Metrics & Measurement

"You cannot improve what you do not measure." Critical operating metrics for the process need to be established. Participants will set performance targets and review action plans to drive continuous improvement. WE Inc. helps customers benchmark their processes, set practical targets, and supply tools to monitor and improve performance. This course is typically a half-day in duration and is oftentimes combined with other course offerings.
