MAXIMIZE CUSTOMER-RELATED BUSINESS FUNCTIONS THROUGH SIX SIGMASix Sigma for Transactions and Service delivers a comprehensive roadmap to optimize customer-related business functions. Featuring how-to's for making systems such as customer billing, order processing, and call center management more cost-effective and truly "customer-centric," this reference provides the hands-on specifics required to create and implement self-sustaining — even self-improving — transactional and service strategies an practices.Six Sigma for Transactions and Service provides:A clear blueprint to money-saving, efficiency-enhancing service delivery and transaction processing Service-Sector-specific Define, Measure, Analyze, Innovate, and Embed (DMAIE), and Define, Measure, Analyze, Design and Optimize (DMADO) methodologies Innovative service operations design strategies aligned with corporate strategies Guidance and expert tips from Six Sigma Master Black Belts and Black Belts Valuable forms and scorecardASSURE SIX SIGMA QUALITY IN SERVICE AND TRANSACTIONS:Transactional Quality Benchmarks Service Operations, Corporations, and Industries • Service Performance Indicators • The Service Crisis • Transactional Six Sigma Define and Develop • Measures and Trends • Analyze and Innovate • Embed • Designing for Transactional Services Axioms of Service Design • Customer-Driven Transactional Processes • Designing Transactional Processes • Optimize the Service Design to Ensure a Robust Service Package • Transactional Business • Human Capital • Implementing TSS • Six Sigma in Transactional ProcessesAfter achieving Six Sigma improvements in manufacturing and design comes an equally complex challenge: implementing Six Sigma in a business's transactional and service sectors.Different tools, terminology, frameworks, and measurements will clearly be needed — this is why leading Six Sigma and service operations experts prepared this detail-rich roadmap. Six Sigma for Transactions and Services provides the step-by-step guidance needed to transform these costly, crucial — and far too often highly inefficient — business processes.This guide shows exactly how to design and optimize procedures and performance in areas traditionally resistant to both investigation and change. Readers will find the tools they need to:Develop quantitative assessments in hard-to-measure areas Apply process thinking in service context Apply new tools to find wasteful processes ripe for elimination Develop customer-driven transactional processes Build robustness into every aspect of the service package Optimize the company's transactional design Exceed customers expectations at reduced cost Document cost reductions, efficiency improvements, and customer satisfactionSix Sigma for Transactions and Service offers exciting new opportunities to those looking to optimize every aspect of a business. This guide is exactly the right tool for building better performance into these critical customer-contact areas — which will eventually translate into an improved bottom line, increased customer satisfaction, and greater over-all efficiency.Parveen S.
