Project Examples
Requirements
Students will work in teams and spend 10-15 hours per student working with your organization to support the development of improved quality and/or processes that your organization can execute to get results.
You will need to provide the students with a goal, issue, or gap to focus on. Areas of focus include, but are not limited to, manufacturing, quality assurance, supply chain management, and customer service.
Some project examples include:
- How do we reduce waste and variation and improve productivity in storerooms, office supply rooms, or production lines? (i.e. through a 5S program)
- Turn-around-time has increased and does not meet customer requirements. How can we improve turn-around time by 10%?
- The intake process for Clients/Customers has a high incomplete/error rate. How do we reduce the number of errors on the intake form?
- How can we better understand value from the customer's perspective? Students can perform Voice of the Customer/Critical to Quality analysis to determine what matters most to your customers.
