Operational Excellence

Operational Excellence
For decades, it’s been clear that when IT is involved, operational excellence is dependent on the optimized intersection of people, process and technology. Numerous approaches have been proposed and popularized over the years, from Total Quality Management and quality work circles through  approaches such as ITIL, Six Sigma and Lean, along with work by the likes of Hammer and Champy, Deming, Juran, Crosby, Nolan Norton, Taichi Ohno, Peter Drucker, and many more. With all of these approaches having been put forth, If nothing else, it’s clear that operational excellence will not be achieved by simply following a cookbook recipe.
