a rich source of input for 4Q activities

4Q is also used for reducing Cost of Poor Quality

Cost out and capital efficiency management initiatives use 4Q well

ABB Core OPEX – Triggers for 4Q

Problem triggers from daily rounds in the factory, office, customers, NPS, CCRP, COPQ and Cost-out initiatives feed 4Q.

Daily rounds will expose many small problems and safety issues that need to be solved using the full cycle of 4Q or only parts of it.

Larger 4Q projects that eliminate problem root causes have business impacts in the tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Eventually, we will want to redesign processes and even the whole value stream for a more efficient delivery process with business impacts in the millions of dollars.

Quality, customer satisfaction and safety improves every time 4Q is applied.

Learning and applying 4Q is easy.

We do not need to know much of 4Q to start using it on our daily work

Awareness and Fundamentals training from ABB University on inside.abb will give enough knowledge to solve problems as part of a 4Q team. This training is always available online for refreshing skills.

Basic training is targeted for on-the-job training with real work examples. Training is by an Advanced or Expert level person who works in the organization. A person with Basic training can work on own 4Q projects on their own or as part of a team.

Advanced training gives a person the skills to identify problems and lead teams to solve them by root cause elimination and even process redesign

Experts can train others to the Advanced level and other Experts.

Each level is certified with a test.
