As a diagonistic tool: it allows the team to bench mark its improvement effort against best practices for Processes of similar complexity.
As a Specification for Improvement Process: It allows potential users the ability to Make comparisions with alternative technologies.
Half life concept focuses on reducing the defects from the process over time whereas Experience curve focuses on reducing cost of product over time. Experience Curve is much faster than Half line curve whereas both uses empirical data to check performances and …show more content…
Exhibit 3 shows the QIP measures in Financial system, this gives a linking data that how improvement in QIP Improves Profits and ROI of the company.
We can believe Financial Numbers as all the organizations are measured on Financial numbers not on QIP.QIP could be an internal document that should be a separate one and not to be reconciled with financial data, for internal reference companies can use this comparison sheet.
