Course Overview

The cost of poor quality in out-of-control intervention is rarely visible in any single budget line. Improvement in this part of quality and productivity management that is not measured tends to be reversed quietly. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of this aspect of quality and productivity management and supervised application. The professional literature on out-of-control intervention converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. Participants finish able to explain this part of quality and productivity management to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. This programme builds the wider quality and productivity management agenda from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Most organisations already have a policy on out-of-control intervention; far fewer can show it working. Participants who influence this part of quality and productivity management without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. The final module sets out how progress on this strand of quality and productivity management will be evidenced six months later.

  • Plan the sequence in which improvements to out-of-control intervention will be introduced.
  • Set the review cadence that sustains gains in out-of-control intervention.

Session 2Costing poor quality in out-of-control intervention

  • Identify the data already collected that bears on out-of-control intervention.
  • Choose productivity measures for out-of-control intervention that do not reward shortcuts.
  • Establish the boundary of out-of-control intervention and record what sits outside it.
  • Prepare the response for the most likely failure in out-of-control intervention.
