Handle the trade-offs in workstation cleaning and calibration between speed, cost and assurance explicitly rather than implicitly.
Building Daily Cleaning and Calibration Systems for Workstations
A senior-level treatment of workstation cleaning and calibration, focused on what changes outcomes.
Course Overview
A quality system for workstation cleaning and calibration that exists only for the auditor produces paperwork, not quality. Improvement in cleaning and calibration that is not measured tends to be reversed quietly. Organisations that document this area of quality and productivity management properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. The course sets out a working method for workstation cleaning and calibration that participants can apply the week they return. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this strand of quality and productivity management has actually achieved. Participants test their assumptions about cleaning and calibration against scenarios designed to break weak ones. Improvement in workstation cleaning and calibration stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with cleaning and calibration. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to the quality and productivity management capability that would make a visible difference.
Expected Learning Outcomes

Define what quality means for workstation cleaning and calibration in measurable, agreed terms.
Align cleaning and calibration with the wider objectives of the operating process rather than optimising it in isolation.
Identify the sources of variation in workstation cleaning and calibration and rank them by effect.

Course Modules
Workstation cleaning and calibration: control plans, sampling and acceptance
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Sustaining the gain on workstation cleaning and calibration after the project ends
- Map the process behind workstation cleaning and calibration by walking it, not by describing it.
- Write standard work for cleaning and calibration with the people who perform it.
- Rank the weaknesses in workstation cleaning and calibration by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.
- Set escalation thresholds for cleaning and calibration that work out of hours.
Session 2Moving cleaning and calibration from approval to execution
- Establish what evidence demonstrates workstation cleaning and calibration is under control.
- Set the review cadence that sustains gains in cleaning and calibration.
- Apply structured root cause analysis to the top defect in workstation cleaning and calibration.
- Verify that improvements to cleaning and calibration held six months later.
Cleaning and calibration: benchmarking and continual improvement
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1What to measure in cleaning and calibration and what to ignore
- Build the competence framework that supports workstation cleaning and calibration.
- Calculate the cost of poor quality attributable to cleaning and calibration.
- Test the procedure for workstation cleaning and calibration against a realistic scenario.
- Set the review interval for cleaning and calibration and who attends.
Session 2Control plans for cleaning and calibration that catch problems early
- Set sampling for workstation cleaning and calibration on statistical grounds, not on habit.
- Set out how exceptions to cleaning and calibration are requested and approved.
- Compare the cost of workstation cleaning and calibration with the cost of its absence.

Cleaning and calibration: mapping the process as actually performed
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Reading the current state of cleaning and calibration honestly
- Collect evidence on the present handling of workstation cleaning and calibration before proposing changes.
- Record the rationale for each significant choice made about cleaning and calibration.
- Train the team handling workstation cleaning and calibration in the problem-solving method being used.

Session 2Removing steps from workstation cleaning and calibration that add no value
- Choose productivity measures for workstation cleaning and calibration that do not reward shortcuts.
- Define quality for cleaning and calibration in terms the customer would recognise.
