Continuous Improvement
The Global IT Alliance is a living, breathing organisation. And as it changes, we are continuously improving both as an organisation and in the way we serve our customers.
A continual improvement culture is embedded into the fabric of our Alliance. We consistently capture baselines and benchmarks as future reference points and employ methodologies such as data analysis, reporting, and evaluating.
The GITA Continuous Improvement Cycle is based on a four-phase methodology: Plan, Do, Check, and Act. These four steps are carried out in the same order as many times as necessary to achieve the improvement desired.
Some of the items that occur during each of the 4 phases:
Plan: Design: Scope, requirements, objectives, roles and responsibilities
Do: Pilot: Funds, policies, reports, managing, changing
Check: Results: Monitor against plans, survey, report
Act: Rollout: Policies on improvement, assessment, communication, implementation
The primary goal of our improvement is to ensure that our customers consistently receive agreed-to levels of services and that future services are aimed toward achievable targets.
Because business requirements can quickly change, we always want to be ready.
Regardless of whether a change or improvement is necessary today, we are constantly measuring for the future. We proactively seek and implement improvements, keeping our customers’ experience as our greatest priority.
There are four main reasons to monitor and measure:
Validate: Are we supporting the strategy and vision?
Direct: Based on factual data, people can be guided to change behavior.
Justify: Do we have the right people, targets and metrics?
Intervene: Can we take corrective actions such as identifying improvement opportunities?
