What is Operational Excellence?
Operational Excellence is the smart investment in developing and engaging talent to be strategists at every level. Our OE discipline pursues the aggressive use of the right technology to continuously improve service delivery. We are relentless in our pursuit to remove redundancy and waste from processes. Our deeply data driven culture eliminates subjectivity from decision making and most effectively bridges service demands with available resources.
Why do we want to be excellent?
We want to fully engage our workforce to become strategists at every level. This will be achieved by creating a culture that supports a workforce that is:
Well trained
Well compensated
Provided with the right technology and equipment
Held accountable on clearly defined expectations
