Inventions That Changed The Way We Think

These two systems if used as they were intended and not as an adjunct to management can add a lot of revenue to the bottom line of a company. This can vary from a few percentage points to doubling the companies bottom line. These systems are not inventions but simply a distillation of already proven good management. What a shame and a waste that at the best the attempt at these systems is usually all in the name of keeping auditors happy rather than the original intent which was to gain in efficiency and to satisfy customers of quality of product. As with most 'so called' inventions they are a distillation of already proven methods. But there is always a problem with a distillation, as with the jet engine, people see it being used but do not understand the function. This necessitates at least one person in a company getting to grips with the wording of the product and explaining it as best as possible to their colleagues. This is best done diagrammatically as shown: ISO 9000, TS 16949.

For this you will need the file reader from Mindmanager viewer.

If you are going to explain these systems using the MM diagrams you might as well make them live and use hyperlink connections to connect your internal paperwork to the maps.

Having done this it is an easy matter to conduct a gap analysis which can be carried out by the owners of that part of the system.

It is also an easy matter to see the overlap in the system were work is being done two or three times.

Taking out the overlap, gap analysing and instant access to documentation creates wealth and bottom line profit immediately cutting meaningless hours of meetings and releasing people to the real work they are paid for doing.
